南宋政局變動頻繁,史料多元零散,影響研究議題的開展。為深化南宋政治史研究的議題與內涵,在重視典籍版本的選擇及深度解讀史料之外,更應該細察南宋政局快速變動的復雜因素,厘清時空背景與發展脈絡。從政治忌諱、人物評價、人際關系三個視角,將人事、時間、環境三項因素結合觀察,可以看到南宋政策具有強烈的現實性與變動性,政治人物在現實政治的沖擊下,采取了多樣的因應方式;除了群體性的對立與對抗之外,個人的角色與人際關系,也有著不可輕忽的分量。從中期能深切掌握政治發展的全貌,理解南宋包容政治背后的深一層意涵與人物評價變動的因素,體現南宋的政治特質。

The Southern Song Dynasty underwent frequent political changes,resulting in the scattering of much historical material,with a negative effect on research subjects.In going deeper into Southern Song political history and its connotations,the choice of editions of the classics and in-depth interpretation of historical materials aside,it is most important to closely examine the complex elements in the rapidly changing political situation of the Southern Song and to clarify its temporal and spatial background and the thread running through its development.In observing the three elements of human affairs,the times and the circumstances from the perspective of the three features of political taboos,character evaluation and human relationships,it can be seen that Southern Song policies were highly realistic and very changeable.Political figures responded in various ways to the impact of immediate politics.Apart from collective opposition and resistance,people’s roles and interrelationships also had an influence that cannot be neglected.We hope in this way to grasp the panorama of political development and understand the changes in character evaluation and the deeper meaning beneath the tolerant politics of the Southern Song,thus revealing the distinctive politics of this period.
