碩士 / 逢甲大學 / 歷史與文物管理所 / 97 / This paper discusses how public historian represents the past as well as the models and meanings of their historical thinking through the analysis of Shonenko and The History of Takunan Adolescent.
There are four preliminary conclusions in this paper. First, in order to represent historical fact, Shonenko and The History of Takunan Adolescent construct historical documents that were seldom in historical texts to “construct historical truth” or “improve historical content”. Second, public historians depend on their familiarities with the medium when communicating information given that the framework of historical narrative is influenced by the character of the medium. Third, because the public comes from different background, has some specialities, historical memory, and its own self-identity, they are affected by their conceptions and attitudes on explaining history. Fourth, in order to represent historical thinking, the public organizes historical fact with its historical thinking to present popular and official history. Shonenko and The History of Takunan Adolescent write history and express the historical thinking and conscience of the public historian through the above four points.
