自然部类称名研究析论

Analytical Comments on the Research of Nature Category Naming

新方志诸部类中,称名及内容较不确定的部类有自然部类。为解决自然部类在方志理论研究及编纂实践中的尴尬地位,需要总结两轮新方志纂修中自然部类的实践情况,并对与自然部类相关的地理部类、基础部类、综合部类等称法进行辨析,进而为自然部类正名,同时对志书分类称名有所参考借鉴。

Among the various categories of new local records,the nature category is relatively indefinite in terms of naming and contents.To take the nature category out of its awkward position in local records theoretical research and compilation practice,we need to summarize the nature category compilation practice during two rounds of new local records compilation;to analyze and differentiate terms such as the geography category,basic category,and comprehensive category that are related to the nature category;and continue to provide appropriate definition for the nature category,while providing reference for the correct naming of local records categories.
