摘要
1938年9月至1942年9月胡适担任中国驻美国大使。如何评价胡适担任这一要职的工作成绩,学界历来存有争议。在此期间,美国主流媒体《纽约时报》《华盛顿邮报》围绕胡适发表的抗战言论及其活动亦作了大量报道,从这些报道,人们可以窥察当时美国新闻媒体对胡适工作表现的感受和印象。《华盛顿邮报》较多地追踪胡适在华埠社交圈的各种外交活动和社会交际,《纽约时报》则对胡适持守的抗日立场和各种动态作了正面宣传推介。两报对胡适的工作成就和为人表现给予了高度赞赏,罕见地称其是中国近代以来最好的外交官。
Hu Shih served as the Chinese ambassador to the United States from September 1938 to September 1942,though his performance in this high-ranking position has been a subject of controversy among scholars.During this period,major American newspapers such as The New York Times and The Washington Post extensively reported on Hu’s statements and activities,and through this coverage one can gain insight into how American news outlets regarded Hu’s performance as ambassador.The Washington Post primarily tracked Hu Shih’s various diplomatic activities and social engagements revolving around the local Chinese diaspora,while The New York Times focused more on promoting Hu Shih’s calls for resistance or aid in China’s struggle against Japan.The two newspapers offered high praise for Hu Shih’s ambassadorial work,even going so far as to call him the best Chinese diplomat in modern times.
