帛书《缪和》《昭力》中“子”为孔子考

The “Master” in Miaohe and Zhaoli copied on silk unearthed refers to Confucius

马王堆帛书《缪和》《昭力》是孔子易说,其中的“子”并非后世之经师,更非黄老派学者,而是孔子,这可以从诸多方面得到论证。这两篇帛书因此成为研究孔子易学、《易》教思想的重要资料。

Miuhe and Zhaoli on silk excavated at Mawangdui reveal Confucius’ commentaries on Yi. In the two chapters, the “Master” neither refers to a later-generation master of the Confucian Classics, nor a scholar of the Huang-lao (Yellow Emperor & Lao zi) Sect of the Daoist School, but Confucius. Enough testimony can support this point of view. Therefore, these documents turn out to be important materials for us to study Confucius’ Yi-ology and his thought of edification by Yi.
