成功大學文學院10月16、17日舉辦首屆成功人文講座，邀請6位海內外學者，以「東亞儒學現代化轉型」為主題發表專題演講。同時集結台灣、東亞、歐美、大洋洲等地之學者，共同研討學術界刻不容緩的時代議題。因應疫情影響，講座將透過視訊會議、網路平台直播、線上提問等方式，使各地觀眾皆能零距離與現場進行多元互動。16日上午舉辦開幕式，成大校長蘇慧貞、成大文學院副院長高實玫、成大中文系教授林朝成及多位專家學者與會。

成大校長蘇慧貞表示，在文明的紀錄裡，某些科技、技術常會因為對經濟、社會產生影響而留下足跡，謝謝所有一起籌備成功人文講座的師生，讓我們能從歷史的角度，看見更多的社會價值與能夠繼續努力的地方。期待透過大家的分享與論述，讓我們在歷史與文化的資產裡，看到更多新的可能。

台南即將在2024年迎來熱蘭遮城建城四百年紀念，背後牽動17世紀台灣進入大航海時代後，與東亞各區域乃至西方世界曲折的互動過程。成大文學院以東亞現代性為主要關懷，創立「成功人文講座」，推動相關領域的人文學術研究，促進學術社群的互動交流。成功人文講座的命名源自於17世紀著名人物「鄭成功」，明鄭時期代表著台灣進入現代化的起點，同時也與東亞近代文化發展密不可分。

首次舉辦的成功人文講座，今年邀請東京大學大學院總合文化研究科教授石井剛、政治大學哲學系教授林遠澤、中國社會科學院文學研究所研究員賀照田、東海大學哲學系教授馮耀明、清華大學哲學所教授楊儒賓、中研院歷史語言研究所副研究員藍弘岳等專家學者，演講內容包括：儒學、政治、禮制、文化等議題。

石井剛教授本次演講主題為「中國『情感』哲學的興起以及『禮』的現代詮釋」，從戴震有關理、情和禮的討論開始，重新檢視中國現代啟蒙思想的運動史，並透過「禮的革命」的視角，回顧五四新文化運動，探索「禮」的功能與多元詮釋。

林遠澤教授將探討「西方現代性危機與21世紀新儒學的建構」，試圖於傳統偏私道德、威權政治，以及19世紀末全盤西化的兩個極端中，思考儒學思想中足以完善現代性發展的要素，建構屬於人類未來的21世紀新儒學。

賀照田教授以雷鋒為例，演講「當革命符合儒家傳統—從『對待同志要像春天般溫暖』說起」。透過雷鋒「仁」的經驗，展開關於雷鋒精神與儒家道德精神傳統關係的探索及剖析。

馮耀明教授藉由方法論的角度，考察與分析歷來儒學研究的方法與進路，從中進行反思。此外更點出「語法分析」和「語言概念分析」為儒家哲學思想不可或缺的研究路徑，應以開放的態度取長補短，才能使儒學研究更進一步。

楊儒賓教授以「在水一方：日治台灣反抗運動的中華文化元素」為題，藉由對日治時期台人，如林獻堂、蔣渭水與王敏川等人反抗史的觀察，審視中華文化在台灣的價值與意義，為今日時局提供一盞明燈。

藍弘岳教授探討「『帝國』概念在漢文圏的翻譯與流傳：從幕末日本到清末中國」，針對「帝國」一詞，梳理從洋文脈到漢文脈，從幕末日本到清末中國的脈絡，解釋同樣詞彙背後相關的概念演變、翻譯傳播，以及當中所反映的時代意義。

回顧過往、展望未來，成大文學院在台南這塊土地上，身為受其滋養的重要學術機構，期待透過成功人文講座，為東亞文化在現代化轉型過程中，所面對的重要課題，進行深度的思考，並帶來更多具有創造性的視野和實踐的可能。

The College of Liberal Arts at National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) will hold the inaugural Cheng Kung Humanities Lecture Series on October 16 and 17, inviting six scholars from Taiwan and abroad to deliver keynote lectures on the theme “The Modernization and Transformation of Confucianism in East Asia.” Scholars from Taiwan, East Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania will also come together to discuss pressing issues facing the academic community today. In response to the pandemic, the lectures will incorporate videoconferencing, livestreaming, and online Q&A sessions, enabling audiences around the world to interact with the speakers and the event in real time. The opening ceremony will be held on the morning of October 16, with NCKU President Hui-Chen Su, NCKU College of Liberal Arts Vice Dean Shih-Mei Kao, Professor Chao-Cheng Lin of the Department of Chinese Literature, and numerous experts and scholars in attendance.

NCKU President Hui-Chen Su noted that, in the historical record of civilization, certain technologies and innovations often leave their mark because of their impact on the economy and society. She expressed her appreciation to all the faculty members and students who helped organize the Cheng Kung Humanities Lecture Series, making it possible for us to view social values and areas for continued effort from a historical perspective. She also expressed hope that, through the sharing of ideas and scholarly discussions, we can discover new possibilities within our historical and cultural heritage.

Tainan will commemorate the 400th anniversary of the founding of Fort Zeelandia in 2024. This milestone is connected to the complex interactions between Taiwan, various regions of East Asia, and the Western world following Taiwan’s entry into the Age of Exploration in the seventeenth century. With a primary focus on East Asian modernity, the NCKU College of Liberal Arts established the “Cheng Kung Humanities Lecture Series” to promote humanistic scholarship in related fields and foster interaction and exchange among academic communities. The lecture series takes its name from the renowned seventeenth-century historical figure Koxinga (Zheng Chenggong). The Zheng regime period is regarded as representing the beginning of Taiwan’s transition toward modernization and is also closely connected with the development of modern culture in East Asia.

For the inaugural Cheng Kung Humanities Lecture Series, this year’s invited experts and scholars include Professor Tsuyoshi Ishii of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Tokyo; Professor Yuan-Tse Lin of the Department of Philosophy at National Chengchi University; researcher He Zhaotian of the Institute of Literature at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences; Professor Yiu-ming Fung of the Department of Philosophy at Tunghai University; Professor Ru-Bin Yang of the Institute of Philosophy at National Tsing Hua University; and Associate Research Fellow Hirotaka Lan of the Institute of History and Philology, Academia Sinica. Their lectures address topics including Confucianism, politics, ritual institutions, and culture.

Professor Tsuyoshi Ishii’s lecture, “The Rise of the Philosophy of ‘Emotion’ in China and the Modern Interpretation of ‘Ritual,’” begins with Dai Zhen’s discussions of principle, emotion, and ritual. He revisits the history of the movement for modern enlightenment thought in China and, from the perspective of a “revolution in ritual,” reviews the May Fourth New Culture Movement while exploring the functions and diverse interpretations of ritual.

Professor Yuan-Tse Lin will discuss “The Crisis of Western Modernity and the Construction of Neo-Confucianism in the Twenty-First Century.” He seeks to identify elements within Confucian thought that can contribute to the further development of modernity, navigating between the two extremes of traditional partial and private morality, authoritarian politics, and wholesale Westernization at the end of the nineteenth century, with the goal of constructing a form of twenty-first-century Neo-Confucianism for the future of humanity.

Using Lei Feng as an example, Professor He Zhaotian will deliver a lecture entitled “When Revolution Conforms to the Confucian Tradition: Beginning with ‘Treat Your Comrades with the Warmth of Spring.’” Through an examination of Lei Feng’s experience of “benevolence,” the lecture explores and analyzes the relationship between the spirit of Lei Feng and the traditional moral spirit of Confucianism.

From a methodological perspective, Professor Yiu-ming Fung will examine and analyze the methods and approaches that have historically been used in Confucian studies, reflecting critically upon them in the process. He will also emphasize that grammatical analysis and linguistic-conceptual analysis are indispensable approaches to the study of Confucian philosophy. An open-minded approach that draws on the strengths of different methods, he argues, is necessary for advancing Confucian studies.

Professor Ru-Bin Yang’s lecture, “On the Other Side of the River: Elements of Chinese Culture in Taiwan’s Anti-Colonial Resistance during Japanese Rule,” examines the value and significance of Chinese culture in Taiwan through the history of resistance by Taiwanese figures during Japanese rule, including Lin Hsien-tang, Chiang Wei-shui, and Wang Min-chuan. The lecture seeks to offer insights that may illuminate the circumstances of the present day.

Professor Hirotaka Lan will explore “The Translation and Circulation of the Concept of ‘Empire’ in the Sinosphere: From Late Edo Japan to Late Qing China.” Focusing on the term “Empire,” he traces its development from Western-language contexts into the Sinitic-language context, and from late Edo Japan to late Qing China. He examines the conceptual transformations, translation and dissemination of the term, as well as the historical significance reflected in these developments.

Looking back on the past while looking toward the future, the NCKU College of Liberal Arts, as an important academic institution nourished by the land of Tainan, hopes that the Cheng Kung Humanities Lecture Series will provide an opportunity for in-depth reflection on the important challenges facing East Asian culture in its process of modernization and transformation, while opening up more creative perspectives and possibilities for practice.
