唐、宋两代史学不同,陈寅恪以为宋优于唐。为什么会这样?究竟异在何处?唐初就大修史书,唐太宗亲自参预撰写《晋书》。和汉代一样,唐代整理并总结旧籍很有成绩,但也是古籍亡佚的原因之一。将《隋书》、《晋书》、《南史》、《北史》和宋代《新唐书》、《新五代史》、《资治通鉴》等一比,就可看出唐代人和宋代人对历史的看法大不相同。唐代人不大分辨史实和传说,仍承汉魏六朝以至西域的传统,眼中显现的是一个人神不分的世界。宋代人只承认活人的世界。 Tang and Song dynasties historically different, Chen Yin Ke that Song superior to Tang. Why is this? What exactly different? Early overhaul history book, Tang Taizong personally involved in the preparation of “Book of Jin.” Like the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty compiled and summarized the old books very much, but it is also one of the reasons for the loss of ancient books. A comparison of “Sui Shu”, “Jin Shu”, “Nan Shi”, “Northern History” and “New Tang Book” in Song Dynasty, “New Five Dynasties History”, “Zi Zhi Tong Jian” Song people’s views of history vary greatly. The people in the Tang Dynasty did not make a big difference between the historical facts and legends, and still inherited the tradition of the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties and even the Western Regions. What they saw was a world where people are inseparable. The Song recognized only the living world.
