摘要
中世纪英格兰乡村史研究,是美国社会学家乔治·霍曼斯学术生涯中极其重要的一个领域。在这一领域中,霍曼斯不仅关注土地制度,还将视野扩展到家庭结构、继承制度、节庆生活,并讨论习惯对村民行为的影响。以此为基础,霍曼斯初步提出互动、情感、功能等概念框架三要素,为他之后研究小社会群体和构建社会交换理论奠定了基础。他对村民及其个体意识的关注,以及对领主村民之间存在交换关系的解读,至今仍然有一定的影响力。霍曼斯这种社会学与历史学互涉的学术风格和研究路径具有重要启示意义。
The research on rural history in medieval England is an extremely important part of the academic career of the American sociologist George Homans.In this area,Homans not only focused on the land system,but also extended his vision to the corresponding family structure,inheritance system,festival life and discussed the influence of customs on villagers’behaviors.On this basis,Homans initially proposed three elements of social behavior,such as sentiment,interaction and activity,which laid the foundation for his subsequent research on small social groups and the construction of social exchange theory.His concern for the villagers and their individual consciousness,as well as his interpretation of the exchange relationship between lords and villagers,still has some vitality today.Homans’academic style and research path of the interconnection between sociology and history have important enlightenment significance.
