摘要：
媒介的本义是“居中”，具有调和、组织、转化、生成的作用，由此形成其双重含义：具体的媒介；共有的媒介性——调节或交转。各个媒介的物质特性不同，调节的方式及所带来的形态也有所区别。由此，在媒介与历史的关系中，不能仅仅将媒介作为历史研究的对象，更重要的是考察历史的视角。媒介的变迁展示出人类社会的历史演变，由于媒介是构成人类生存的基本要素，一种新媒介的诞生就生成一种新的社会关系和文化形态，因而媒介史也就成为人类史。

Abstract:
The original meaning of media is“centering”, which has the functions of reconciliation, organization, transformation and generation, forming its dual meaning: specific media; shared media-regulation or transfer. The material properties of each medium are different, and the adjustment methods and the forms they bring are also different. Therefore, in the relationship between media and history, media should not only be regarded as the object of historical research, but the perspective of observing history. The change of media shows the historical evolution of human society. Since the media is the basic element of human existence, the birth of a new media generates a new social relationship and cultural form, and thus the history of media becomes the history of mankind.
Key words:
media,
history,
centering,
adjustment
