The Path from Here: Qing Dynasty Scholars and Hong Kong
During the Qing Dynasty, scholars were the esteemed elite who passed imperial examinations. While Hong Kong had no local scholars, it had connections with Qing scholars. After the establishment of the Republic of China, Qing remnants, including top scholars and prime ministers, moved to Hong Kong. They brought orthodox Confucianism and traditional cultural education, shaping Hong Kong's cultural history. This book explores the history of scholars in Hong Kong, their influence, and the establishment of Confucianism. It contains unpublished characters and historical materials.
