摘要:

“新文化”之所以“运动”起来,关涉某些身兼“思想家”与“运动家”角色的人物。蒋梦麟与江苏省教育会同人依托“欧战”后举国求新的氛围,在沪组建新教育共进社,联结南北以谋全国文教新潮之起。关于何为“新潮”,蒋梦麟将之统一于“平民主义”;在此主义与相应立场影响下,蒋梦麟早早将五四爱国风潮“自然”并接既起的文教新潮,继而以不同于蔡元培、胡适诸人的方式,参与促成五四后“新文化运动”的兴起。然而蒋梦麟转至北京大学,东南方面对于“新文化”的界定意识与权力更趋弱化。以蒋梦麟在五四前后的言行为主线,结合相关的组织行为逻辑,可揭示新文化运动“生成”史在聚焦于北京大学或《新青年》的叙述之外的一个重要面相。

Abstract:

The rising of the “New Cultural Movement” was closely related to some figures, each of which was both a thinker and an activist. At the atmosphere that the whole nation was pursuing novelty in China after the war in Europe, JIANG Meng-lin, together with his fellows in Jiangsu Education Association, set up New Education Co-advance Association in Shanghai and connected the south and the north to promote the rising of a new trend of cultural education nationwide. Pertaining to “what is the new trend”, JIANG defined it as “populism”; influenced by this doctrine and related stance, JIANG connected the new trend of cultural education with the unexpected political May Fourth patriotic trend, and hence helped promote the rising of the “New Cultural Movement” after the May Fourth Movement in a way different from that of CAI Yuan-pei, HU Shi and others. After JIANG’s appointment in Peking University, however, the awareness of the definition of the “New Culture” and that of power in the Southeast became even weaker. By regarding JIANG’s words and deeds as the main clue and combining his logic of behaviors before and after the May Fourth Movement, we can reveal another important aspect besides the main narrative of Peking University and New Youth in the history of the rising of the “New Cultural Movement”.

Key words: JIANG Meng-lin, pre-May Fourth history, New Cultural Movement, New Education Co-advance Association, Jiangsu Education Association
