渐行渐远渐无书——国外档案学译著在中国

Books on the Way out——Translation of Foreign Archival Works in China

本文以国外档案学译著为考察对象,通过对译著的时空特征、被引情况、自身特点等进行的分析来管窥国外档案学对中国档案学研究的影响。从时间阶段来看,这些译著未能反映出第一次中外档案学交流高潮;从空间分布来看,这些译著以欧美国家的著作为主;从被引情况来看,大多数国外档案学译著的利用率较低,当代学术价值并不高;另外这些译著的出版、主题及翻译等自身特点也在一定程度上限制了其利用。文章最后对译著在中国档案学科建设及国外档案学理论引入过程中的作用进行了评析,并对今后档案学译著的出版提出了建议。
