Abstract
本文嘗試批判性地綜述十七世紀以降西方世界(主要是歐美地區)漢學的發展。透過考察歐美漢學家個別學術著作的歷史背景與特色,作者提醒東亞地區的人文學者受西方漢學方法與問題意識衝擊之後進而 “發現自我”,並深入探索自身歷史文化進而發現危機與機遇的重要性。本文主線以科學實證、語文翻譯、宗教哲學三個領域為主,其中也具體討論到個別著作的得與失,以及對研究方法的檢討。
This paper critically reviews the development of sinology in the western world since the seventeenth century, with particular reference to Europe and North America. It focuses on three main thematic areas—scientific positivism and philology, translation and interpretation, and history and philosophy—discussing and parsing the wide variety of scholarship across disciplines. Observing and responding to the scholarship of individual scholars, the author examines the cultural contexts and intellectual characteristics of western sinology, with a view to assessing its scholarly and philosophical impact on East Asian scholars. The lesson to be learnt is that while western sinology offers opportunities and stimuli for creatively rethinking our exploration and understanding of the multiple dimensions of China in intercultural terms, East Asian sinologists must deepen their knowledge of their own history and culture in order to be effective interlocutors in the ongoing dialogues.
