Research On Genealogy Literature And Disciplinary Theory Construction In Mainland China In Recent 40 Years(1978-2017)

The research object of this paper is the achievements and existing problems in the genealogy research and genealogy discipline construction in mainland China in the past 40 years.The dissertation consists of five chapters:The introduction part is the first chapter of this article,which indicates the research object and research method of this article.Explain the concept of "family genealogy",collect the definitions and aliases of related works on "family genealogy",identify the similarities and differences,select the more general and appropriate ones,and sort out the general development history and predecessors of genealogy research after modem normative academic research.The research achievements,discussed the deficiencies of previous studies,and pointed out the problems to be solved.Explain the motivation,purpose,scope,and method of the topic research.The second chapter discusses the academic stages of genealogy research in the past forty years.It will be based on the specific events or achievements of the family genealogy research leading the research direction and academic atmosphere in the forty years,and divided according to the academic trends and research characteristics of each stage.The generalogy study’s warm-up period(1978-1988),development period(1989-2000)and boom period(2001-2017)were reviewed to understand the general context of the genealogical study and the general context of the background vision and the impact contributed to this situation.The purpose of the relevant background and main reasons.Chapter 3 will capture the achievements of the major genealogy institutes in mainland China over the past 40 years.From the collection and collation of genealogical data in mainland China over the past 40 years,research hotspots and regional characteristics of genealogical research have included:academic institutions,Research direction and characteristics,genealogy collection institutions,major genealogy research publications,academic conferences,and related national social sciences achievements.The similarities and differences between research perspectives and research ideas used by researchers in the study of family genealogy during the period are roughly divided into nearly forty years.The hot issues of genealogy research are divided into:Introduction to Genealogy,Classes of Chinese National Spectrum,and Genealogy.Research categories.It has attempted to map out the academic maps of genealogy studies in mainland China in the past 40 years and outline the academic genealogy of genealogy research.The fourth chapter focuses on investigating the issues of exchange and cooperation with Hong Kong,Taiwan and overseas scholars in the study of genealogy in mainland China in the past 40 years.The study of genealogy in the Chinese mainland from the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic to the time of reform and opening up was chilled.This has been covered in the review of academic history and is no longer a complaint in this section.What needs to be mentioned is that the Chinese national and overseas studies of Hong Kong,Taiwan and overseas countries have not been interrupted.In many respects,it is worth learning and learning from us.After the reform and opening up,the mainland scholars have obtained rich research results and have frequent academic exchanges with each other,and they have also learmed from each other.The further prosperity of genealogy research.The fifth chapter as a conclusion chapter,based on the discourse of the first four chapters of this article,discusses the exploratory study,and discusses the prospects of genealogy research in the past forty years and the prospects of constructing an independent falily genealogy system centered on genealogical literature and materials.It is believed that the Chinese national literature has entered into the boom period of research and has achieved fruitful research results,but at the same time there are also some questions worth pondering:First,genealogy research is often used as a research reference material for other disciplines,and genealogy research has fallen into a false embarrassing position.Judging from the current research ideas,genealogy has never escaped the status of the vassal of other disciplines.Although China has a long tradition of family genealogy(acient genealogies),the number of clan genealogy documents is huge and its content is rich.However,in terms of its current genealogy discipline construction,most researchers use it as research materials for other disciplines.The all-encompassing content of this discipline is divided into other disciplines such as history,library science,genetics,sociology,and cultural anthropology.The nominal research scope of "Genealogy" is huge,but the actual research is limited to the collection,collation and cataloging of the genealogical materials.Second,the lack of theoretical construction of genealogy studies hinders the development of genealogy.The current genealogy research methods are relatively simple.In addition to traditional studies such as genealogy,genealogy history,and genealogical surveys,current genealogy researchers focus on the case study of genealogy of geographical surnames and interpret it on the surface of the text,lacking horizontal or vertical academic research.There are few research results in broadening academic horizons and in-depth discussions.There are even rare books on the construction and systematic discussion of genealogy science.Third,the network data of family tree is mixed.The digitization of genealogical literature is one of the trends in the development of genealogy research in recent years.Apart from facilitating the preservation of ancient texts,the dataization of genealogical literature has unparalleled advantages in the sharing and dissemination of resources,and resource retrieval gives research.The great conveuience of the readers improves the efficiency of document retrieval and saves a lot of energy and time.The digitization of family tree materials also shortens the research cycle and improves the efficiency of academic research work.In a sense,it extends the scholars’ Academic life;on the other hand,the dataization of genealogical literature will weaken the literature features and textual personalization features that cause genealogical materials in different layers,which is alsp a lack of rescarch information for rescarchers.Thinking about the problems and solutions to the system construction of genealogy disciplines,and developing issues such as the academic positioning,subject attribution,research ideas,and subject personnel training of genealogy disciplines,pondering and advising on issues such as system construction of genealogy disciplines to promote The development of family genealogy is continuous.
