饶宗颐对史学正统论研究的学术贡献——《中国史学上之正统论》发微

Rao Zongyi’s Contribution to the Orthodox Idea in Chinese Historiography

本文对饶宗颐有关史学正统论研究的意义、方法、依据、学术创新以及个人在正统观上的理念作了全面的探讨 ,对饶氏提出五德终始说“实当起于子思”而非邹衍等全新见解作了揭示 ,并钩稽了掩藏于考证形式之下饶氏对于正统观的态度和理念 ,发现他赞同方孝孺一派“重正不重统” ,以道德、正义为标准的正统观念 ,其目的在于籍此构建一种永恒的道德———正义的历史评判机制。另一方面 ,本文也指出饶氏在对待正统观的态度上过于强调华夷之辨 ,有时也不免模糊了其自身确定的价值取向。
