落笔传真情 钩沉窥交际——我国信札研究回顾(1998-2022)

Review of Current Researches on Chinese Correspondences(1998-2022)

信札文献是具有极高史料价值的特殊文献,对我国信札研究现状的探索有助于梳理信札文献整理研究发展脉络,进一步发掘信札文献的学术价值。文章以CSSCI收录的信札研究文献为数据源,通过计量分析与内容分析,展现信札研究现状;通过已发表信札论文涉及历史人物的社交网络图谱构建,探索数字人文背景下信札研究的新思路。研究表明:信札研究是我国多学科关注领域,信札研究的进一步深入有赖于更多信札的披露与揭示;信札研究应与数字人文技术同步,运用语义标注、图像标注、多维数据分析、社会网络分析等实现信札内容的深度知识组织和呈现;应适时构建信札文献数据库。

Correspondences,or letters,are an important kind of special documents with great historical value.By means of bibliometric and content analysis,this paper analyzes academic papers on Chinese correspondences published on CSSCI-indexed journals from 1998 to 2022,so as to know more about researches on Chinese correspondences and highlight the scholarly value of Chinese correspondences.Besides,it constructs a social network diagram of historical figures involved in such academic papers,aiming to propose a Digital Humanities approach for researches on Chinese correspondences.The result shows that the interdisciplinary nature of researches on correspondences requires the greater access to correspondences as well as the application of more Digital Humanities technologies,such as semantic annotation,image annotation,multi-dimensional analysis,and social network analysis,so as to improve the knowledge organization and presentation of correspondences.And it is also necessary to construct some databases of correspondences in the future.
