The author's'Four rectifications'has clarified the meaning of Records in terms of name,meaning,reasoning and jurisprudence,but those who insist on the view of'records as documents'are still questioning:if records are'dang an',what are Archives(?)How to translate them when the two are juxtaposing?Some people even say that records are just documenting.Since it is an issue caused by English and French,following the history of English records and French Archives is the key to solving the problem,taking the important figures and events in the 800-year records and Archives of England and France as the main thread,exploring the origin,essence,content,and evolution of records and Archives,and defining the concepts from the perspective of history.
