关于中国古代学术史写法的思考

On the Writing of Chinese Ancient Academic History

考察中国古代学术实际状况以及部分学者编写的学术史可知:古代学术,包括社会科学和自然科学里所有经过职业学者精密加工制作的系统精神文化产品,主线是社会科学里的儒、道思想和史学。用改进了的编年体,即用有"总论"、"分论"、"附录图表"和"索引"的编年体写学术史,能较好反映古代学术的实际发展变化。编写学术史,在突出各段学术主体特点的同时,要更多关注非名家学者,对他们可以群体为单位进行研究。学术史要注意当代性,要有当代的价值判断、当代的审美趣味,以及对当代学术创作的关注。另外,还必须注意学术发展的主线、材料的真实性、理论概括和现实指导性等方面。

According to the actual state of Chinese ancient academic history and the studies of some scholars,it can be found that Chinese ancient academics includes the carefully-made systematic spiritual cultural products in both social science and natural science which are combined by Confucianism,Taoism and historiography.Making use of annalistic style which is made up of general introduction,substantial contents,appendix chart and index to write academic history can better reflect the real development and change of ancient academics.In writing academic history,both the characters of different academic subjects and infamous scholars should be studied.Moreover,the contemporaneity,the mainline,the authenticity of materials,the generalization of theory and the practical instruction should all be paid attention.
