陈寅恪

陈寅恪 enters the wiki through 19.荒野上的大师：“我辈于乱世求研究，本为逆流之妄举” as a scholar normally presented as politically detached but willing to act when the scholarly desk itself was threatened. The episode discusses his role after [[LiangQichao|梁启超]]’s death and [[WangGuowei|王国维]]’s death, especially the effort to defend the [[TsinghuaGuoxueInstitute|清华国学研究院]] against internal power struggles and accusations.

The source uses Chen’s memorial language for Wang to connect scholarship with “思想之自由”. In this ingest, Chen extends Academic Freedom beyond contemporary campus speech into the institutional defense of research, teaching, and the right to maintain a serious intellectual environment.

Key Claims
