试析梁启超的身体政治观

A Tentative Analysis of Liang Qichao's Body Politics

19世纪中晚期,中国正处于一个危机四伏的时代,梁启超以巨椽之笔,鼓吹身体改造对中国救亡的重要,形成了一系列身体政治思想。他认为国土犹如身体,国家和身体一样是自然淘汰的结果,国民身体的好坏直接关系到国家的强大。他主张建立一种新的身体样式,即新民,为此,首先,摆脱奴隶身体树立国民身体;其次,摆脱个人身体,树立群体身体。他还主张晚婚、胎教与反缠足,主张身体的生产性。梁启超的身体思想植根于中国古代的"修身养性"和近代的"身体救亡"理论。对梁启超身体思想进行系统论述与认真总结,对当前身体研究和身体开发有重大的现实意义。

During the late 19th century when China was at great peril, Liang Qichao advocated the importance of body transformation and came up with some body politics. He thought that the condition of people＇s health had direct bearings on the strength of the country. Therefore, he put forward the idea of new citizens, which was rooted in ancient China＇s doctrine of ＂self- cultivation＂ and ＂saving the nation through strong bodies＂. Delving into and summarizing Liang＇s body politics is of significance to present body studies and development.
