摘要
中国古代“博物”观念及其相关工具书具有鲜明的人文特征,反映了中国传统的知识结构和分类体系。西方学科分类意义的博物学概念在近代传入中国,据此,中国编辑出版了新式博物学教科书和辞书。考察中国博物观念及其工具书从古代到近代的演变,比较中西知识结构和分类体系的不同,具有多方面的学术价值。
In ancient China, the concept of "natural history" and its correlative reference books, which reflected the traditional knowledge structures and classification syttems of China, were characterized by humanism significantly. As natural history concept in western subject classification was introduced to China in modern times, new textbooks and dictionaries on natural history were published. Reviewing the evolvement of natural history concept and reference books from ancient to modern times in China and comparing the differences between knowledge structures and classification systems of China and western world are of various academic values.
