The Fundamental Research regarding the East Asian Representation in the Russian Illustrated Newspapers during the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century.

这项研究的主要目的是考察出现在19世纪下半叶的插图报纸等俄罗斯媒体上的有关东亚表述的问题。其结果是：1.19世纪俄国知识分子文本中关于东亚的表述，是以黑格尔哲学中的地理和历史观念为前提的。因此，他们不仅把亚洲作为“他者”的认识论维度，但也是对俄罗斯作为半亚洲国家的社会政治状况的自我批评。2.促使插图报纸在俄罗斯获得影响力的主要因素有：(1)西方起源的视觉媒体文化的全球化。(2)新兴中产阶级和女性读者的增加，他们需要视觉流行文化，而不是优质杂志的语言中心文化。(3)伴随着俄罗斯帝国领土的扩张而产生的新的地理知识的扩大。(4)工业革命实现的发明知识的展示的出现。3.在这种背景下，关于东亚，我们注意到以下四种表现：(1)在启蒙运动和社会进化论的影响下形成的表现；(2)基于欧洲公民文化的自然历史利益的表现；(3)作为西方列强入侵受害者的亚洲人的表现；(4)东亚作为原始文明中心之一的表现。
