| 英文摘要: | The translation of the Outlines of New Learning on the Investigations of Things (Gezhi Xinxue Tigang, 格致新学提纲) by Joseph Edkins and WANG Tao, published in two issues of the Chinese and Foreign Concord Almanac (中西通书) in 1853 and 1858 respectively, was the earliest work in late Qing China on the chronology of Western science. It introduced the progress and discovery of Western science since Nicolaus Copernicus. This article identifies numerous scientists introduced in the Outlines, analyzes its content, and investigates its process of transmission, especially the influence on WANG Tao’s The Origins of Western Learning (Xixue Yuanshi Kao, 西学原始考）and HUANG Zhongjun’s The Continuation of the Biographies of Mathematicians (Chouren Zhuan Sibian, 畴人传四编）. It also points out that the purpose of writing this Outlines was to change Chinese scholars’ old views of Western learning. This helped greatly the transmission of new Western science in late Qing China. |
