Why didn t China have a Renaissance, a Reformation, or an Enlightenment?

As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China presented a situation in which a hundred schools of thought contended and a hundred flowers bloomed. than the so-called Western Renaissance.

It's been many years earlier. Taoism in China.

It has been deeply integrated with Chinese culture. The Spring and Autumn period has emerged, the Enlightenment. The prevalence of Confucianism was an Enlightenment. Emphasize that the monarch is light and the people are the first.

These are all in line with the qualifications. Lord. Righteousness, capital. Grade. level of profit. benefit. And our country's capital. Lord. Righteousness, capital. Grade. The level is not strong to this extent.

But our country is clear. The End People. Some of the early days. Governance of fortune. The main thing is capital. Lord. Righteousness, capital. Grade. level-driven.

Because the European Middle Ages were too ignorant and too hey, there were movements such as the Renaissance to liberate the ideological imprisonment dominated by the church.

Our country does not have that kind of ignorant history.

For example, Wang Mang's new dynasty carried out a renaissance of Confucius's Confucian ideal world, and then it was abolished by Liu Xiu. The Reformation seems to have been absent, but there have been many large-scale purges of religion throughout history, such as the Buddha Slaughter Movement. Have you skipped the efforts of those ancestors of the Enlightenment in recent times?

Without them, we are still braided horse coats and small foot girls, not called the Enlightenment is the Enlightenment, and paying more attention to its inner is true.

There are also many ideological emancipation movements in China, such as the Reform Movement, the Wuxu Reform Movement, and the New Culture Movement, because each country lives in a different era and has different ideas.

The emancipation movement in Europe can be divided into two steps, one is the emancipation of religious theology, and the other is to lead the people to overthrow feudal rule. Both the Renaissance and the Reformation attacked the Church and theology, and the Renaissance attacked religious theology.

In fact, our country has experienced thousands of years of history, and many things are growing silently, but there is no particularly significant process.

Not against religion, but from the dark ignorance of religion in the Middle Ages. As we all know, the scientist Bruno was burned to death by the dark religious forces, and this example is only the tip of the iceberg of religious ignorance in the Middle Ages.

The Renaissance and the Enlightenment were the reflection and struggle against religious ignorance that made significant contributions to modern Western civilization.

All of this is happening in Europe, and it has nothing to do with our China, which is willing to be in Asia, so it has no impact on us, China.

Others are not clear.

At the end of the 19th century, Yan Fu and other thinkers in China translated many foreign books, mainly French Enlightenment ideas. It played a certain positive role in propagating the ideology during the period of the Wuxu Reform.

Indirectly affects China. Not very significant.

Renaissance Background: Economically: The first to emerge in Italy was the beginning of capitalism.

Politically: the bourgeoisie demanded for its own interests, breaking through the shackles of Catholicism. Culturally:

Italy retains a large part of the classical culture of ancient Greece and Rome. In terms of talents: many erudite and talented talents are in essence the emerging bourgeois anti-feudal ideological emancipation movement; They all paid attention to the value of human beings, and made ideological preparations for the bourgeoisie to gain political and economic domination; The so-called human interests they pursue are the interests of the bourgeoisie.
