About the Author

A native of Haining, Zhejiang, he went to Shanghai to work as a proofreader for a newspaper, after failing to pass the Imperial Examination in his hometown, at the age of 22. There he studied in the Dongwen Xueshe, a Japanese language teaching school, and became a protégé of Luo Zhenyu. Sponsored by Luo, he left for Japan in 1901, studying natural sciences in Tokyo. Back in China one year later, he began to teach in different colleges, and devoted himself to the study of German idealism. He fled to Japan with Luo when the Xinhai Revolution took place in 1911. He returned to China in 1916, but remained loyal to the overthrown Manchu emperor. In 1924, he was appointed professor by the Tsinghua University, where he was known as one of the "Four Great Tutors," along with the prominent Chinese scholars Liang Qichao, Chen Yinke, and Y. R. Chao.In 1927, Wang drowned himself in Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace before the National Revolutionary Army entered Beijing during the Northern Expedition.Chen Yinque's epitaph read: "The suicide of Wang was because he worried about losing the independent spirit and free thought he long cherished in his academic pursuit."
王国维，1877年12月3日出生。世代清寒，幼年为中秀才苦读。早年屡应乡试不中，遂于戊戌风气变化之际弃绝科举。二十二岁起，他至上海《时务报》馆充书记校对。利用公余，他到罗振玉办的"东文学社"研习外交与西方近代科学，结识主持人罗振玉，并在罗振玉资助下于1901年赴日本留学。1902年王国维因病从日本归国。后又在罗振玉推荐下执教于南通、江苏师范学校，讲授哲学、心理学、伦理学等，复埋头文学研究，开始其"独学"阶段。1906年随罗振玉入京，任清政府学部总务司行走、图书馆编译、名词馆协韵等。其间，著有《人间词话》等。1911年辛亥革命后，王国维携生平著述3种。眷随儿女亲家罗振玉逃居日本京都，从此以前清遗民处世。1922年受聘北京大学国学门通讯导师。1927年6月，王国维留下"经此世变，义无再辱"的遗书，投颐和园昆明湖自尽。在其50岁人生学术鼎盛之际为国学史留下了最具悲剧色彩的"谜案"。
