【摘要】：历史人类学者走向田野,不只为了收集文献,更重要的目的,是在田野的经验下去了解文献。田野的经验,令他们知道历史上大部分的人都不识字,所以需要应用文献以外的办法去了解没有文献的人的历史。这些办法包括口述传说、物质文化以及尤其重要的礼仪演绎。通过诸多途径重构的制度史,不单是皇朝的法令,还包括民间怎样利用和引申皇朝的法令而建立的种种关系。但是,历史人类学不能停留在个别乡村的考察,需要通过不同地点、不同环境的地方比较,才可以得到广阔的视野。历史人类学也不应该只关注皇朝的时代,二十世纪的历史有很多地方值得利用历史人类学的取向去补充。历史人类学需要让历史学者知道文献之外有活的社会,让人类学者知道社会有活的历史。
[Abstract]:Historical anthropologists go to the field not only for the purpose of collecting documents, but, more importantly, for the purpose of learning about them in the field experience, which has taught them that most of the people in history are illiterate, So we need to use other methods to understand the history of people who don't have documents. These methods include oral legends, material culture, and especially important etiquette deductions.The institutional history reconstructed by many means, not just the imperial decrees, But historical anthropology cannot remain in the study of individual villages. It needs to be compared in different places, different places, different environments. Historical anthropology should not only focus on the times of the imperial dynasty, There are many aspects of the history of the twentieth century that deserve to be supplemented by the orientation of historical anthropology. Historical anthropology needs to let historians know that there is a living society outside the literature and that anthropologists know that society has a living history.
