“排荀运动”是晚清思想史和政治史上重要的文化现象。梁启超不仅是这场运动的发起者，也是运动的组织者、宣传者和总结者。梁启超虽然倡导“排荀”，但同时也体现出“尊荀”的一面。“尊荀”与“排荀”交织的思想特点，显示出梁启超基于传统观点和现实变革

需求对荀子丰富思想的灵活运用。梁启超的“排荀”最初偏重学术，后转向政治并与反对专制、倡导民权联系起来。流亡日本之后，他在西方启蒙思想基础上深化了对专制制度的认识，开启了对专制思想的直接批判，由此“排荀运动”完成其使命而结束。梁启超借“排荀”以促进社会改革，是对传统思想资源的批判性利用和创新性发展，展现了其思想探索的丰富过程和经由学术变革、政治变法以匡时济世的理想。

The Anti-Xunzi Movement represents a significant cultural phenomenon in the late Qing Dynasty’s intellectual and political history. Liang Qichao was not only the initiator but also the organizer, summarizer, and promoter of this movement. Despite advocating the Anti-Xunzi Movement, Liang Qichao simultaneously revered Xunzi, showcasing a flexible application of Xunzi’s rich thoughts based on traditional viewpoints and the demands of real-world reforms. Liang’s initial opposition to Xunzi was primarily academic but later shifted towards politics, linking it with opposition to autocracy and advocacy for civil rights. After his exile in Japan, he deepened his understanding of autocratic systems based on his study of Western Enlightenment thoughts, thereby launching direct criticisms of authoritarian ideologies, which effectively marked the completion of the Anti-Xunzi Movement’s mission. Liang Qichao’s leveraging of the Anti-Xunzi Movement for social reform represents a critical utilization and innovative development of traditional ideological resources. An examination of Liang Qichao’s participation and leadership in the Anti-Xunzi Movement reveals the process of his intellectual exploration and his ideal of reforming the academic and political realms to save the nation.
