“疏附”、“先后”、“奔奏”、“御侮”新释

New Explanation of Shu Fu,Xian Hou,Ben Zou and Yu Wu

《诗经·大雅·绵》末章云:"予曰有疏附,予曰有先后。予曰有奔奏,予曰有御侮。"诗中的"疏附"、"先后"、"奔奏"、"御侮"4名,指文王之臣,都是反义连用的形式。"疏附"指内朝官和外朝官,"先后"指左右辅弼重臣,"奔奏"指本国使臣与别国来使,"御侮"指武臣,是一个由周而及于方国、由行政到外交到戎事的序列。诗中连用4句,是以铺陈各类贤才的形式表明周邦在文王治下已经具备了代商而有天下的条件。

The paper gives a detailed explanation of ShuFu,XianHou,BenZou,andYuWu in the last chapter of the poem Mian in The Book of Songs,and points out that they constitute a sequence from Zhou to its neighboring tribes,the interior to diplomacy,and to military affairs.The continuous use of these four names indicates that Zhou had pocessed enough strength to overthrow the Shang Dynasty.
