中央研究院副院長黃進興院士 【後現代主義與史學研究】全新改版 在二十世紀後現代主義的浪潮下 西方傳統史學節節敗退、面貌全非 與之相應的是逐步興起的後現代史學新論 西方史家如何回應這場後現代主義的挑戰？ ★詮釋「後現代主義」與「歷史學」的史學研究集大成者 ★中央研究院副院長──黃進興院士後現代史學研究精華 ★一部梳理西方史家如何回應後現代主義浪潮的經典之作 十九世紀是西方史家的黃金年代，史學網羅各個領域，是各個學科的重要泉源，而以科學史學著稱的蘭克史學，更是當時史學界的核心。然而，當二十世紀的後現代主義來襲時，史學界的形勢驟變，轉而成為眾學科的「附庸」；後現代學者宣稱的「歷史之死」宛如喪鐘般，迴盪於史學界中。 「後現代主義」是何方神聖？歷史學如何受到後現代主義影響？ ◎傳統史學的蛻變──後現代主義下西方史家的回應 二十世紀下半葉，發軔於建築、藝術等領域的後現代主義席捲史學界，本以為只是學術史上尋常的新舊交替，後現代主義卻是要全盤否定史學的存在！換句話說，在後現代主義者的眼中，講求史實的西方傳統史學將不復存在，甚至認為「歷史」不過是史家的語言遊戲。面對後現代主義的挑戰，西方史家如何應對？ 書中即以西方史家對後現代主義的回應為核心，闡述在「歷史之死」的後現代主義環境下，西方傳統史家如何抵禦後現代主義，並從中吸取理論、化為自用，為歷史學拓展出不一樣的道路。比如被視為後現代史學發源的海頓．懷特(Hayden White)，又或是有著「後現代史學祭酒」之名的傅柯(Michel Foucauli)。 在西方史家的奮鬥之下，熔後現代主義與歷史學的「後現代史學」問世，它逐漸脫去蘭克史學以來的實證史學，接納虛構的歷史。看似為史學開拓了新領域，卻也令史學陷入真實與虛構的拉扯之中。 因此，本書試圖檢討後現代主義對史學的影響，並梳理西方史家在這場衝擊之下，如何熔後現代主義與史學研究為一體、拓展史學新道路，帶領讀者一探後現代主義與歷史學之間的羈絆與聯繫。 ◎中國近代史學──「新史學」的誕生與來自西方史學的危機 除談論西方史家與後現代主義的關聯外，本書亦兼顧中文讀者的閱讀背景，從中參以中國史學議題，並援引西方史家的理論概念，為讀者梳理中國近代史學的轉變。 在清末變局之下，標榜著「經
