摘　　要：卡洛·金兹伯格的微观史书写采用了现代主义文学的风格,其目的在于保证历史叙事的如实性。这缘于他在思考如何真实讲述小人物历史时,发现史料限制使书写难以如实,且这是实证主义历史书写的范式弊端。同时,他认为借鉴现代主义文学的自我剖白式书写可以保持历史叙事的如实。这种风格在金氏微观史的叙事中体现为三个特征,即弱化作者的叙事权威性,采用多视角的“复调”叙事结构,以及引导读者的自主思考。金兹伯格关于历史叙事如实性的探究,示范了一条克服后现代主义怀疑论的合理思路,揭示了“叙事史复兴”这一史学史概念中尚未被明确的内容。在信息多元化的趋势下,现代主义文学风格的历史叙事可能成为书写当代史的合理选择。Carlo Ginzburg’s microhistory writing adopts the style of modernist literature to ensure the truthfulness of historical narrative.He finds it impossible to write the truthful history of little people due to the limited historical data,but the self-dissections of modernist literature can maintain the truthfulness of historical narratives.This style embodies three characteristics in Ginzburg’s microhistory narrative:weakening the author’s narrative authority,adopting a multi-perspective“polyphonic”structure,and strengthening the readers’independent thinking.Ginzburg’s exploration demonstrates a reasonable way to overcome postmodernist skepticism and reveals the unidentified content in the historiographic concept of“the revival of narrative history.”Under the trend of information diversification,historical narratives in the style of modernist literature may become a reasonable choice for writing contemporary history.
