柳诒徵立足时代全面考察中国传统史义，指出中国传统史学以道德仁义为原则褒善贬恶，这既是建立人间基本秩序、维护人道的必然要求，又是受命于天的善善恶恶之人性的自然生成，故传统史义上承天命、下涵人道，既获得了超越的天道支撑又具有现实的人道依据；其次，中国传统史学在褒贬具体人事的过程中强调正义与不义相反相成、常义与变义相辅而行，呈现出灵活通变的辩证思维，故柳氏以与时俱变、与事俱变的“中庸之道”作为中国传统史义的实现模式；最后，柳诒徵又引入权利与义务等现代观念分析君臣伦理，揭示出中国传统史义的普适意蕴，奠定了中国传统史义的现代发展路向。柳诒徵对中国传统史学大义的阐释既饱含浓烈的家国情怀又富有冷静的理性思考，既坚持传统的治学方法又采取现代的学术研究路径，其新旧夹杂的治学风格与著作方式虽有助于传统史学的现代化但也存在一些局限。%LIU Yi-zheng studies origin, content and significance of Shi Yi in Chinese traditional his⁃toriography comprehensively in his Important Points of National History.
