近代桐城湘乡派学人笔记与历史编纂

Notes and Historiography by the Xiangxiang Scholars of the Tongcheng School in Modern Times

学人笔记作为一种随笔记录的文体,不拘体例,取材随意,兼有经史子集各类内容。伴随着经学的发展和经史关系的变动,近代笔记编纂思想和体例呈现出独有的时代特点,形成“求真”、“致用”的编纂旨趣和众体兼备的编纂体例。笔记编纂众体兼备,因时制宜,在编纂时往往根据表达的需要来选择体例,而这样的体例特点赋予了笔记广阔的容纳度。中国近代,是传统学术文化的内部自我调整和西学冲击交汇时期,汉学走向衰落,汉宋合流,学术上出现了中西合流的新趋势。学人笔记编纂以诸子学的复兴为契机,在编纂环境、编纂主题、编纂视野开始了重要的转换,开始逐渐突破经史子集的历史框架。

As a style of note-taking,the scholars'notes are free of style and random in material,containing contents from studies of various schools of thought in Chinese history.With the development of Confucian classics and the change of the relationship between Confucian classics and history,the thoughts and styles of modern note-taking compilation show unique characteristics of the times,forming the compilation purport of"seeking truth"and"achieving practical purposes"and all kinds of compilation styles.Notes compilation has a wide range of forms,which are often chosen according to the needs of expression in compiling in the light of the conditions of the times.These style characteristics provide a wide space for the notes.In modern China,the internal self-adjustment of traditional academic culture and the confluence of Western learning led to the decline of the Song studies and the confluence of Han and Song studies and that of Chinese learning and Western learning.Taking the revival of the study of various schools of thought as an opportunity,the compilation of scholars'notes has been undergoing an important transformation in compilation environment,compilation theme and compilation horizon,thus breaking through the historical framework of the study of various schools of thought.
