【摘要】： 在欧洲近代早期所发生的“军事革命”，乃是具有世界性意义的重大事件，它的成果，和文艺复兴、工业革命、民族国家的诞生等等事件结合在一起，最终塑造了今日的地球。目前，对“军事革命”时期历史的多方面研究，在西方的主流学界正是热火朝天，百花齐放。笔者认为，若能结合当时的背景，对近代战争早期的变革过程作一个整体梳理，想必能极大地有助于我们理清历史前进的因果关系和内在逻辑——尤其是考虑到当今国内对这方面的著述还相对薄弱、文艺复兴整体研究的构架尚未填充完善的情况下。据此，，本文首先从近代早期欧洲所发生的若干战争的表征入手，继而探讨形成这些表征的原因，以求回答二个问题：第一，为什么近代早期欧洲的战争相对于后世的战争处于静止状态；第二，为什么人们认为这种相对的静止状态其实孕育了重大的革命。通过这两大问题的发掘与探讨，当能初步揭示出“军事革命”的重要意义。这不仅在于机械上的创造与应用，更关键的是，它通过几代人的时间，塑造了欧洲人的新思维，使他们能够适应和利用日后工业革命时代大变革的成果，这样一来，“军事革命”实际上为欧洲国家的大扩张缓慢而坚实地储备了条件。值得注意的是，本文在写作上立足于近代早期的社会现状，通过对形成中的国家与战争的联系和战争本身的元素等几个方面进行阐述，从而勾勒发展趋势，并不将着眼点放在具体的战争或著名人物上面——这是运用了国外“新军事史”的典型写作方法。在今日的国际学界，对“新军事史”写作方法的推崇与探索已蔚然成风，而“新军事史”的著作却还基本没有引进国内或作系统性的介绍与评价，于是笔者企图通过方法上的创新，在近代早期欧洲社会史和军事史的研究上为后来者作一些铺垫工作。
[Abstract]:The "military revolution" that took place in the early modern Europe was a major event of worldwide significance. Its achievements combined with the events of the Renaissance, the industrial revolution, the birth of the nation-state, and so on, finally shaped the earth today. At present, many aspects of the history of the military Revolution are in the mainstream of the West. The author believes that if we can combine the background of that time, we can make a whole combing of the reform process of the early modern war. It must be of great help to us to clarify the causality and internal logic of historical advance, especially in view of the fact that the whole research framework of the Renaissance is still relatively weak, and the framework of the overall study of the Renaissance is not yet complete. Accordingly, this paper begins with the characterization of some wars that took place in early modern Europe, and then discusses the reasons for the formation of these characterizations in order to answer two questions: first, Why the war in early modern Europe is at a standstill relative to that of later generations; second, why people think that this relative stillness actually breeds a major revolution. Through the exploration and discussion of these two problems, the significance of "military revolution" can be preliminarily revealed. It is not just the creation and application of machinery, but, crucially, it has shaped the new thinking of Europeans over generations, enabling them to adapt and take advantage of the great changes of the industrial revolution that followed. The military revolution is in effect a condition for the slow and solid build-up of European countries. It is worth noting that this paper is based on the social situation in the early modern times, through the formation of the state and the war and the elements of the war itself, and other aspects of the elaboration of the development trend, Rather than focusing on specific wars or famous figures, this is a typical way of writing a new military history abroad. In today's international academic circles, the promotion and exploration of the writing methods of "New military History" have become popular, while the works of "New military History" have not been introduced into China or systematically introduced and evaluated. Therefore, the author attempts to pave the way for the latecomers in the study of the social history and military history of Europe in the early modern times through the innovation of methods.
