The autobiographies of historical figures have been an important primary source for historical research on China. Many long-lived scholars and translators have published their autobiographies to recall their life journeys and bear witness to the historical development of modern China. The newly published autobiography of renowned English-to-Chinese translator Yang Yi provides a landscape of social life in modern China and presents a left-elite historical narrative of the Republic of China (ROC, 中 華 民 國 , 1912-1949).

Abstract Over five decades, environmental crises have spurred the study of environmental history and the field has seen immense growth. Chinese studies of environmental history have also flourished but the field is still young and needs to be developed further. Chinese environmental studies should build upon the first premise of history described in the Marxist theory of the relationship between humans and nature. Life-centered historical thinking must consider humans’ natural biological needs. To build appropriate narrative frameworks, we should learn from international methodologies and disciplines like ecology to explore the interactive and complex relationships between human systems and natural systems. With the goal of investigating Chinese “ways of life,” we must strengthen the study of environmental thought and ecological cultural history and find indigenous conceptual language to refine critical theories, improve scholarship, and highlight Chinese characteristics.

Abstract Mark Elvin’s The Retreat of the Elephants: An Environmental History of China is one of the best comprehensive works on the environmental history of China both at home and abroad, and has deservedly garnered much praise. However, the rationality of the sources it cites and the suitability of their application is quite controversial, chiefly centering on how sources in the category of poetry and literature, which are newly drawing attention, can more effectively play a role in the field of environmental history. One of Elvin’s objectives was to outline the true history of environmental development, drawing upon traditional sources from the classical Chinese canons as well as previous Chinese findings, and with respect to the interpretation of specific environmental issues, he essentially realized this vision. However, that he relied solely on interpretations of poetic and literary sources in elevating microcosmic events to macroscopic constructs seems like a stretch, and errors and misinterpretations arising from substituting psychological facts for historical facts are present as well; the addition of “overreaching” value judgments causes him to unwittingly succumb to the pitfall of the theory of linear aggravation of environmental decline. He is not the sole example of such tendencies, which are also clearly reflected in environmental histories of China written by Western scholars, as represented by Robert B. Marks, Elizabeth C. Economy, and so on, and which are in urgent need of correction. Appropriate sources are the basis for an accurate understanding of environmental issues, and objective interpretation is the premise for obtaining rational solutions. Avoiding existing malpractices, transforming the historical sources in various disciplines, and clarifying the place of the “environment” in the past, present and future are still focal points in current research on the environmental history of China.
摘要 马克-埃尔文(Mark Elvin)的《大象的退却》(The Retreat of the Elephants:马克-埃尔文的《大象的退却:中国环境史》是国内外研究中国环境史最优秀的综合性著作之一,当之无愧地赢得了广泛赞誉。然而,该书引用资料的合理性及其应用的适宜性却颇具争议,主要集中在新近引起关注的诗歌和文学类资料如何在环境史领域更有效地发挥作用。埃尔文的目标之一是借助中国古典典籍中的传统资料以及中国以往的研究成果,勾勒出环境发展的真实历史,在对具体环境问题的阐释方面,他基本上实现了这一设想。然而,他仅仅依靠对诗文资料的解读就将微观事件上升为宏观建构,似乎有些牵强,以心理事实代替历史事实而产生的错误和误读也是存在的,加上 "过激 "的价值判断,使他在不知不觉中陷入了环境衰退线性加剧论的陷阱。这种倾向并非他一人所为,在以罗伯特-B-马克斯、伊丽莎白-C-经济学等为代表的西方学者撰写的中国环境史中也有明显体现,亟待纠正。恰当的资料来源是准确认识环境问题的基础,客观的解读是合理解决问题的前提。避免现有弊端,改造各学科史料,厘清 "环境 "在过去、现在和未来中的位置,仍是当前中国环境史研究的重点。
