Advancement,Struggle and Persistence:The Practice,Establishment and Experience of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners during the Republican Era—Based on Memoirs of Veteran TCM Practitioners
Memoirs reflect an individual's growth experience and work life,and also reveal the emotions of the memoirist,making them valuable historical materials.Today,many veteran Chinese medicine practitioners who grew up during the Republican Era have passed away,but their memoirs depict the diverse historical practices,establishment,and experiences of traditional Chinese medicine during that period,showcasing the challenging professional status and complex mindset of Chinese medicine practitioners in a specific era.This,in turn,reflects the rich and diverse historical aspects of the transition from traditional to modern Chinese medicine practice during the Republican Era.The unique value of the memoirs of veteran Chinese medicine practitioners lies not only in enriching scholarly understanding of the history of modern Chinese healthcare but also in helping us to further understand the inner world of these practitioners,capturing their personal journeys amidst the changing times and constructing the life stories of veteran Chinese medicine practitioners.
