中国古代史研究渐渐走上了世界舞台,有了全球化趋势。美国的中国学研究特色在于:美国学者往往以西方的人文修养和训练为依托,并受美国的学术和社会潮流的深刻影响,从而形成与中国学者不同的研究思路和方法。西方学者就是反观中国的一面镜子。中国文学、中国历史的研究并不受全球知识生产霸权的影响。研究中国古代历史的美国学者对考古学有浓厚兴趣,而且越来越多的古典文献学者对中国产生兴趣。史嘉柏教授的《构筑过去:中国古代史学的形式和思想》考察《左传》的建构方式,认为撰写《左传》的不知名史学家在文本中提供了他们对过去的阐释。
The study of ancient Chinese history has gradually embarked on the world stage, with the trend of globalization. The characteristic of Chinese studies in the United States is that American scholars often rely on the humanistic cultivation and training in the West and are deeply influenced by the academic and social trends in the United States to form different research ideas and methods with Chinese scholars. Western scholars are looking back at China’s mirror. The study of Chinese literature and Chinese history is not influenced by the hegemony of global knowledge production. American scholars who studied ancient Chinese history have a keen interest in archeology, and more and more classical scholars have become interested in China. Professor Shi Jiabao’s “Building the Past: the Forms and Thoughts of Ancient Chinese History” examines the construction of “Zuo Zhuan” and argues that unidentified historians writing “Zuo Zhuan” provided their explanations of the past in the text.
