法国大革命以来，法国大学的历史经历了几次断裂，最后一次断裂是在 1968 年，导致现有大学分裂成多个没有自己过去的实体。与此同时，高度集权的文化成为法国学术体系设计的指导原则，导致所有（甚至是次要的）创建自治机构文化的尝试消失。在此背景下，为什么大部分关于法国大学的史学都集中在学术学科上而很少提及大学作为机构就变得很清楚了。学者们首先将自己定位于他们的科学领域，而他们的机构隶属关系只扮演次要角色。本文旨在通过讨论法国大学制度的这些具体特征，阐明法国大学在渴望纪念自己的过去时所面临的问题。
The history of French universities is characterised by several ruptures since the French Revolu- tion, the last of them dating from 1968 and resulting in the breakup of existing universities into multiple entities without their own past. Simultaneously, a culture of intense centralization served as a guiding principle in the design of the French academic system, leading to the disappearance of all, indeed minor, attempts to create a culture of autonomous institutions. Against this background, it becomes clear why the bulk of the historiography on French universities has focused on the academic disciplines and rarely mentions universities as institutions. Scholars identified themselves first and foremost with their scientific field, with their institutional affiliation playing only a secondary role. By discussing these specific characteristics of the French university system, this article aims to elucidate the problems French universities are confronted with when eager to commemorate their own past.
