中国与人类文明发祥地之一的非洲大陆之间的关系从古至今,源远流长。自从以葡萄牙人为先行的西方殖民者破坏了“丝绸之路”和“香料之路”后,中国与非洲之间的关系便进入了一个新时期。但是,以英国学者戴闻达在《中国人对非洲的发现》一书中提出近代中非关系“中断说”为肇始,西方学者无视近代华人开发非洲,创建新的中非关系的史实,一直认为从1441年米昔尔(即埃及)统治者遣使赴明朝进贡物品后,中非关系便出现了一个长达500年的中断期。这结论无疑是武断的、错误的。为此,笔者仅就目前能够搜集到的材料,对近代中非关系及其特点作一简略概述。
The relationship between China and the African continent, one of the cradles of human civilization, has existed since ancient times. Since the Portuguese-led Western colonizers undermined the “Silk Road” and the “Spice Road,” the relationship between China and Africa has entered a new era. However, the British scholar Dai Wen-da pointed out in his book “The Discoveries of Africa by China” that the “discontinuation” of modern China-Africa relations was initiated. Western scholars ignored the historical facts that modern Chinese were developing Africa and creating new Sino-African relations. They always believed From the mission of Meshir (or Egypt) in 1441 to send tribute to the tribute items of the Ming Dynasty, there was a 500-year suspension of Sino-African relations. This conclusion is undoubtedly arbitrary and wrong. To this end, the author only briefly summarizes the modern Sino-African relations and their characteristics on the basis of the materials they can collect so far.
