中国的知识分子似乎和政治的瓜葛特别深,近现代尤其如此。大家熟悉的朱自清和闻一多,我们在其作品中似乎看不到多么强烈的政治色彩,但是,他们声名的得来却在很大程度上是因为政治。单纯的知识分子,世俗名声往往都不大,比如顾随和许地山。最近读谢泳的新书《书生的困境》,这种感觉就更加强烈。一个典型的例子是谢泳书中说到的王瑶。王瑶师从的,正是朱自清和闻一多,但谢泳通过梳理之后注意到,在王瑶的学术道路中,存在比较深的“陈寅恪影响”。这在以前的王瑶研究中很少被注意到。 Chinese intellectuals seem to have a particularly deep relationship with politics, especially in modern times. We are all familiar with Zhu Ziqing and Wen Yiduo, and we do not seem to see any strong political overtones in their works. However, their reputation is largely due to politics. Simple intellectuals, secular reputation is often not large, such as care and Xu Shan. Recently read Xie Yong’s new book, “the scholar’s dilemma,” this feeling even more intense. A typical example is Xie Yao said Wang Yao. Wang Yao, who is from Zhu Ziqing and Wen Yiduo, but Xie Yong through the carding after noted that in the academic path of Wang Yao, there is a deeper “Chen Yin Ke influence.” This is rarely noticed in previous studies of Wang Yao.
