民国广州基督徒知识分子与基督教中国化的努力——以钟荣光、张亦镜为例

Guangzhou's Christian Intellectual Community in the Era of ROC and Their Efforts in Indigenizing Christianity:with Zhong Rongguang and Zhang Yijing as Examples

本文着重以两位基督徒知识分子为例,分析和探讨广州基督徒知识分子的努力。其中钟荣光是教育家,张亦镜是作家和编辑家。在他们的思想和实践中,既体现了对基督教信仰的坚定立场,也体现了对中国传统文化的深刻理解和真诚守护,更体现了他们作为知识分子为融合两种不同的文化价值,尤其是使外来的基督教融合进中国社会与人的生活而做出的不懈努力。

Through the examples of Zhong Rongguang and Zhang Yijing,this article attempts to explore how the Christian intellectual community in Guangzhou tried to indigenize Christianity. Zhong Rongguang was a famous educator who became the first Chinese President of Lingnan University and Zhang Yijing was an eminent writer and editor in his time. Whether in theory or in practice,they remained firmly adamant to their Christian faith while at the same time demonstrating a deep understanding and sincere patronage of traditional Chinese culture. Being intellectuals,they made unremitting efforts in integrating the two cultural values and,in particular,incorporating Christianity into Chinese society and Chinese way of life.
