文化民族主义话语与辛亥革命时期华侨祖国认同的构建

The Discourse of Cultural Nationalism and Construction of Overseas Chinese Identity during the 1911 Revolution

论文从认同建构和华侨动员的视角,通过梳理辛亥革命时期相关的报刊、文集等史料,探讨这一时期改良派和革命派如何运用文化民族主义话语来构建华侨的祖国认同,并将他们吸纳到祖国政治变革的实践中。随着清末民族危机的不断加深,以孙中山为首的革命派和以康梁为首的改良派等政治势力,在救亡图存的道路上先后将目光投向海外华侨,通过倡导儒家文化,讴歌中华民族的辉煌历史和开拓精神,运用民族英雄的历史叙事赞扬或倡导华侨的爱国主义精神,引导华侨学习中国语言文化以恢复或保持中华文化特性,从而构建华侨对祖国的认同,争取散居世界各地的华侨对他们各自政治主张的支持。

Based on an analysis of newspapers and other publications produced during the late nineteenth century,the paper discusses the formation of the discourse of Chinese cultural nationalism and its implications.Both Kang Yu-wei-led reformists and Sun Yat-sen-led revolutionaries were active in making use of cultural nationalism to mobilize the Chinese Diapsora to give support to political changes in China.Through a wide range of means such as advocating Confucianism,glorifying Chinese history,and promoting Chinese-language education,reformists and revolutionaries enabled overseas Chinese to revitalize and reinforce their cultural identity,which in turn motivated them to participate in the process of China’s modernization.In short,cultural nationalism played a significant part in creating the modern Chinese nation state, especially during the 1911 Revolution.
