地方志的继承与创新论议——以清代与民国“秦州志”编纂为例

Discussion on the inheritance and innovation of local chronicles——Taking the compilation of"Qinzhou Annals"in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China as an example

古今修志,继承与创新都是主旋律。清代至民国,秦州前后多次修志,留有五部州志,梳理其修志历史,研究其编纂思想,即可窥见方志继承与创新之脉络。胡缵宗《秦州志序》反复说明地方志功用及其对修志实践的不断探索创新。现存五部“秦州志”,三部特意标明“新”,以示在体例及记述内容方面的创新。

Both inheritance and innovation play a major role in the compilation of local chronicles,ancient and modern.Numerous Qinzhou annals were compiled successively from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China,and now five of them have been preserved.We can have a glimpse of the veins of inheritance and innovation by reviewing the compilation history and studying the thought of annals compilation.In the preface to Qinzhou Annals,Hu Zuanzong had repeatedly explained the functions of local chronicles as well as the continuous exploration and innovation in the practice of compiling local chronicles.Among the five extant"Qinzhou Annals",three are specially marked with"new"to show the innovation in style and description content.
