20世纪初越南汉文改良新史学析论

Discussion on Reformism Character History Books in Vietnam in the Early 20th Century

越南古代史学以汉字为正宗,在经过阮朝的极盛时期之后,在19世纪末20世纪初国家危亡之际,在西方思想和日本、中国传来的新思想的影响下,任职于阮朝朝廷和法属殖民政府的人士面向大众重新撰写了具有改良新思想的汉文史学著作。该著作具备了国民史学的性质,以"进化"、"文明"、"独立"等理念大声疾呼,期望唤醒国民,借鉴西方文明,实现国家富强。随着"国语字"的普及和汉字的衰落,汉文改良新史学的思想和观念被"国语字"史著继承、吸收,其著作亦渐隐于青史。

After a golden time of traditional character historical compilation in Nguyen Dynasty,compressions from French colonialists,and new thoughts of Europe,China and Japan,became more and more important.Intellectuals who worked for the French colonial government and Nguyen Dynasty wrote new reformism historical books in Chinese characters.Those books contain the ideas of evolution,civilization and freedom,the authors hoped to rouse Vietnamese people and cooperated with French in order to achieve prosperity of Vietnam.With the Chinese character falling into the decay and the Vietnamese language became popular,the Vietnamese historical books inherited the ideas of Chinese character historical books.In the end,Chinese character works disappeared in modern Vietnam history.
