Westerners' reflection on history has been reflected in a relatively systematic way since ancient Greece. This tradition continued until the rise of historicism at the end of the 18th century. After that, Western historical understanding was able to break through the tradition and enter an era of more in-depth reflection and more systematic research. "Historical Understanding: From Modern to Postmodern" starts from the author's "self" standpoint, expresses the cognition of the core elements of historical understanding, criticizes the scientism and correspondence theory of truth in modern Western historical understanding, and then elaborates on the shock that postmodernism has brought to contemporary historiography and concepts, such as the criticism and reflection on time, change, historicity and other themes by Foucault, Derrida, Hayden White and others. The author shows that postmodernism introduces historical understanding into a more complex and pluralistic system, which will definitely prompt historians to be more self-aware, self-disciplined, and self-respecting, and to think historically about their research objects and even the research behavior itself.
