What is the difference between an enlightened and a reformist

Enlightened SchoolEnlightened School: A unique team of prose writers in the 30s, most of them are colleagues of Shanghai Lida Academy, and in the 30s, they gathered around the Enlightened Bookstore, including Feng Zikai, Xia Yazun, and Mr. Ye Shengtao. "Be open-minded"Fan essayists are positive life school, ardent patriots, and pay attention to character, integrity, and integrity.

Their works are as plain as water and as clear as words, but they are good at discovering the philosophy of life in the ordinary, pursuing lofty situations, rigorous and charming. The spirit of the enlightened literati is closely related to the blood of Jiangnan culture flowing through them. The Jiangnan literati lifestyle, which focused on personal spiritual tastes and pursued the artistic texture of life, profoundly intervened in and prescribed the social existence of the enlightened literati.

By taking a retreat from realpolitik in exchange for space for their spiritual and artistic existence, this neutral cultural attitude ensures the richness and integrity of their spiritual world. Specifically, they take Confucian culture as the foundation of their lives, and embody the pursuit of gentleman's personality and the morality of social commitment through the practice of loving and hating, doing and not doing; They also take Jiangnan culture as the pursuit of temperament and moral ideals to enrich the connotation of life, to reflect the free nature of human beings and the value of life. This setting of life coordinates enables the enlightened school to obtain a wonderful balance and coordination between the individual and society, interest and mission, birth and accession, and solitude and love.

The former is active and promising, guiding the enlightened literati to pursue the essence of human freedom and the value of life without falling into nothingness or self-indulgence; The richness and integrity of the latter ensured that the pursuit of social ideals by the enlightened literati did not lead to extreme narrowness and alienation of human nature. In this way, the enlightened school also brought itself into a higher realm of life - the graceful and neutral realm of the Jiangnan literati cultural ideal.

The dominant ideology of Reformed Judaism is a view of development with a clear rationalist element, that is, Judaism, like all ideologies, must change with the times, and that those outdated and irrational elements should be discarded in the process of development in order to meet the needs of modern life.

There should be a difference, the enlightened are just not resistant to foreign things, unlike the diehards who do not accept life and death, and do not want to change. Reformers are carrying out top-down changes in politics and economy, and there is a difference in evaluation, because after all, the two are also different.

There is a difference, the reformists are more radical.

Hello Lou Lou. I don't know which reformers you are talking about, or if they are reformers in general. In the history of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, there are many political forces that can be called "reformers".

However, generally speaking, the most famous "reformers" are the Westernists and reformists in the late Qing Dynasty in China, the latter also known as the "reformists".

The Westernists were mainly represented by the enlightened gentry in the feudal ruling class at that time, represented by Li Hongzhang, Zhang Zhidong and others, who advocated "Chinese style and Western use", learned advanced foreign technology, and sought self-improvement and prosperity of the country. Its essence is to maintain feudal rule.

The reformists were the more advanced bourgeoisie such as Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, who advocated learning from foreign constitutional monarchies. It can be said that it is a relatively new kind of political force and thought.

But overall, this is not a new school.

Hope it works for you.
