邓中夏留在现代中国历史上的,主要是作为职业革命家而非专门学者的角色,但他的学术研究,对于指导和总结中国工人运动,却算得上居功至伟。“五四”时期,邓中夏对“实行”一面的选择,及其求为“有学问的实行家”的自我塑造,确然体现了历史转折时期的知识界求新、求变乃至自我改造的时代风气。进而言之,“五四”之后邓中夏等激进人物对于“实行”一极的凸显与实践,实是转型期的中国知识分子对于自我与时代关系的一种自觉选择。 Deng Zhongxia remained in modern Chinese history mainly as a professional revolutionary rather than as a specialist. However, his academic studies were extremely successful in guiding and summarizing the Chinese workers’ movement. In the period of the May 4th Movement, Deng Zhongxia’s self-shaping of “practicing ” side and his pursuit of self-shaping as “learned practitioner ” really reflect the intellectual revolution in the historical turning point Change and even self-transformation of the times. Furthermore, the prominent and practicing of Deng Zixia and other activists on the pole of “implementation ” after the May Fourth Movement is actually a conscious choice of the Chinese intellectuals in the transitional period for the relationship between self and the times.
