摘要
环境史学是 2 0世纪六七十年代在美国兴起的历史学新领域 ,是以历史学为基础的有关人类与环境关系研究的多学科交叉的产物 ,其中 ,人文地理学与环境史学密切相关。从阿·德芒戎的人文地理学思想来看 ,环境史学无论在定义、研究对象还是在方法原则上 ,都与人文地理学既有联系又有区别。联系的基础在于它们都致力于探讨人类与环境的关系。但由于它们对这一关系的具体认识和研究目的的不同 ,二者之间又有差异。认清这一问题 ,有助于我们更好地把握环境史研究的对象和侧重点 ,以推动环境史学在我国学界的发展。
Environmental history is a new historical field appearing in the USA during the 1960s and 1970s. It is the result of interdisciplinary approaches on the relations between human being and environment based on history. Human geography has a close relationship with environmental history. In view of A. Demangeon's thoughts of human geography, no matter what the definition is, the object or the method of environmental history is of both differences and close connection with human geography. The connection can be found from the fact that both of them have tried to study the relationship between human being and environment. However, there is a distinction between the two because of the differences they have on their understandings of the relations and on their diverse research goals. To know this clearly will help us to better understand the object and special emphasis of environmental history so as to promote its development in Chinese academic circle.
