摘　　要：自20世纪六七十年代以来,随着环境史作为历史学新领域的兴起和发展,包括环境史概念本身作为新知识点的广泛传播,世界各国的环境史学者在浩如烟海的著述中不断引用乃至构建新概念,从而使得多种门类的新历史得以问世。这种新概念和新历史,不啻体现了环境史对古老历史学的最直观、最显性的创新,即构筑了一套新历史知识体系。将这套新历史知识体系与已有的历史著述相整合,一定程度上可以认知关于过去的新世界,也即历史的生态世界。这不仅为历史学发展打下了新的基础,也有助于推进生态文明建设。With the rise and development of environmental history as a new field of historiography since 1960 s and 1970 s, including the wide spread of the concept of environmental history itself as a new historical knowledge, environmental historians all over the world have been applying or constructing many new concepts in numerous works, thus making a variety of new histories come into being. This kind of new concept and new history not only reflects the most intuitive and explicit innovation of environmental history to ancient historiography, but also constructs a new historical knowledge system. By integrating this new historical knowledge system with existing historical writings, we can, to a certain extent, recognize a new world of the past, that is, an ecological world of history. This not only laid a new foundation for the development of history, but also helped promote the construction of ecological civilization.
