关于中国法律史研究的几点省思

摘要

In recent years, much headway in the study of the Chinese legal history has been made, but still it lacks necessary and conscious study of the procedural law of the Chinese legal history. Therefore, the article, based the discussion of study method of Chinese legal history on the status quo of the research, is made of four parts: 1) one premise of discussing method; 2) the so-called "historical truth"; 3) textual research and interpretation; 4) historical data and theory.%近些年来，尽管学界对中国法律史研究有了长足的进步，但是，对于中国法律史研究的方法问题，依然缺乏必要的、自觉的省思。据此，本文从中国法律史研究的现状出发，对于中国法律史研究的方法问题进行一番检讨。文章共分四个部分：首先，谈论方法的一个前提；其次，所谓历史的本来面目；再次，考证与解释；最后，史料与理论。
