A Comment on Xu Guangqi's Construction about Chinese Present Mathematics View

明末清初是中国科学史发展的一个关键时期,这一时期本土的科学发展已渐渐停滞。本文试图分析明代中国数学发展停滞的文化原因,并对比中西对科学技术的不同态度,以期综述徐光启在翻译《几何原本》的过程中所构建的近代数学观。

In late Ming and early Qing dynasty,Chinese science development entered a critical period,the local science and technology development has gradually stagnated in this period.This paper attempts to analyze cultural reasons of Chinese mathematics stagnation in Ming dynasty,and contrast the different attitudes about Chinese and western science and technology,in order to summarize the modern mathematics view which Xu Guangqi constructed in the process of translating Euclid＇s Elements.
