近代中國外交官與日本文人的思想及典籍交流

The Interactions between Chinese Diplomats and Japanese Scholars of Modern Times－in the Fields of Philosophy and Ancient Works

本文以1877年晚清的駐日公使館開館之後為時代背景，探討何如璋、黎世昌、楊守敬等晚清駐日外交官在日考察之內容與得失。他們都有以下的共同點，一為三人都是接受中國傳統儒教文化教育的晚清官僚，二是三人皆為晚清對日外交的前鋒人員、官方代表。他們也是明治初期第一批踏入日本，調查或見證過日本政治、社會近代化的諸相，同時也是直接與日本知識分子交流的日本研究集團。本文藉《使東述略》、《日本訪書志》等相關文獻，分析近代中日兩國人物在思想交流上的異同現象，同時也藉由學界很少利用的《清客筆談》，論述楊守敬將失佚已久的古籍珍本從近代日本回流中國的典籍交流之歷史意義。

As we know, the Ching Dynasty founded its Embassy in Japan in 1877. In this paper, we are going to make a survey of the accomplishments and the gains and the losses of Ru-Zhang He, Shi-Chang Li and Shou-Jing Yang, the ministers accredited to Japan. We try to discuss the differences and similarities between the ideas and philosophy of Chinese and Japanese with the literary and historical data--Shi Dong Shu Lue and Ri Ben Fang Shu Zhi. In the meantime, using the book Qing Ke Bi Tan, we are going to talk about the historical meaning of Yang's bringing back to China the missing ancient books and rare editions.
