2013 年 3 月，一群德国、尼泊尔和瑞士历史学家、印度学家和建筑历史学家聚集在尼泊尔举办研讨会，旨在开发一种新的方法来理解南亚史学，特别是十九世纪的尼泊尔编年史。结果就是目前合作撰写的文章。有人认为，过去对南亚史学的分析一直专注于基于对历史的理解的论证，强调事实和事件。然而，跨文化和多学科的方法将克服事实与虚构、历史与神话、证据与真相的常见二分法。认识到南亚史学的特殊性，本文提出了一种弥合过去学术使用中的不对称和纠缠的方法，同时也为西方史学开辟了新的视角。通过分析十九世纪编年史的宗教、空间、文学和历史以及当代或与背景相关的方面，并使用“田野调查”作为研究史学的方法论工具，建议将时间的框架以及序列和历史时期的制作理解为一个开放的过程，从而导致时间空间的持续和共时的创造。
In March 2013, a group of German, Nepalese, and Swiss historians, Indologists, and an architectural historian gathered for a workshop in Nepal to develop a new approach to the understanding of South Asian historiography, especially the Nepalese chronicles from the nineteenth century. The outcome is the present collaboratively written article. It is argued that, in the past, the analysis of South Asian historiography has been preoccupied by arguments based on an understanding of history that highlights facts and events. A transcultural and multidisciplinary approach, however, would overcome the common dichotomies of factuality and fictionality, history and myth, or evidence and truth. Recognizing the specificity of South Asian historiography, the article develops an approach to bridge asymmetries and entanglements in the academic use of the past in a way that also opens up a new perspective on Western historiography. By analyzing the religious, spatial, literary, and historical, and contemporary or context‐related aspects of a nineteenth‐century chronicle and by using “fieldwork” as a methodological tool for studying historiography, it is proposed to understand the framing of time and the making of sequences and historical periods as an open process that results in the constant and synchronic creation of chronological spaces.
