《<营造法式>解读》述评

A Book Review of Interpretation about Ying Zao Fa Shi

对于《营造法式》的解读和研究一直是中国建筑史学研究密切关注的热点和亮点,相关成果层出不穷。《<营造法式>解读》是重要的《营造法式》综合研究成果,该书是在潘谷西先生"营造法式初探"系列文章奠定的学术基础上,在"调整下建构有自己的体例"的全面解读。区别于梁思成先生将《营造法式》作为"设计手册加上建筑规范"的看法、陈明达先生认为《营造法式》"是一部忠实记录当时建筑技术的著作,必然包含着十一世纪时劳动人民在建筑上的创造、革新和设计、施工的经验"的观点,《<营造法式>解读》认为《营造法式》的性质为"一种建筑工程预算定额",指出《营造法式》以高档化的代表性的官式建筑为主规定用材与用功制度及变造制度、服务于建筑工程而不是建筑设计、书中内容有前后不一甚至错讹脱漏等缺憾。进一步以大木作模数制研究和建筑装修装饰研究为例,从学术史的视角考察,《<营造法式>解读》体现了对先前研究成果的争鸣与致敬、对后续研究的启迪。
