Significance of Sinology: Based on the pre-Qin classics and a hundred schools of thought, it covers a complete cultural and academic system, such as Confucian Classics in Han Dynasty, Metaphysics in Wei and Jin Dynasties, Taoism in Sui and Tang Dynasties, Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties, practical learning in Ming and Qing Dynasties, poems in the same period of pre-Qin Dynasty, parallel prose in Six Dynasties, poems in Tang and Song Dynasties, novels in Yuan Dynasty in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and historiography in past dynasties. In the history of China, "Sinology" refers to the official school headed by "imperial academy". Since "Western learning spread to the east" generally refers to "China's traditional ideological and cultural scholarship".
Definition of sinology: apart from the basic definition, there is no unified and clear definition of the specific definition in academic circles. Generally speaking, Sinology, also known as Sinology or China Studies, refers to the traditional culture and scholarship of China. Chinese studies include China's ancient philosophy, history, religion, literature, customs, textual research, ethics, traditional Chinese medicine, agriculture, martial arts, geography, politics, economy, painting and calligraphy, music, architecture and many other aspects. The concept of "Sinology" came into being in the 1920s, when the trend of "Western learning spread to the East" was in full swing. Zhang Zhidong, Wei Yuan and others put forward the concept of "middle school" (Chinese studies) in order to oppose western learning, and advocated that "middle school should be the body and western learning should be used". On the one hand, they studied western civilization, and at the same time, they resumed the study of Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty.
