论白寿彝先生对《汉书》的研究

On Bai Shouyi's Study of History of the Former Han

白寿彝研究《汉书》,不局限于一点,而是将班固和其所处时代的史学家作为一个学术共同体进行考察。对班固的《汉书》与司马迁的《史记》作了一定的比较研究,指出了其继承与发展,也指出了其相同与不同以及思想风格的各自特点。白寿彝的史学史研究是新中国成立后前17年对史学史研究的一个缩影,代表了当时的研究水平,是当时思想的折射。从思想史与学术史的角度看,在今天依然具有一定意义。

Bai Shouyi's study of Ban Gu's The History of the Former Han is not limited to a point,but takes Ban Gu and the historians of his era as an academic community for study. Mr. Bai has made a comparative study of Ban Gu's History of the Former Han and Sima Qian's Historical Records and pointed out the inheritance and development by Ban Gu,as well as their similarities,differences and their respective characteristics in thinking and style. Bai Shouyi's study of historiography is a microcosm of the study of historiography in the first 17 years after the founding of new China,represents the highest level of the time,and is the reflection of the thought then. From the perspective of thought history and academic history,Bai's study is still of some significance.
