This book is an interview record. The four words "changes from ancient times to the present" come from the "Records of the Grand Historian" by Sima Qian, a historian of the Han Dynasty. Later, historians of all generations regarded them as the starting point and foothold for studying history, so as to explore the process of development and change of human society. The interviewer of this book is Li Li, a famous domestic scholar, and the interviewees are archaeologist Xu Hong, historians Luo Xin and Ge Zhaoguang, as well as overseas sinologists Schneider, Naoki Hazama, Shinichi Sato and others. It should be said that the achievements of these scholars are well-known both at home and abroad. They have made good interpretations of the research on Chinese Xia, Shang and Zhou archaeology, the dispute between Confucianism and Legalism in ancient China, the Meiji Restoration and the Reform Movement of 1898, and the academic changes in modern China.
本书是一本访谈录。“古今之变”四个字, 来自汉代史学家司马迁的《史记》, 后来被历代史学家奉为研究历史的出发点和落脚点, 以此探寻人类社会发展变迁的过程。本书的访谈者为国内著名学者李礼, 访谈对象为考古学家许宏, 历史学者罗新、葛兆光, 以及海外汉学家施耐德、狭间直树、佐藤慎一等人。应该说, 这些学者的成就是享誉中外的。他们对中国夏商周考古学的研究, 对中国古代的儒法之争, 对明治维新与戊戌变法, 对近代中国的学术变迁, 都进行了很好的解读。
