Hygienic Modernity reveals how meanings of weisheng, with the arrival of violent imperialism, shifted from Chinese cosmology to encompass such ideas as national sovereignty, laboratory knowledge, the cleanliness of bodies, and the fitness of races: categories in which the Chinese were often deemed lacking by foreign observers and Chinese elites alike.

评分晚上看张帆老师的“科学”概念的文章,想起来之前看过这本书,两者在某些方面具有相似性。 张帆老师“科学”概念的那篇文章,梳理了近代以来科学概念的演变。从西洋——严复——日本——五四的轨迹演变,时间上两个拐点,分别是甲午战后和五四运动。演变的特征是中西交织——分...
