摘　　要：近代西方学者王西里等人在撰写中国文学史著作时,采用东方学区域整体的比较方式和比较语文学研究方法考察中国文学,表现出“东方区域文学史”和“大文学”观的特征。他们站在“西方—东方”二分的立场和角度,从“西方文学”的整体立场上考察中国文学,自觉不自觉地表现出西方文化观念和价值判断标准。我们须突破“汉学”亦即国别研究的局限性,将其置于西方的东方学学科视域中,采用东方学所特有的比较研究、区域整体研究、“西方—东方”二分视域以及世界文学的总体研究的方法,方能获得对近代西方早期中国文学史著作全面的、深入的认识。In their early studies on the history of Chinese literature, modern Western scholars such as Wang Xili employed comparative approaches that encompassed the broader Oriental region and utilized philological methods to examine Chinese literature. This approach reflects distinctive characteristics of an“Eastern regional literary history” and a “grand literature” perspective. These scholars examined Chinese literature through the lens of a “West–East” dichotomy, often unconsciously expressing Western cultural concepts and value judgments. To gain a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of these early Western works on Chinese literary history, it is essential to move beyond the confines of Sinology, which often focuses on country-specific studies. This requires placing it within the perspective of Western Orientalism, and employing the comparative, regional and binary methodologies unique to Orientalist studies alongside a global perspective on world literature.
