日本思想史脉络中的中国--以竹内好的中国论述为例

China in the Context of Japanese Intellectual History:Takeuchi Yoshimi's China Narrative

日本战败之后,经历战争的一代知识分子曾经为实现中日邦交正常化而致力于思想与知识生产,但随着世代更迭,战争记忆的传承在思想史上经历了一个断裂时期,而日本的学院体制也妨碍了其中国观的建设性发展。竹内好在这个时期敏锐地察觉到,日本社会对中国日益失去探求心的现象背后隐藏着一个巨大的危险,即在日本,中国有史以来第一次成为“未知国度”。中日之间为了真正消除战争,相互理解并不能仅仅停留在友好的层面,竹内好设想的“内在于日本的中国”至今对我们仍具有认识论的启示意义。

Since the defeat in the WWII,Japan has severed its diplomatic relations with China.A generation of Japanese intellectuals who have experienced war once devoted themselves to the production of ideas and knowledge for the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan.However,with the change of generations,the inheritance of war memory has gone through a period of rupture in intellectual history,and the Japanese academy system has also hindered the constructive development of Japan’s view of China.Takeuchi Yoshimi was keenly aware during this period that there was a huge danger hidden behind the phenomenon of Japanese society’s increasingly losing interest in China,that is,in Japan,China has become an "unknown country" for the first time in history.With the aim of truly eliminating the war between China and Japan,the mutual understanding can not only remain at the level of friendship.Takeuchi’s vision of "China within Japan" still has epistemological inspiration.
