吴沃尧(吴趼人)《新石头记》,是吴氏自认“兼理想、科学、社会、政治而有之者”的重要作品。有别于作者其它著作,吴沃尧关于社会、政治的理想,在《新石头记》中得到了具体表述和阐释。以《新石头记》为中心,结合同时期吴氏其余作品,可大致勾勒吴沃尧的“改良革新”思想。这对晚清思想史的再思,当有一定意义。 Wu Woyao (Wu Mi) “New Stone”, is Wu’s self-recognition “and the ideal, science, society, politics and others who have ” important works. Different from other works by the author, Wu Woyao’s social and political ideals have been specifically expressed and explained in The New Stone. Taking “The New Stone” as the center and combining the other works of Wu during the same period, we can generalize Wu Woyao’s thought of “improving innovation”. This is a reflection on the history of thoughts in the late Qing Dynasty when there is some significance.
