摘要
"欧洲"是个历史概念,在15世纪之后才普遍出现在欧洲人的讨论之中。"欧洲"和与"欧洲"相连的一些观念同欧洲大陆上的历史进程密不可分。欧洲目前的地理范围所展示的不仅是疆土,还暗示了欧洲人对自身的认同。理解"欧洲"观念的历史内涵,对于理解目前的欧盟东扩以及关于欧盟边疆的讨论,是必不可少的。本文从欧洲的地理范围、欧洲历史上存在的政治社会组织以及欧洲观念的文化内核三个方面,梳理"欧洲"观念发展的历史,并力图厘清"欧洲"观念的基本内容。
'Europe' is an historical concept that first been discussed widely in the 15th century. 'Europe' and concepts concerning it are closely connected with the historical development in the continent, as the conceptual evolution of 'Europe' is an integral part of European history. It indicates not only a territory in geographic sense, but also the identity of Europeans. In order to understand better the current discussion on the border and eastern enlargement of the EU, it is necessary to understand the evolution of the idea of 'Europe'. In this paper, Europe is observed from three aspects: the territorial changes, the transformation of social and political institutions, and the cultural core of 'Europe'.
