Abstract
During the Sino-Japanese War, in the face of the multiple threats brought about by Japan’s full-scale invasion of China, Chinese universities launched educational struggle. Wuxi Sinology Specialized School (WuXiGuoZhuan), as an important position of sinology education, always adheres to the tenet of “correcting people’s hearts and saving people’s lives” and stands the educational ground in the war. It actively cultivated anti-Japanese and national salvation talents through the dissemination of Chinese classics, strengthening of physical education and military training and other measures. Teachers and students were courageous in the moment of national crisis, carrying out anti-Japanese salvation activities, while constantly implementing civilian education, showing the responsibility of Chinese universities in times of national crisis and cultural self-awareness, which provides valuable educational experience and historical revelations for future generations.
