中国史学史学科的发展路径与研究趋向

The Way of Development and the Trend of Study on History of Chinese Historiography

从要籍解题式的中国史学史研究到历史、时代视野下的中国史学史研究,中国史学史学科建设经历了颇为艰辛的发展过程。20世纪20年代才初步确立的中国史学史学科,承载的是中国史学自身两千余年历史的厚重内容,要籍解题式的研究特征在中国史学史研究的最初阶段有其必然性。60年代以后,中国史学史研究更注重从时代的特点把握史学发展走向,从历史发展过程中审视中国史学自身的发展过程。在这样的研究路径中,中国史学史研究得以极大地拓展和深入,相应地,对中国古代史学理论的发掘、对近现代中国史学的重视以及多部中国史学通史的完成出版等,使中国史学史研究从多方面呈现出了向纵深发展的态势。在此基础上,从学术史的角度拓展中国史学史研究、加强中国马克思主义史学的研究、重视中外史学比较研究,加强史学理论诸层面的研究,应该是中国史学史研究的几个努力方向。其中,对史学理论的研究是否充分,已经成为影响今后史学史研究能否深入的关键问题。

Study on history of Chinese historiography developed from its first phase during which the discipline＇s content was just like brief introduction and commentary of works to the last phase in which the study has been set in the view of history and times. Nowadays the discipline of history of Chinese historiography has been built into a large scale and got more productions on research. From the trend of study on history of Chinese historiography we can foresee that scholars should exert themselves to make a deep study of history of Chinese historiography, attach importance to comparative study of China and foreign countries＇ historiography, increase studies of theory in the field of history of Chinese historiography.
