儒家学者对于西方自然科学的反应与西学究竟在何等层面上影响了中国的学术研究?本文在研究过程中发现,西学对中国传统学术的影响,只限在天文、历法、地理学、数学等方面以及再次唤起中国人对传统中类似学科(如数学)的兴趣。“西学中源论”却阻止了中国学者更进一步地接受西方科学。 Confucian scholars’ response to Western natural sciences and the extent to which Western learning influenced Chinese academic research? In the course of the study, we find that the influence of Western learning on Chinese traditional scholarship is restricted to astronomy, calendars, geography and mathematics And once again arouse Chinese interest in similar traditions such as mathematics. “Western source theory” has prevented Chinese scholars from further accepting Western science.
