This volume illustrates Cai Yuanpei’s educational thoughts, one of which is known as “freedom of thought and academic inclusiveness”(思想自由，兼容並包), through his own words from his political, social, and academic endeavors. Cai navigated the landscape of Chinese education at the time, bridging the gap between tradition and revolution, East and West, and setting the cornerstone of the Chinese modern education system. His innovative ideology remains significant in the context of Chinese education reforms in the 21st century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface    1 My View on New Education   February 8, 1912    2 Textbook on Moral Education in the Middle School   May 1912    3 Statement of Political Views to the Senate   May 13, 1912    4 Opening Remarks at the Inaugural Interim National Educational Conference   July 10, 1912    5 The University Bill   Promulgated by Order No. 17 of the Ministry of Education on   October 24, 1912    6 A View of the World and a View of Life   Winter 1912    7 Forewords to the Journal of Learning Spirit   Summer 1914    8 The Mission of the World Society   1915    9 A Preface to the Journal of Work and Study   October 30, 1915    10 Lecture Notes for the School for Overseas Chinese Laborers   Summer in 1916    11 On the Absorption of Civilizations   August 15, 1916    12 The Inaugural Address of President of the Peking University   January 9, 1917    13 A Speech at the Patriotic Girls’ School   January 15, 1917    14 The Declaration of China Vocational Education Society   January 1917    15 A Speech to Senior-Grade Students of Tsinghua College   March 29, 1917    16 Replacing Religion with Aesthetic Education—Speech at Beijing Shenzhou Academic Meeting   April 8, 1917    17 Public Statement on the Establishment of the Sino-France Education Association   April 1917    18 Remarks at the Meeting at NanKai Middle School: Held by the Association of Professionalism, the Association of Diligent Study, and the Association of Youth   May 23, 1917    19 Facts and Reasons for University Restructuring   April 1918    20 The Fundamental Differences between New Education and Old Education–Remarks at the Welcome Ceremony of the Primary Schools’ Meeting of Hebei Province Organized by Zhonghua Book Company (Tianjin)   May 30, 1918    21 Preface to an Outline of the History of Chinese Philosophy   August 3, 1918    22 Forward to the Peking University MONTHLY JOURNAL   November 10, 1918    23 Philosophy and Science   January 1919    24 A Preface to the Journal The Chinese Citizen   January 1919    25 An Application for Establishing the National Language Research Association   January 1919    26 On Developing Complementarity in Education   February 1919    27 Why Initiate the China New Education Co-Progess Association   February 1919    28 A Letter to Gong Yan DAILY and a Response to Lin Qinnan’s Letter   March 18, 1919    29 Mind Cultivation and Science—A Speech Presented at the Mind Cultivation Society of the Beijing Normal COLLEGE Achievement Club   April 24, 1919    30 Statement of No Intention to Be President of Peking University Again   June 15, 1919    31 A Speech at the Dinner Party for the 60th Birthday of John Dewey   October 20, 1919    32 Don’t Forget Aesthetics in Cultural Movement   December 1, 1919    33 Obligations and Rights—a Speech at Peking Women’s Normal School   December 7, 1919    34 Remarks at the Opening of the Public Evening School by Peking University Student Union   January 18, 1920    35 Introduction to the Overseas Returned Scholars Association Magazine   March 10, 1920    36 The Flood and the Beast   April 1, 1920    37 A Speech at the Inaugural Ceremony of the Journal of Education and Society, Beijing Normal College   April 15, 1920    38 A Retrospect of the May Fourth Movement and Expectations for the Future   May 1920    39 Opening Remarks at the Ceremony Awarding Honorary Degrees to His Excellency, Professor Paul Painlevé and Others, at Peking University   August 31, 1920    40 On the University Flag of PEKING University   October, 1920    41 What Is Culture?
