Krátky popis
'China's first iconic modern intellectual. His lucid and prolific
writings, touching on all major concerns in his own time and
anticipating many in the future, inspired several generations of
thinkers' Pankaj Mishra'A country does not become corrupt and weak
overnight. Rather, we are now reaping the evil harvest of what
previous generations sowed.'The power, anger and fluency of Liang
Qichao's writings make him one of the towering figures in modern
Chinese literature.He saw his great, almost unmanageable task as an
attempt to write China into the new era - to provide an ancient
country, devastated by civil war and foreign predators, with the
intellectual equipment to renew itself. Liang said that he wrote
from an 'ice-drinker's studio', implying that underneath his
dispassionate, disabused and rational tone lay an ardour and
passion which only ice could cool. China could only recover through
a clear-sighted, informed understanding of its enemies - and by
engaging in a thorough-going self-critique.Liang did not propose
aping the West but taking only what China needed to 'renew the
people' and create 'new citizens'. Then China would be able to
expel its invaders, reform its society and become a great power
once more. This selection of pieces shows Liang's extraordinary
range and the burning sense of mission which drove him on,
attempting to galvanize and refresh an entire nation.Blending
together Confucianism, Buddhism and the Western Enlightenment,
Liang's ideas about nation, democracy, and morality had a profound
impact on Chinese visions of the political order, though the China
that eventually emerged from the further disasters of the 1930s and
1940s would be a very different one.
