人类学与志书编纂的互动——方志学跨学科研究的一个例证

The Interaction of Anthropology and Local Records Compilation-An Interdisciplinary Research Example in Local Records Studies

人类学进入中国以来,不断借鉴和利用志书,与志书编纂形成密切关系。中外不少人类学学者通过借鉴和利用志书开展研究,并取得重要成果。在理念、资料、体例、方法等多个方面,志书编纂对人类学产生了较大影响。同时,方志界也一直在向人类学吸取养分。然而,方志界总体上对人类学的理论和方法还比较陌生,人类学尚未进入多数方志同仁的视野。本文拟对人类学与志书编纂的互动关系作一个系统论述,逐步加深方志学的跨学科研究程度。

Since the entrance of anthropology into China,it constantly makes use of and draws references from local records,and has formed close relationship with local records compilation.Many anthropologists,both home and abroad,conduct research by making use of and draws references from local records,and have made important achievements.In many aspects,such as concepts,references,styles,and methods,local records compilation has exerted fairly great influences on anthropology.Meanwhile,the local records circle has always been absorbing nutrients from anthropology.However,the local records circle as a whole still feels strange about anthropology theories and methods,and anthropology has not yet entered the vision of most local records fellow workers.This article intends to make systematic discussion on the interactive relationship between anthropology and local records compilation,and to deepen the interdisciplinary research in local records studies gradually.
