蒋廷黻著《中国近代史》学术影响源探析——以所受“新史学”及马士的影响为中心

Exploration and Analysis of Chinese Modern History by Jiang Tingfu Influenced by "New Historiography" and H.B. Morse

蒋廷黻的中国近代史研究虽然受美国“新史学”诸大师的影响不小 ,但更重要的是受到了美国汉学家马士的影响。此种影响 ,主要表现在对近代史的分析框架和某些重要论断上 ,但不是简单地承袭 ,而是结合中国历史文化的实际进行了相应的改进 ,并在档案文献的使用等方面补正了马士的缺陷 ,为此后中国近代史的研究奠定了基础。

Though Chinese Modern History by Jiang Tingfu was influenced by American 'new historiography', but American sinologist H.B. Morse gave the author more influences whose representations are mainly in the analysis frame and some important judgments. Jiang was not a simple successor but made some improvements according to the actual situation of China. And in the meantime he also made up some deficiencies in the Morse's usage of archives and literature and thus laid a foundation for the research of Chinese modern history.
