布哈林《历史唯物主义理论》在20世纪30年代中国的传播与理论扬弃北大核心CSSCI

20世纪30年代是近代中国大量译介国外各种唯物史观理论书籍的时期,一本多译的情况比较普遍。布哈林《历史唯物主义理论》一书便是其中中译本较多的著作。民国时期《历史唯物主义理论》多种译本的广泛流行,对传播历史唯物主义理论起到了积极作用。但是,时人注意到布哈林的理论中存在机械性等问题,故在将其作为知识资源时,逐渐扬弃之。深入考察《历史唯物主义理论》一书在20世纪30年代中国的译介、传播和理论扬弃,可以一窥民国时期国外同类理论著述影响中国思想界、学术界的复杂面相。研究唯物史观在近代中国的构建,不仅应梳理理论内在的演变逻辑,也须梳理其文本传播的演进脉络。在此基础上,对唯物史观理论中国化的具体历程,则会有更深入的认识。

Receptions of Nikolai Bukharin's Historical Materialism in China in the 1930s

The 1930s witnessed a great quantity of foreign works on historical materialism being translated into Chinese and introduced into China,and it was common that one book had serval versions of translation.During this period,Historical Materialism: A System of Sociology by Nikolai Bukharin had the most versions of translation. The popularity of this book induced dissemination of Marxist theory of historical materialism in the Republica of China. This book,along with other Chinese translations and introductions,became source of reference in the theorization of Marxist historical materialism in the 1930s. Meanwhile,people of the time had already noticed problems such as mechanism in Bukharin’s view of historical materialism,and gradually sublated his theory while continuously referring to it as source of reference. In studying the rise of historical materialism as a view on history in modern China,we should not only examine the internal logic of theory,but also trace its spread and dissemination. Taking the translation,introduction,dissemination and theoretical sublation of Bukharin’s theory of historical materialism in the 1930s as an example,this article uncovers the complex and dynamic process of receptions of foreign theories of historical materialism in Chinese intellectual circles in the Republican period,and deepens our understanding of the Sinification of historical materialism in China.
