"五四之後：當代人文的三個方向" －夏志清、李歐梵、劉再復"國際學術研討會

簡介

2019年5月4日是「五四」運動百年紀念日。一百年來，「五四」精神遍傳大陸、港臺、歐美，眾聲喧嘩，呈現出各種不同的樣態，也引發互為鏡像的對話。為了更好地紀念與反思、發揚「五四」精神，香港科技大學將於2019年5月9日至10日舉辦「五四之後：當代人文的三個方向—夏志清、李歐梵、劉再復」國際學術研討會。此次會議由哈佛大學王德威教授和香港科技大學劉劍梅教授聯合主持，由香港科技大學賽馬會高等研究院、人文學部和田家炳基金會組織和贊助。會議將以五四百年為背景，聚焦夏志清、李歐梵、劉再復三位學者的學思歷程，探討他們所代表的當代人文的三個方向——「感時憂國」、「對話世界」和「放逐諸神」。據此，我們希望尋繹五四精神對於當代人文發展的影響，思考未來人文學思的可能。

Overview

This year marks the centenary of the May Fourth Movement, which was not simply a political movement but also a cultural revolution vigilantly advocating the spirit of enlightenment, individualism, democracy, science, freedom of thought that had significant and far-reaching impacts upon Chinese culture and modernity. To commemorate this notable historical event, the HKUST IAS and HUMA will organize an important conference during May 9-10 to bring together a group of eminent academics, critics, and writers for a scholarly discussion on three tendencies that distinctively nourish the May Fourth spirit—obsession with China, dialogue with the world and exiling the Gods—respectively represented by three prominent Chinese intellectuals C. T. HSIA, Leo LEE Ou-fan, and LIU Zaifu. Sponsored by the Tin Ka Ping foundation, the conference will be co-hosted by Prof. David WANG Der-wei from Harvard University and Prof. LIU Jianmei from HKUST.
