胡适敦煌学研究的思维理路——纪念胡适诞辰120周年

Hu Shi’s Research Methods for Dunhuang Studies: in Memory of the 120th Anniversary of Hu Shi

胡适的敦煌学研究发轫于他对传世禅宗史料的怀疑态度,而且在对敦煌史料进行解读的过程中,以史家的科学立场、对敦煌原料的价值极为重视、充分发掘,以自身革命者的体悟"还原"了菏泽宗大师神会的宗教革命者角色。正是基于这一独特的思维理路,胡适的敦煌学研究呈现出独特的风格。文章还讨论了胡适对敦煌白话文学的研究。

Hu Shi＇s initiation of the research on Dunhuang Studies grew from his skepticism of historical materials of Zen. As a historian, he attached great importance to the first-hand Dunhuang documents. With a revolutionary spirit, he ＂restored＂ the revolutionary role ofShen Hui, Master of the Heze Sect. It was through this unique approach to research that Hu Shi exhibited a unique style in his Dunhuang Studies. This paper discusses Hu Shi＇ s researches on Dunhuang colloquial literature.
