产生于19世纪30~40年代的“实证主义”本来源于哲学,但被推广应用到了比较文学学科,成为其重要研究方法之一。“实证”方法的精髓:强调事实,注重现实的而不是幻想的,寻找可靠的而不是可疑的。笔者从一个刚入比较文学研究门槛的初学者出发,结合曾对“中国没有悲剧”提法的疑惑,表达对“实证”方法的认识。

The “positivism” originated from the 30s to the 40s of the 19th century originated from philosophy but was widely applied to the field of comparative literature, becoming one of its important research methods. The quintessence of the “empirical” approach: Emphasize facts, focus on reality rather than fantasies, and find reliable rather than suspicious. The author starts from a beginner who has just entered the threshold of comparative literature and combines his doubts about the formulation of “China has no tragedy” to express his understanding of the “empirical” method.
