唯物史观视域下的梁启超进化史观

Liang Qichao’s Evolutionary Perspective from the Perspective of Materialist Historiography

进化史观是中国在特定历史发展条件下的创新产物,是从变易史观到唯物史观的重要过渡。梁启超的进化史观蕴含着丰富的唯物史观要素,值得挖掘和阐发。在唯物史观视域下,梁启超在几个方面有着深刻的且与唯物史观相近、相通的观点:一是对社会历史发展规律的深刻见解;二是对历史发展动力的独到理解;三是关于人民群众的历史地位问题上,肯定人民群众的主体地位,批判了传统的英雄史观。这些促使中国的先进人物容易理解和接受唯物史观,也为唯物史观在中国的早期传播奠定了思想基础。

The evolutionary perspective is an innovative product of China under specific historical development conditions and an important transition from the perspective of changes to the perspective of dialectical materialism. Liang Qichao’s evolutionary perspective contains rich elements of dialectical materialism and is worthy of exploration and elaboration. From the perspective of dialectical materialism, Liang Qichao has profound and similar views in several aspects: firstly, a deep understanding of the laws of social and historical development;secondly, a unique understanding of the driving force behind historical development;thirdly, in the issue of the historical status of the people, he affirmed the subject status of the people and criticized the traditional hero-centered historical perspective. These factors made it easier for advanced Chinese intellectuals to understand and accept dialectical materialism, and laid the ideological foundation for the early dissemination of dialectical materialism in China.
