摘要

摘要:本文关注的是意识形态影响、认识论和东方主义之间的交集。1913年，一位名叫威廉·弗朗西斯·曼尼克斯(William Francis Mannix)的美国人声称，他根据中国著名政治家李鸿章的日记编辑了一本回忆录。《李鸿章回忆录》在美国和英国大获成功，汉学家称赞其贡献。当这本回忆录被曝光为赝品时，一些读者很难用作品的逼真度来解释它的成功。通过仔细研究Mannix的书，本文考虑了真理的概念，知识的构建和传播，以及塑造我们理解的文化和意识形态预设的作用。

Cui Malo? Cui Bono? Reflections on a Literary Forgery: The Case of The Memoirs of Li Hung Chang

Abstract:This paper is concerned with the intersection between ideological influence, epistemology, and Orientalism. In 1913, an American named William Francis Mannix claimed to have edited a memoir based on the diary of the famous Chinese statesman, Li Hongzhang. The Memoirs of Li Hung Chang was a success in America and Britain, with expert sinologists praising its contributions. When the memoir was exposed as a forgery, some readers struggled to explain its success by the perceived verisimilitude of the work. By taking a closer look at Mannix's book, this paper considers the concept of truth, knowledge construction and dissemination, as well as the role of cultural and ideological presuppositions that shape our understandings.
