《晚清的士人与世相》内容简介
19世纪中叶到20世纪初,晚清中国因中西交冲而发生历史大变局,在回应西潮逼来的漫长过程里,传统文化养育出来的士人,作为七十年间回应西潮的主体,效西法图自强,深深卷入历史变迁的过程,一代一代地在古今中西之争中为民族寻路,因之而有前后相继的思想潮流和社会变革,与儒学相依的传统士人自身也发生了节节嬗蜕。
本书汇积了作者对晚清士人及他们那个世界的思考、理解和解释,围绕着科举制度下的功名与富贵、世运盛衰中的学术变趋、晚清的清流与名士、十年新政与社会解体等主题,通盘解读近代化过程中的士人和社会,融深刻的洞察于历史叙述之中,很富于思想启发。
增订本新补一文,论甲午乙未间清流的重起和剧变,这是作者近年对晚清士人世界再考察的力作,依然贯彻了透过士人看世相的切入角度。

In the long process of responding to the Western tide, scholars brought up by traditional culture, as the main body of responding to the Western Tide for 70 years, were deeply involved in the process of historical change, and generation after generation, they sought the way for the nation in the conflict between ancient and modern China and the West.
