关于编辑劳动的创造性问题,仍是当前编辑学理论研究和理论建设中的一个重要课题。随着讨论的不断展开,编辑劳动具有创造性意义的观点,已为越来越多的人所接受。但是,在具体的认识上,大多数仍停留在这样一个层次上,即认为编辑劳动的创造意义主要表现为创造的参与性和创造的二度性,是一种间接创造,或曰再创造,而对编辑创造的主体性、直接性,尚持有不同程度的保留态度。我以为,对编辑劳动创造性的探讨,不应局限在狭隘的编辑工艺流程的圈子里,而应在人类文化建构的宏观背景上来考察编辑活动的本质意义和它的社会价值、社会作用。唯此,认识才可能深入。人类文化建构是一项宏大的系统工程,编辑创造和作者创造同是这一系统工程中不可缺少而又密切相联的两个环节。任何文化 The editorial work on the creative issues, is still editorial theory and theoretical construction of an important issue. As discussions continue to unfold, editorial labor’s creative point of view has been accepted by more and more people.

I think that the discussion of editorial labor creativity should not be confined to the narrow process of editorial process, but should examine the essential meaning of editorial activities and its social value and social function on the macro background of human cultural construction. Only this, understanding can be in-depth. The construction of human culture is a grand systematic project. The creation of editors and the creation of authors are both indispensable and closely linked in this systematic project. Any culture
