五四前后《东方杂志》对“文化杜威”的译介

Oriental Miscellany's Selective Translation to Cultural Dewey during the New Cultural Movement

1919年杜威访华,《东方杂志》借此进行了隆重的文化演绎。首先是以清初颜李学派与之相比附,将杜氏实用主义哲学看成是"发明"自身传统的一种手段;其次是在向中国读者介绍实用主义"科学哲学"之际,试图用"实验的方法"检视涌进中国的各种"主义"的真伪;再次是借杜威对中国文化之"同情的理解",间接回应"全盘西化"等激进观点,重拾对"东方文化"、"中国道路"的自信。《东方杂志》对杜威的跟踪报道、深度介绍、广泛翻译、重点解读,无一不透露出丰富的文化意味,无一不打上鲜明的态度烙印。

In 1919 Oriental Miscellany Carry out a Grand Cultural interpretation by taking the opportunity of Dewey＇s visit to China.

The second is to examine the authenticity of the various doctrine in China by using the experimental approach. Again is indirect response westernization and other radical views, and regain self-confidence of the Oriental Culture and chinese road by Dewey＇s sympathetic understanding to China culture. The Magazine＇s activities about Dewey, such as follow-up dispatch, depth introduction and focus interpretation, often reveal a rich cultural meaning, and mark with a distinctive attitude.
