This translation of the introduction to Wang Hui’s Rise of Modern Chinese Thought (2004) makes part of his four-volume masterwork available to English readers for the first time. A leading public intellectual in China, Wang charts the historical currents that have shaped Chinese modernity from the Song Dynasty to the present day, and along the way challenges the West to rethink some of its most basic assumptions about what it means to be modern.
China from Empire to Nation-State exposes oversimplifications and distortions implicit in Western critiques of Chinese history, which long held that China was culturally resistant to modernization, only able to join the community of modern nations when the Qing Empire finally collapsed in 1912. Noting that Western ideas have failed to take into account the diversity of Chinese experience, Wang recovers important strains of premodern thought. Chinese thinkers theorized politics in ways that do not line up neatly with political thought in the West—for example, the notion of a “Heavenly Principle” that governed everything from the ordering of the cosmos to the structure of society and rationality itself. Often dismissed as evidence of imperial China’s irredeemably backward culture, many Neo-Confucian concepts reemerged in twentieth-century Chinese political discourse, as thinkers and activists from across the ideological spectrum appealed to ancient precedents and principles in support of their political and cultural agendas. Wang thus enables us to see how many aspects of premodern thought contributed to a distinctly Chinese vision of modernity.
Wang Hui is Professor of Literature and History at Tsinghua University in Beijing.
汪晖的四卷本著作《现代中国思想的兴起》卷帙浩繁,内容十分复杂。首卷围绕“理”与“物”的关系这一个中心命题,探讨了宋明儒学的“天理”主题;次卷转向“帝国/国家”问题,先证明它们是西方(包括日本)在分析中国时使用的主导性的现代二元对立概念,再论证它们对理解清朝和...

评分汪晖这个书是近二十年左右最重要的一本书,篇幅很大,从中国思想史的角度涵盖的几乎是从一开始一直到现在,他在每一个部分的进入都有很多他自己的看法。所以我觉得可能牵涉到两个语境,一个就是当代语境,就是处在当代二十年左右的中国思想、文化、学术变迁当中,汪晖自己的一...
评分拖沓地读完了汪晖的一系列著作,读毕之时,拿出也是大概去年的这个时候读《反抗绝望》所作的笔记,加在一起,不下三十多页。不免伤怀,除了这些落在纸张上的生硬的汉字,他的思想理解了多少?知识有多少长进?恍然乎,空空如也乎。 这两个词——“视野”与“语境”——就是从...
评分汪晖是当代中国思想史界最重要也最活跃的学者之一。汪晖的专长原为文学史,八十年代末期以来曾以一系列的鲁迅研究广受好评。他的专著《反抗绝望》讨论鲁迅思想和创作的种种幽微转折,是近年有关鲁迅诗学和政治思想最有洞见的著作之一。九十年代初,汪晖的学术兴趣转向思想史,...

评分教主其实很多想法,对中国史研究的脉络梳理比徒子徒孙不知道强到哪里去。但是很多时候还是流于空疏。
