论帛书《二三子问》中的“精白”

On the word Jing Bai in Er-san-zi-wen copied on silk unearthed

本文讨论帛书《易传》第一篇《二三子问》的时代问题。依据传世文献材料和出土文献,并根据思想观念的发展规律,指出《二三子问》中出现的"精白"一词,已见于《冠子·度万》,进而分析在孔子的时代,有可能出现"精白"这样的概念以及出现押韵的占语,对于《二三子问》的年代作出了新的推测。认为此篇时代当较早,并没有受到黄老思想的影响,有可能就是孔门弟子录所闻于夫子,整理成篇。

This paper aims at discussing the completed time of the first chapter Er-san-zi-wen, Answer to the Questions Asked by Some Dissiples, in the Yi Zhuan copied on silk excavated. By both of the current and unearthed documents as well as the principle of the development of ideological concepts, this paper points out that the word Jing Bai, 精白, mentioned in Er-san-zi-wen had been mentioned in He-guan-zi, and concludes that the concepts like Jing Bai and divining verses with rhyme might have come into being in the times of Confucius, and thus making a new inference to the completed time of the chapter. The author holds that this chapter was completed earlier and not influenced by the thoughts of the school of the Yellow Emperor and Lao zi (prevailing in the middle and late Warring State Period). It might be complied according to what Confucius had uttered and what his disciples heard of.
