Sinology Studies in Paris University

When Jesuit missionaries came to China in the16th century, the western world had been exposed to Confucian classics. However, the study of Sinology in the true contemporary academic sense has sprouted in Western Europe. Those who study Sinology scientifically should first recommend Abel Remasa of Paris University. Therefore, in the first half of the 20th century, Paris was known as "the undisputed capital of Western Sinology".

18 14, Abel Remasa opened a course in China Linguistics at the University of Paris. Since then, China's linguistics has entered the sacred palace of European universities and been listed as a special study course. It can be seen that the communication and contact between Paris University and China has a long history. Fu Sinian, a famous scholar, once pointed out: "When it comes to the situation that China studies outside China, of course, the Paris School should be an orthodox school." "In the past 80 years, with the contributions of the three greatest figures, the Paris China School has been established." These three characters are Julian, Shajiao and Pelliott. Ai Pu Tian, the host of the lecture on Chinese and Western Comparative Literature in Paris University, is a writer and sociology professor who knows Chinese and Western cultures well. He is a French master engaged in cultural exchanges and comparative studies between China and the West, and has a profound understanding of China culture. He and malraux initiated the establishment of "Friends of China Association", and in the 1970s presided over the compilation of a series of books entitled "Understanding the East", which mainly translated and introduced the literary works of Asian countries.
