摘要
明清时期史学的一个显著特点是由国家组织的大规模的修史活动频繁,编纂了大量卷帙庞大的历史著作。这种史学现象的出现,与封建社会末期封建国家职能完善及统治者对发挥国家职能的自觉,有着十分密切的关系。无论是从发挥国家的社会职能讲,还是从发挥国家的统治职能讲,都对明清两朝的官修史籍的活动有重大的影响。封建国家的职能发挥,对于史学发展来说,是一把双刃剑,既有积极意义,也有消极意义。
There was a remarkable feature in the historiography during the Ming and Qing Dynasties when considerable amount of books on history were compiled by the government on a frequent basis. This historiographic phenomenon was closely related to the perfection of the late feudal state functions of the feudal society and self-consciousness of wielding state functions. The wielding of state functions whether of social or governing nature had important impact on the official historiography of the Ming and Qing Dynasties which was a double-edged sword, with both positive and negative implications to the development of historiography.
