再论中央研究院第一届院士选举——以金陵大学农学院为中心的考察

Rediscuss the First Election of Academicians of Academia Sinica:Centered of Agricultural College of University of Nanking

民国时期中央研究院第一届院士选举是当时学术界的一件盛事,标志着中央研究院国家学院体制的最终完成。金陵大学农学院开中国四年制农业高等教育先河,在国内外享有盛誉,但第一届院士农科中并没有金陵大学农学院的教授,但并不能就此贬低金陵大学农学院的成绩。第一届院士中有多位曾在金陵大学任教过或是金陵大学农学院的毕业生,都是金陵大学农学院的校友,从选举结果也能解读出教会大学在学术界处于边缘的地位。本文试从第一届院士选举的视角,来考察金陵大学农学院的发展,也借以透过这个窗口,来探究当时学界的文化生态和学术资源的群落分布。

The first election of Academicians of Academia sinica marked the final accomplishment of national academe system. The agricultural college of University of Nanking set a precedent for four years of agricultural higher education. But among the first batch of academicians, there was no professor from Nanking, which didn＇t belittle the agricultural college of University of Nanking＇s achievement. The results of election couldn＇t unscramble the marginal status of church university. The article is to study the development of agricultural college of University of Nanking from perspective of the first election of academicians, and also to explore the distribution of the cuhural ecology and academic resources in the academic community at that time.
