摘要
历史人物的生死,一般是人物研究的起点和终点。实则对于历史人物的盖棺论定,由于各自的立场观念差异,往往形成罗生门式的演义,可以成为新的研究主题。野史不著作者的《张文襄公事略》,经考查,其实是张之洞死后不久,上海的《新闻报》、《申报》、《时报》、《神州日报》、《民吁日报》等报所刊发的报道、悼念及评论文章(包括译载《文汇报》、《字林报》、《泰晤士报》等外报)的汇编。编纂者有一定的取舍标准和编排调整,但未作删改,可见各报对于张之洞一生具体功过是非看法的千差万别。参照该书所引各报未收入的其他相关报道评论,以及该书未引各报的报道评论,不仅可以探究编纂者的态度倾向,而且可以将张之洞之死作为研究的起点,观察舆论的反应,深究各方的态度,进而考察重要人物的离去所引起的政局和社会波动。
The life and death of a historical figure generally makes a starting point and the end of studies on him. But, in fact, because of the differences of positions and ideas, there would be disputes that make up new topics for study. Zhang Zhidong's death is such a case. The diversity of valuation on his life on various newspapers can not only probe the orientation of the editors, but also observe the reflection of opinions and attitudes, which is valuable for probing the movement of politics and society on the death of an important figure.
