摘要：

历史书写中道德与情感的关联是一项核心议题。情感史在近年兴起之后引起了较多重视，而战后日本民众史的兴起为此提供了典型案例。传统史学注重道德训诲，而兰克学派主张的客观叙事在二战后受到挑战。日本民众史学者色川大吉、安丸良夫和鹿野政直等人通过发掘底层民众的经历，揭示了愤怒、同情等情感与正义感等道德的交互作用。这一研究不仅改造了明治日本所开始的近代史学传统，还通过“通俗道德”等概念，展现了历史叙事的复杂性与社会价值观的深层联系。

Abstract:

The connection between morality and emotion in historical writing has long been a core issue. With the recent emergence of the history of emotions, this topic has garnered increased attention. The rise of “people’s history” (minshūshi) in postwar Japan provides a typical case for studying this issue. Traditional historiography focused on moral instruction, while the objective historical narrative advocated by the Rankean school faced challenges after World War II. Atrocities such as the Nazi genocide of Jews and the Nanjing Massacre committed by the Japanese army demonstrated that emotion and morality are difficult to separate. Japanese “people’s historians” like Irokawa Daikichi, Yasumaru Yoshio, and Kano Masanao revealed the interactions between emotions such as anger and compassion and moral values like a sense of justice by exploring the experiences of the lower-class people. This research not only transformed the modern historiography tradition that originated in Meiji Japan but also, through concepts like “popular morality”, demonstrated the complexity of historical narratives and their profound connection to social values.
