Re-examining China's "modern Times": between Thought and Society
by Sun Jiang
About This Novel
Looking back at Chinese history in the past forty years, social history emerged in the first ten years, and conceptual history became prominent in the second decade. Social history explores the context behind a text, while conceptual history focuses on the language and structure of the text. This book is divided into four parts with twelve chapters. The first part examines the relationship between Manchu and Han under the Qing rule, the second part combs through the introduction and reproduction of modern Western knowledge, the third part discusses the self/other relationship inherent in "modern China" from the perspective of religion, and the fourth part involves the method of historical understanding. As an empirical research monograph that interprets the outline of "modern China", this book believes that the interactive use of social history methods and conceptual history methods can be regarded as a feasible way to get rid of metaphysical entanglements.
