唐獎第一屆得獎者專訪-漢學 The First Tang Prize Laureates - Sinology

About

Founded in 2012 in Taiwan by Samuel Yin, the Tang Prize is awarded biennially to outstanding contributors—irrespective of ethnicity or nationality— in four fields: Sustainable Development, Biopharmaceutical Science, Sinology, and Rule of Law. The prize is rooted in the long-standing cultural traditions of Chinese thought and in an outlook of convergence and mutual enrichment with other traditions. It aims to provide fresh impetus to the promotion of first-class research and development in the 21st century, to bring about positive change to the global community, and to create a brighter future for all humanity. 唐獎面對當前社會發展，以中華文化數千年的涵養，從新視野與新思維注入實際的行動與思考。有感於全球化的進步與發展，在人類享受文明的豐厚果實與科技所帶來的便利之時，人類亦面臨氣候變遷、貧富差距、社會道德式微等等之考驗。為鼓勵世人重新省思永續發展的中庸之道，尹衍樑博士於2012年12月成立唐獎，設置永續發展、生技醫藥、漢學及法治四大獎項，而且不分種族與國籍，遴選出對世界具有創新實質貢獻及影響力的成就者。 唐獎發軔於東方思想的沃土，以其文化價值、精神與世界相互調和，並淬聚人類智慧與全球知識，期待成為二十一世紀永續發展的重要推手，以便為世界之美好貢獻力量，展現新時代的價值與意義。
