论方志学的基本范畴

On the Basic Category of Local Chronicles Study

概念是事物本质属性的集中反映,而范畴则反映了事物内部对立统一的特殊矛盾,从而确立了事物的独立性与内在发展动力。在方志学产生和发展过程中,这一学科的基本范畴作为其存在核心与发展根源,也必然得以确立并不断演化,但却鲜少被发现和表述。本文试在重新梳理和认定方志概念与方志学概念的基础上,对方志学的基本范畴进行归纳与演绎,以期有助于进一步明确方志学的独立性与发展性,夯实方志学的基础理论,从而推动新方志理论体系建立及方志学学科建设。

Concept is a concentrated reflection of the essential attribute of things,while category identifies the internal special contradiction of the unity of opposites of things,thus defines the independence and internal development drive of things.With the emergence and development of local chronicles study,its basic category,which is the core and source of this discipline,has undoubtedly been established and evolved along the way,but has rarely come under the spotlight and been expressed.On the basis of re-summarizing and determining the concepts of local chronicles and local chronicles study,this paper attempts to induct and deduct the basic category of local chronicles study,so as to further clarify its independence and development,and consolidate its basic theory,thus contributing to the establishment of the new theoretical system of local chronicles study as well as the construction of it as a discipline.
