思想史是史学中最五花八门的分支学科之一,它是一个广阔的学术领域。思想史研究涉及到目的和方法、思维活动、各种信念、各种观念、思想成就和文化成就等问题。但是,究竟什么是思想史,这个问题现在显得更为突出。目前,国外许多史学家从史学角度探讨思想史在史学界的地位、思想家的信念以及思想史同其他研究领域(如哲学史、史学史、科学史、政治经济学史、政治思想史、文学史等)的确切界限。英国《今日历史》1985年第10期以《什么是思想史》为题,约请当前英国著名史学家科利尼、霍林格、斯金纳、波科克等人就思想史在分支学科中所起的作用,如何研究思想史,思想史的涵义,研究范围,以及就一些概念,如思想活动、信念、思维、态度和见解等问题发表了各自的见解。他们的这些观点在一定程度上反映出西欧史学界的研究趋向。现摘译其中一部分,供读者参考。
