Ecological literature: a way of life and aesthetics

Location:Good books explore WeChat video number, Peking University Boya Forum APP, Tik Tok, etc.

Guest:Hu Zhihong (Professor, School of Humanities, Southwest Jiaotong University) and Ai Lian (Director and Researcher, Institute of Literature, Sichuan Academy of Social Sciences)

With the increasingly serious ecological crisis, "ecological literature" has increasingly become an important literary category that people pay attention to. Thoreau’s Walden Lake, rachel carson’s Silent Spring, Leopold’s Yearbook of Shaxiang, Wordsworth’s natural poems and other eco-literary classics, like long-ringing alarm bells, also nourish modern people with eternal spirit. As a relatively new literary force, how did ecological literature rise? How should we define "ecological literature"? What should excellent ecological literature be like, and how should we enter the temple of "ecological literature"? On January 15th, we were fortunate to invite Professor Hu Zhihong from Southwest Jiaotong University and Professor Ai Lian, director of the Institute of Literature of Sichuan Academy of Social Sciences, to lead us into the vibrant world of "ecological literature".

The Last Confucian Minister: Zhang Zhidong and the Frustration of Modern China Thought

Time:January 16th (Sunday) 9:00.

Location:ZOOM conference (ID: 86100339423, password: 005512)

Guest:Lu Yin (Associate Professor of Chinese Department of Peking University) and Ji Jianqing (Associate Professor of Chinese Department of Peking University)

Under the ideological atmosphere of advocating utilitarianism in the late Qing Dynasty, Zhang Zhidong always paid attention to culture and education while setting up industry. From the time when he left the Hongjian Academy and Bookstore in the school administration period to the time when he took over as the governor of Guangdong, Guangxi and Huguang, he founded Guangya and Huhu Academy, all of which were supported by academics. Since Guangxu Jiawu (1894), on the one hand, Zhang Zhidong devoted himself to setting up a pilot school, formulating the academic system, and promoting the transformation of culture and education in order to save the nation and protect the species; On the other hand, they want to survive China’s inherent politics and religion in the new school system, or "invent tradition" and shape the identity of the cultural nation. In the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the issues of "quintessence of Chinese culture", "reading classics" and the dispute over scientific metaphysics can all be found in Zhang Zhidong’s cultural and educational thoughts. Just as the Guimao school system led by it laid the foundation for the modernization of education in China in the 20th century, the mediation of Confucian scholar Zhang Zhidong between ancient and modern China and the West also explored an approach within the system for the development of modern China thought.
