摘　　要：余英时在相对承认"外缘论"的基础上,独辟蹊径,采取"内在理路"的分析框架,揭示五四文化运动的传统渊源,实现了五四思想史研究范式的转变。由于时代背景和历史文化特点不同,余英时反对以西方的文艺复兴或启蒙运动比附五四新文化运动,认为中国不需要文艺复兴,启蒙之说在中国也是无根的。他一方面肯定五四的价值,一方面对五四的缺点给予无情的批判,主张继承五四,超越五四,在对中西文化正确认识的基础上,正确处理传统与现代、中学与西学的关系,潜心研究,以退而结网的精神重建中国文化。Among those overseas scholars studying the history of the May 4^th thoughts, Yu Yingshih distinguished himself with his unique views. Although he acknowledged the ＂peripheral view＂, he developed a new research method of his own by adopting the analytical framework of ＂intrinsic logic＂ to reveal the traditional origin of the May 4^th Movement and realized the transition of research paradigm in studying the history of the May 4^th thoughts. Yu objected to comparing China＇ s May 4^th New Cultural Movement to the western renaissance or the Enlightenment because of their different historical background and cultural characteristics. He held that China did not need renaissance and the enlightenment was unfounded in China. On one hand, he affirmed the value of the May 4^th Movement; on the other, he unmercifully criticized the defects of the Movement. He argued that we should carry forward and surpass the spirit of the May 4th Movement and properly handle the relationship between tradition and modernity and that between traditional Chinese values and western knowledge on the basis of having a right knowledge of Chinese and western cultures. He also upheld that we should conduct more researches and reconstruct Chinese culture in a down-to-earth spirit.
