Abstract:
[Objective]To discuss the appearance of overseas dissemination of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)in Zhejiang during the Republic of China era from the perspective of publications,and reveal the contribution of Zhejiang to the overseas dissemination of TCM.[Methods]Using literature research and historical research methods,the article sorts out the publishing characteristics and representative achievements of Zhejiang TCM books and periodicals during the Republic of China era,and analyzes the situation of overseas dissemination of Zhejiang TCM academic publications during the period.[Results]During the Republic of China era,medical experts in Zhejiang sought to enhance the global influence of TCM by compiling TCM textbooks,publishing integrated Chinese and western works,editing large-scale TCM series,and translating representative TCM publications.They further strengthened the dissemination of TCM overseas by promoting the sale of Zhejiang TCM journals abroad,placing advertisements overseas,and preserving TCM texts overseas.[Conclusion]The role of Zhejiang's TCM publications in the dissemination of TCM abroad during the Republic of China era cannot be ignored.It not only promotes the cross-border dissemination of TCM knowledge,but also further enhances the world's recognition of the scientific value of TCM,which is enlightening for building a new era of foreign dissemination discourse system with Zhejiang characteristics.
