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.

评分近年来,真正有价值,有分量的书,真的不多,这本书算为数不多的几本中的一本吧!学人的气魄从导言中已可见一斑,当然,我只能这么说,因为我只看了导言,而且只一部分。
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,...
评分从2010年初开始,媒体上有关于清华大学教授汪晖是否剽窃的热烈讨论。南京大学教授王彬彬先指责汪的《反抗绝望》剽窃,后又指责其《现代中国思想的兴起》(三联书店2004年版)剽窃。但是,汪晖的支持者否认这种指责,而汪本人也在沉默数月后表态,为自己作辩护。 《兴起》四大册...
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。
