民族科技文化与史学的创新精神

National Culture of Science and Fechnology and Innovation of Historical Studies

中国古代史学史发展的事实,表明史学发展与创新,与自然科学联系在一起。从总体上说,中国古代史家史官的职能和教育的特点,形成的知识结构,是把“天”与“人”之学结合起来,这在当时世界上是突出的。近代史学发展史,同样表明史学的变化与自然科学的变化、发展,有着紧密的关系。在收集材料、治史方法论、治史风格特征等方面,特别在思维方式上,都能看出自然科学的变化对史学产生影响。当代科技的高度发展,对于新世纪的史学创新,具有的重大意义,更引起我们的关注。

The history of historiography of ancient China showed that the developments and changes of historiography relate closely to natural science. The responsibility of of ancient historical officials and historians of ancient China formated the knowledge with educational characteristics. It is to learn the Humanities knowledge and natural science knowledge （＂heaven＂and＂human＂） together. In the same way historians of the modern age develop the historical studies, which indicates the close link between the changes of historiography and those of natural science. The influence of natural science on historical studies is well reflected in collecting historical materials, the methodology of studing history, etc. and especially in the thinking mode of history. We must pay more attetion to natural and science and technology to innovating historiography in the new century.
