【摘要】：古代中国与西方的历史及史学之比较,是史学界长期关注的问题。本栏目的三篇文章,或在比较的视野下研究中国和西方历史及史学的某一问题,或对中西史学某一问题作对称性的比较,均有助于深入理解中西历史及史学的核心问题。蒋重跃教授的文章认为,中国古代学者对"道"的理解习惯于意会和描述。近代中国学者多参考西方"基始"或"本体"等概念来界说"道"的内涵。然而西方的"基始"等概念强调的是内涵的横向构成要素和方式,《老子》的"道"强调的则是"道"纵向变化的历史性。杨共乐教授的文章认为,人才强国是罗马迅速崛起的重要原因。罗马在向其他文明学习的过程中,不断充实自我,形成了自身的特点,对西方文明的发展产生了重要影响。易宁教授的文章讨论古代中国的通史与西方的普世史观念。他指出,对于历史变化的认识,中西史家的认识之异中亦各存其所同。中国史家重视历史在纵向时间上的变化与横向空间内容之间的联系(通);西方史家则重视从一个不变的基点认识历史的变化。此两方面之不同,是古代中西历史思维在最深的层次上所表现出的不同特点。
[Abstract]:The comparison of history and historiography between ancient China and the West is a long-term concern in the field of history. The three articles in this column, or to study a certain problem of Chinese and Western history and historiography from the perspective of comparison, or to make a symmetry comparison of a certain problem of Chinese and Western historiography, are all helpful to deeply understand the core problems of Chinese and Western history and historiography. According to Professor Jiang Zhongyue's article, ancient Chinese scholars' understanding of Tao is accustomed to meeting and describing. Modern Chinese scholars often refer to western concepts such as "beginning" or "Noumenon" to define the connotation of "Tao". However, the western concept of "beginning" emphasizes the horizontal elements and ways of connotation, while "Tao" of Laozi emphasizes the history of the vertical change of "Tao". Professor Yang Tongle's article believes that the talent power is an important reason for the rapid rise of Rome. In the course of learning from other civilizations, Rome constantly enriched itself and formed its own characteristics, which had an important influence on the development of western civilization. Professor Yi Ning's article discusses the general history of ancient China and the concept of universal history in the West. He pointed out that the understanding of historical changes, Chinese and Western historians in their different understanding of the same. Chinese historians attach importance to the relationship between historical changes in vertical time and horizontal spatial content, while western historians attach importance to understanding historical changes from an invariable basis point. The differences between these two aspects are the characteristics of ancient Chinese and western historical thinking on the deepest level.
