浅析历史研究中主观性存在的意义

Significance of Subjectivity in Historical Study

历史事件作为一种已经发生的客观事实是不以人的主观意志为转移的。但是作为历史研究者,在还原历史的过程中如何保持主客观的平衡性也是一个十分重要的问题。如果仅是单纯罗列历史事件则没有研究意义也没有尽到研究者的责任。因受个人好恶和集团影响,每个人对于事物的理解会不自觉地打上个人烙印,这是难以避免的。并且,在适当范围内的主观性表述并不代表歪曲事实,所以不应一味抹杀。

Historical events,known as objective facts are not transferred by man’s subjective will. But as a historical researcher,it’s also a very important task to keep the balance between subjectivity and objectivity during the process of restoring history. Simply making lists of historical events neither shows the significance of the study nor the responsibility of the researchers. Influenced by personal taste and clique,each will leave personal mark on the understanding of thing which is hard to avoid. Besides,subjective statements in an appropriate scope doesn’t equals to distortion,so it should not be obliterated blindly.
