摘要
《今日之日本》是日本明治二十年代国粹主义代表人物志贺重昂在明治19(1886)年的南洋巡航中用英文所写下的一篇向西方世界展示明治维新后日本文明开化状况的文章。在这篇文章里,志贺重昂期望通过展现明治维新后日本文明开化之状况,向西方世界表明明治维新后日本通过“文明开化”、“殖产兴业”已经发展为一个同西方国家一样的近代文明国家、国民国家,以取得西方国家对日本近代文明国家身份之认同,进而谋求在西方列强势力不断向亚洲、太平洋地区扩张的情况下,维护与追求日本的独立和发展。
Japan Today was written in English to introduce the Japanese civilization progress after the Meiji Restoration to the Western, when Shigetaka Shiga, the representative of the Japanese Nationalism in Meiji 20's, was traveling in South Pacific in 1886, in which Shigetaka Shiga exhibited the civilization after the Meiji Restoration and claimed that Japan had already become a modern civilized state, a nation state as same as the western countries through the modernization, therefore, to get the identification as the modern civilized state of Japan from the Western, to vindicate and seek the independence and development of Japan when the Western Powers expanded strongly in Asia and the Pacific.
