How to define the terminology objective pursuit is the key to develop the given issue. Merely according to the statement the exploring of history is so-called a creative enterprise because we never know the past directly but construct it by interpreting evidence. Actually, that is nearly the same in exploring science. If we consider the study of science is objective which relies on a undoubtedly fact, then the processingprocess of studying history is also an objective pursuit, for it shares the same main principle of science.
However, history which is only an explantionexplanation drawn from logical deduction only can be proved by facts, while science premise and presumptuous explanation can be examined in a systematic and scientific method ---- mathematics, and that is what makes differentdifferences between the two.
It is so obvious in the study of entity in science, for it can be simply established by seeing them from the advanced equipment and with the developing technology, we indeed cannot deny the existence of some certain entities, in this way the discovery of a new element can strongly supported. As to history, while there is no such technique to reflect the past time, there is no such a tangible image to become potent evidence to uphold it and make sure that every detail is correct.
Perhaps, the ideaanalogy,这样的话逻辑上是不是好一些,你是想说历史和科学的类比不很恰当对把? is not very proper, because the way of exploring history is more like the way to give an explanation rather than discover a new material. There is another kind of research in science which deals with the explanations of some nature phenomena. We use the similar way of studying history to beginning the study. To give an explanation, scientists first provide a likely premise theory according to some observed facts and other established theories like the historians give an explanation based on interpreting evidence. So far, it has been exactly the same as studying history, Butbut in next step, they are different. In order to demonstrate whether the science theory is true or false, scientists use specific way to speculate the possible result of the mode whose result is known according to the theory. If the speculated result is coinciding with the fact, it means that the premise is correct; if not it means the premise needs to be revised. During this course, mathematics plays aan important role. It is sheer logical thinking avoiding prejudice, which prevailingly exist in the thinking. It offers us a scientific method to demonstrate the science explanation, whereas the history cannot be demonstrated in such a justice way.
Vestiges which are rare The rare vestiges are the sole objective evidence to support the discoveries of history, and some valuable sites are destroyed to large extent. But even those concrete entities, which preserved in good condition, cannot show all the details. Because each piece of evidence is just like an individual pearl, only accumulated in a enough number then the necklace can be made, but the method to make it varies from individual to individual and the thread is imagination.这一句好好,你从哪学来的? in this way, historians' explanation is formed by using limited facts to make up a whole history which is like the author to use some archetypes to develop a story. Both are are去掉 need imagining as well deducing.
Sometimes the history is entirely storyan entire story for historians used the pure stories such as sage legends to rebuild the history. They collect those legends and join them together like some story collectors , and there comes the history.
In conclusion, historians are storytellers, because there is no objective and systematic way to examine every step they deduce, nor there is no sheer just record to depend on when comes to the details. Historians rebuild the history on their own experience and perceptions. In this way, historians share the most important features of storytellers, and the most important factor in reconstructing is the imagination.
呵呵,读完你的文章还是有些云里雾里,不知道你以前是否总用这种假设呢?很可能是偶水平不够,不过科学和历史扯一块有些……还有,文章的构思是不是有些中式化,层层下来,最后说重点很含蓄historians share the most important features of storytellers, and the most important factor in reconstructing is the imagination.第5段才提出的imagination是不是开头就可以说呢?
