甲午战争时期主战舆论三题  

  

Abstract: This paper discusses the nature of the pro-war public opinion in China during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-95,addressing mainly the following three issues.First,it explains the basic approach and attitudes of this public opinion by analyzing the back ground of the war,contrasting the actual strength between China and Japan,and discussing the strategy and tactics of so-called “lasting resistance”.Secondly, the paper discusses the weaknesses of this public opinion,including megalomania,pursing their struggle only on paper,and propagandizing conservative ideas.Finally,it discusses the relationship between this public opinion and the rise of reform thinking in 1898,demonstrating that the former laid the ideological foundation for the latter。
