摘要
作为传统的学术研究领域,"中世纪研究"(Medieval studies)在西方有其特定的内涵。但近年来,随着"古代晚期"及"近代早期"等概念的日益成熟,原有的"中世纪"概念不断遭到解构。目前,在该研究领域,跨学科研究已经成为普遍的共识,而且出现了一系列新的发展趋势和演化路径,其中,在性别、异端、民族、物质文化等方面的研究上,变化尤为显著。"全球中世纪"(Global Middle Ages)这种研究思路也存在着进一步发展的可能,但这一思路对现有的"中世纪研究"理念将构成巨大的挑战。
The academic field of 'Medieval Studies' has its specific connotations in the West.However,with the emergence of the concepts such as 'Late Antiquity' and 'Early Modernity',the old concept of 'the Middle Ages' has gradually suffered from deconstruction.Nowadays there is a general consensus among the medievalists that interdisciplinary studies should be adopted.More and more new trends and approaches appear on the scene.As a result,ideas about gender,heresy,nation and material culture are changing the way we look at this field.Furthermore,there is a possibility to develop the approach of a ' Global Middle Ages',although this approach will challenge existing ideas about ' Medieval Studies'.
