晚清民初之際，為因應時代思潮及政治、社會、文化改革等需求，荀學當中的重要概念及相關知識，常透過期刊藉以宣揚傳播，引發迴響及討論。相較於有系統的、脈絡化處理的《中國哲學史》或《荀學研究》……等專門著述，散逸在期刊裡頭諸多荀學概念的闡揚，乃至因應時代的「借題發揮」，何嘗不是近現代荀學史中的一環？且這些期刊荀學言說數量龐大，含括知識菁英及一般普羅大眾的話語。
本文對於這些期刊裡的荀學文獻處理，並不在於討論這些言說是否相應或悖離先秦荀子之說而作價值評判。相對的，是聚焦於從知識傳播、閱讀接受以及詮釋者的角度，來考察清末民初學人及相關文化界人士，他們是如何結合時代思潮之變化，藉由晚清以降興起的期刊等公共媒體，來詮釋並發揮荀學相關概念。其眾聲喧嘩之狀在晚清民國學術史上，又有哪些特徵及思想意義值得關注。

In the late Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, in response to the needs of the times and political, social, and cultural reforms, important concepts and related knowledge in Xunxue were often promoted through newspapers and periodicals, which triggered repercussions and discussions.Compared with the systematic and contextualized “History of Chinese Philosophy” or “Xunxue Studies”...and other specialized works, the elaboration and promotion of many Xunxue concepts scattered in the newspapers and magazines, and even the “experienced use of topics” in response to the times, is it not near A link in the history of modern Xunzi? And these newspapers and periodicals have a huge number of Xun’s doctrines, including the discourses of intellectual elites and the general public. The discussion of these newspapers and periodicals in Xunzi’s documents is not whether these statements corresponding to or deviate from the pre-Qin Xunzi’s doctrines for value judgment, but to focus on the perspectives of knowledge dissemination, reading acceptance, and interpreters to investigate the early Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. How people related cultural figures integrated the changes of the times and used the newspapers and public media that emerged in the late Qing Dynasty to interpret and develop Xunxue related concepts.What are its characteristics and ideological significance in the academic history of the Republic of China in the late Qing Dynasty.
