清华简与西周史研究

The Tsinghua Bamboo Slips and the Study of Western Zhou History

经过学术界十多年的持续努力,清华简目前已出版10辑整理报告。其中所收入文献,绝大多数是失传两千多年的珍本秘籍。清华简中所发现的众多与西周史有关篇目,有助于加深对西周史相关文献的理解与认识,揭示西周史事真相,推动西周文学史、思想文化史和制度史研究。其中的诸多记载,不仅解决了西周史研究中许多争论已久的疑难问题,同时为西周史研究的进一步开展提供了崭新机遇。清华简的整理与研究工作已经深刻影响了西周史研究的面貌。利用清华简研究西周历史文化,已成为当前深化西周史研究的一条有效途径。

Over more than a decade of strenuous effort,ten series of reports have been published on the Tsinghua bamboo slips.The great majority of the documents therein are precious texts and secret works lost for over two thousand years.The many bamboo slip titles that relate to the history of the Western Zhou have helped to deepen our understanding and knowledge of these historical documents;they reveal the true face of historical events and promote the study of Western Zhou literary,intellectual,cultural and institutional history.Many of these records have not only solved long-debated questions in the study of Western Zhou history,but also provided new opportunities for further research.The work of collation and research on the Tsinghua bamboo slips has profoundly influenced the study of Western Zhou history;the bamboo slips have become an effective tool for studying Western Zhou history and culture.
