人文学科研究方法旨趣的偏离与回归

Deviation and Return of Humanities Research Methodology

人文学科与自然学科的发展相互砥砺。尽管人文学科以人类价值和精神表现为研究对象,但自然科学研究方法对人文学科研究产生了重要影响。随着科学知识社会学对科学的偶然性、情境性的揭示,人文学科研究要超越自然科学的研究模式,以提升人性为导向,帮助人去感悟和体验生活的价值和意义。为此,其研究方法要进一步彰显价值属性,以问题解决为旨趣,超越学科逻辑和框架的钳制,在反思和行动中将重心转到内部世界,转到对人的情感、意志及心理活动的关注上来。

The development of humanities and that of science interwine and encourage each other . Humanities focuses on human value and human spirit , but the research methods of science have great influence on humanities research . As sociology of scientific knowledge discloses the contingency and situationality of science , humanities research should transcend the science research mode . And it should be humanity‐oriented and help people to feel and experience value and meaning in life . Therefore , the research methodology of humanities should manifest value features , with problem solution as its principle , breaking the limitation of discipline logic and framework , with reflection and action , shifting the focus to inner world ,human emotions ,willpower and psychological activities .
