19世纪晚期中西文化观的转变

Transformation of the Concept of Chinese and Western Culture at the End of 19th Century

19世纪晚期出现的"中西会通"观,既是"中体西用"论自然发展的产物,也是对"中体西用"观的突破。"中西会通"观与"中体西用"观的本质区别在于,它不再将中西学看作不对等的关系,而是在引入现代性的基础上,全面承认中西文化的对等地位,主张二者的平等结合和交融,以实现中学与现代性的同步与重构,并为传统文化的转换创新提供了一条别开生面的新思路。

The principle of the combination of Chinese and Western culture at the end of the 19th century is the product of natural development and breakthrough of the principle of Chinese learning for systems and Western learning for practical application. Their essential difference is that Chinese and Western cultures are no longer considered as asymmetrical relationship, rather they have equal status with the introduction of modernity. It advocates Chinese and western culture be equal and be combined to achieve simuhanehy and reconstruction between tradition and modernity, and provide a new creative perspective for the spectacular transformation of traditional culture.
