以“民族主义”阐释中医药——民国中医界的话语选择(1912—1937)

The Interpretation of Traditional Chinese Medicine With Nationalism

自"科学"一词传入近代中国后,在科学话语下,中医始终因"不科学"而遭到一些人的否定。为争取话语权,中医选择了"民族主义"作为突破口。在民族主义话语下,中医显然占据了优势,而西医则处于劣势。用民族主义阐释中医药确实起到了保护中医药的作用。但中西医学都运用对自身有利的话语攻击对方,很容易形成自说自话的局面,难以在同一问题上展开对话。

After ＂science＂ came to modern China,in scientific discourse,traditional Chinese medicine was denied by some people as ＂unscientific＂.To fight for the discourse power,Chinese people who believed in traditional medicine chose ＂nationalism＂ as a breakthrough.In nationalist discourse,the traditional Chinese medicine clearly had an advantage,but Western medicine was at a disadvantage.Integration of traditional Chinese medicine with nationalism played a role in its protection.However,supporters of Chinese and Western medicine used words to attack each other,which,while talking was easy,made it difficult to have effective dialogue on the issue.
