“回归”传统的文艺复兴——新文化派和学衡派关于传统文化的论争

“学衡派”与新文化运动者们的争论实际上是西学与西学的一场争论，他们的思想来源都来自于欧洲。关键是“学衡派”的主要成员主张要从西学的角度重新认识传统文化的内在性，以传统文化弥补西方文化的功利性，弘扬中国文化的美学特质，所以他们提出了“论究学术，阐求真理，昌明国粹，融化新知，以中正之眼光，行批评之职事。”他们强调对西方学说进行比较全面系统的研究，然后慎重择取。在一定程度上说，“学衡派”具有更健全的中西文化观。

The renaissance of regressing to tradition --The debate between New Culture school and Xueheng school

The debate between Xueheng school and New Culture school was in fact one within western learning. What is most important is that the main members of Xueheng school insisted on reunderstanding the immanence of traditional culture from the angle of western learning, making up for the utilitarian nature of western culture with traditional culture and promoting the special aesthetic features of Chinese culture. Therefore, they suggested that we should discuss learning, seek for truth, flourish the quaintessence of Chinese culture, compromise new knowledge and make criticisms fairly. They attached great importance to making a thorough and systematic study of western theories and selecting carefully. To some extent,Xueheng school had a better view about Chinese and western cultures.
