南中国海研究文录:近代文学的连通地气与吸纳西风
Li Siqing Long Qilin Leng Chuan
This book is a phased result of the "Research on the History and Culture of the South China Sea" project chaired by Professor Yang Yi at the University of Macau. The topics include the spread of Western learning to the east, the arrival of Catholic and Protestant missionaries in China, Chinese and English newspapers and periodicals in South China in the 19th century, and nationalism in the first half of the 20th century. The three authors focus on specific and nuanced individuals, textual cases or typical events, and use the analysis of original historical materials or representative literary works such as newspapers, archives, etc. To try to examine the encounter and collision of Chinese and Western cultures in modern times from a longer historical context. From the arrival of Catholic and Protestant missionaries to China, to the new changes in the printing and publishing industry and the large-scale publication and circulation of Western and New Learning reading materials in the second half of the 19th century, to the rise of nationalist trends in the "May 30", "Shaji" and "Wanxian Incident" in the first half of the 20th century, this long and bumpy history of encounters and negotiations between China and the West is worthy of our review and consideration again and again. As for the "South China Sea" in the title, it refers to China's South China and southeastern coastal areas; "Modern Literature" is the research interest and professional background of several authors, and the meaning of "Modern Times" is relatively broad and is not limited to 1840 to 1919; "Connecting the Earth" is the hope that literary research can connect history, geography and living people; "Absorbing the West Wind" is the main theme that runs through each section of the book.
