This study in German offers profound insights into the life and
thoughts of Wang Guowei (1877-1927). Like many intellectuals who
strongly perceived the necessity of reforms in the waning years of
the Late Qing dynasty, i.e. after the Opium wars, Wang sought to
strengthen China's position against foreign, in particular Western,
powers. Contrary to earlier approaches, which either advocated a
close adherence to Confucian traditions or tried to adapt only
elements of Western material culture, mainly industrial and
military technology, Wang Guowei aimed at reviving traditional
Chinese culture by analysing its source texts using a modern
scientific approach (and thereby started the discipline of guoxue
[national studies]) and simultaneously adapting compatible elements
of Western immaterial culture. Thus, Wang became known as an
authority on Chinese paleography as well as on German philosophy,
especially Kantian epistomology.
