论中朝两国近代西学之对应

近代中朝两国西学之对应是东西文化交融与选择的过程。作为同属东亚儒学文化圈内的中朝两国 ,虽然近代面临着相同的境遇及共同的任务 ,但因各自所处的历史条件之差异 ,两国在摄取西学的具体途径及近代文化的形成上具有各自的特点。近代中国西学以“制夷”为前提 ,因此其“师夷”显得被动 ;近代朝鲜西学则以“变法”为特色 ,因其“开化”更显自主性的特征。

The Correspondence between China and Korea's Western Learning in Modern Times

The correspondence between China and Korea's Western learning in modern times was a blending and selection of Oriental and Western cultures as well as a process of the formation and evolution of modern cultures. Although China and Korea both belong to the Oriental Confucianist circle, they, under different historical conditions, varied in their ways to learn from the West and in the formation of their modern cultures. China's Western learning was predicated on the intention to defeat Western powers, so it was in a passive position to learn from the West. And modern Korea's Western learning was known for its "reform" and autonomy features since it became more enlightened.
