山海经图:寻找《山海经》的另一半

Pictures in the Classic of Mountains and seas: Look for Anot her Part of the Book

《山海经》成书至今近两千年来，呈现给世人的只是其面目的一半，即文字部分，而另一半──山海经图，人们则知之甚少。《山海经》是我国第一部有图有文的经典，尽管原始古图、六朝张僧繇、宋代舒雅的《山海经图》均已佚失，但以图叙事的古老传统仍保留在明清之际绘制与流传的《山海经图》中。本文在对历代古本《山海经图》搜集、比较的基础上，追索三类《山海经图》的来龙去脉，剖析明清两代《山海经》图本的特色与文化意蕴，探讨《山海经》据图为文的叙事风格。

What people have been known about the Classic of Mountains and seas since its appearance nearly two thousand years is just a half of it, i.e. its written part. As to another half, i.e. its drawn part, people have known much less. The book is in China the first one with both characters and pictures. Despite the loss of original pictures, and the two same-named books, 'Pictures of Classic of Mountains and Seas', writen separately by Zhang Sengyao（张僧繇）in the Six Dynasties and Shu Ya（舒雅）in the Song Dynasty, the old tradition to narrate with pictures was kept in the later same-named book drawn and circulated between the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. In this essay the author investigates, based on collection and comparison of the old books, the origin and development of three editions of them, analyses the characteristics and cultural significance of the picture books drawn in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and approaches their narrative style to relate with pictures.
