面向全球的汉字学——关于汉字研究融入国际学术体系的思考

中国的汉字研究自古及今,都有很丰富的成果,但至今没有成为世界性的独立学科,原因很多。首先,现有的学科分类体系参照西方建立,西方因为没有发达的文字学而使文字学成为语言学的依附,汉语言文字也就没有了汉字学;第二,西方学者对以汉字为代表的表意字缺少深入的研究,表意字的独特性被蔑视,汉字研究被孤立;第三,汉字研究自身存在诸多问题。汉字学的确立和走向世界,必须在深入研究汉字本体的基础上,正确认识表意字的优点和不足,理顺文字与语言的关系,构建符合实际的学术体系,克服汉字研究中研究对象人为割裂、阐释任意等等不足。在汉语热的当今世界,汉字应当是文化多样化的一极而不是交流的障碍,汉字学只有自强自立才能在国际学术体系中占有一席之地。

Chinese Philology in the Time of Globalization

From ancient times to now,there are abundant achievements of Chinese philology.But,yet it hasn’t been a cosmopolitan and independent subject.There are many reasons.First of all,the existing subject classification system is constructed by western’s.But because of no developed western philology,making philology has to depend on linguistics.Chinese linguistics hasn’t Chinese philology.Secondly,on account of western scholars are lack of further research of Chinese ideogram,the uniqueness of the ideogram is despised,and Chinese philology is isolated.Thirdly,there are many problems in the research of Chinese philology itself.The establishment and transmitting of Chinese philology must be based on further study of Chinese character ontology,and must to understand the advantages and disadvantages of ideogram,to straighten out the relationship between characters and language,to construct the actual academic system,to overcome the contrived separate and arbitrary interpret of Chinese research object.In the Mandarin fever world today,Chinese charactersshould be a kind of cultural diversity,but not communication obstacles.Chinese philology can play a part in the international academic system only if it is self-improved and self-reliant.
