拂晚清之“尘”,还历史以本真——读张向东《清末白话报刊与文学革命》

Sweeping“Dust”of Late Qing Dynasty and Returning Authenticity of History——Reading Zhang Xiangdong’s Vernacular Press and Literary Revolution in the Late Qing Dynasty

新世纪以来,学界对清末白话报刊的研究日渐增多,但对清末白话报刊与文学革命关系的研究显得薄弱。张向东新著《清末白话报刊与文学革命》通过钩沉、梳理大量史料,对清末白话报刊与文学革命的关系作了细致考证,实现了将五四文学革命置入晚清以来一脉相承的文学变革历程的“初衷”。

Since the new century,the research on vernacular press in the late Qing Dynasty has been increasing,but the research on the relationship between vernacular press and literature revolution is weak.Zhang Xiangdong’s new book,Vernacular Press and Literary Revolution in the Late Qing Dynasty,has made careful research on the relationship between vernacular press and literary revolution by combing through a large number of historical materials,and realized the“original intention”of placing the May Fourth Literary Revolution into the continuous process of literary reform since the late Qing Dynasty.
