中国知识分子阶层的社会观和文化观,在戊戌维新前后发生了重大变化。这种意识形态方面的深刻而且具有划时代意义的变革,使中国近代资产阶级的思想史、文化史和学术史得以肇始。戊戌思潮激发起中国政治生活和社会风俗的种种变化,这两方面虽然各有鲜明的特点,但是,新旧交替的因素多、周期长、错综复杂,则是它们的共同之处。戊戌人物既是新社会观和文化观的开路先锋,又是旧营垒的宿将和传统观念的殉葬品,他们是过渡时代与过渡社会的过渡人物。正是这种各方面都自相矛盾又自相统一的状况,构成了他们独特而鲜明的个性,规定了他们的历史地位。 The social outlook and cultural values ​​of the Chinese intelligentsia have undergone major changes before and after the Reform Movement of 1898. This profound and epoch-making change in ideology has given rise to the initiation of the ideological, cultural and academic history of the modern Chinese bourgeoisie. The trend of thought in 18und excites various changes in political life and social customs in China. Although these two aspects have distinct characteristics, there are many factors alternating between the old and the new, with long periods and complicated meanings, all of which are in common with each other. The people of Wu Xu are not only pioneers of the new social concept and cultural concept, but also sacrifices of old camp lords and traditional conceptions. They are transitional people in transitional times and transitional societies. It is this contradictory and self-unifying state in all its aspects that constitutes their unique and distinctive personality and regulates their historical status.
