“科学史学”与现代中国史学专业精神之形塑(1917-1948)

Scientific Historiography and the Shaping of Professional Status of Modern Chinese Historiography(1917- 1948)

自19世纪中叶以来,"科学史学"在世界范围内专业精神和提升了其专业地位。伴随着"科学史学"的不断推进,体现在近代中国,是自1917年后,史学不只在学术建制上脱离了文学门,且还试图在专业意识上与各自然科学同列;再以着重于细密专题论文的"科学规范"开辟了研究的新局面,并向各国派出优秀留学生,逐渐赢得国外学术界的尊敬,使史学在现代学术发展中脱颖而出,成为其时专注于精深研究的一个示范和领军学科,这其中虽有特定历史和文化原因,但不应忽略那一代学人为形塑史学的专业地位而付出的高瞻远瞩、坚忍不拔的努力。

Since the mid 19 th century,the professional status of 'Scientific Historiography'has been effectively shaped in many countries in the world. After 1917,Chinese historiography not only separated itself from literature in academic system,but also brought about a new situation with its 'scientific norms'. There are historical and cultural reasons for the advanced development of historiography,but the insight and persistent efforts of researchers of that period should never be neglected.
