郭店楚简《性自命出》与《乐记》

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN "THE CHRONICLE OF MUSIC"AND"HUMAN NATURE FROM HUMAN BEINGL"IN THE BAMBOO BOOKS DURING THE CHU DYNASTY IN GUODIAN

郭店楚简中的《性自命出》,是一组论乐的文字。它以性、心、情、道相互关系作为立论的出发点,谈了音乐与人的关系即音乐的社会作用问题,还涉及了当时的几部音乐作品和俗乐问题,是一组记述音乐理论的简书。郭店楚简《性自命出》与今传《乐记》有许多联系,但它不是《乐记》赖以发展的基础,更不是其原始版本。简书不仅提供了一份先秦《乐》经的重要线索与实证,且为解决争论之中的《乐记》作者和产生年代,提供了一份非常有力的依据。

'Human Nature From Human Being' on the bamboo books during the Chu Dynasty in Guodion is a series of articles on music,which regards nature, mind,sentiment and doctrine as a starting point,gives a detailed explanation of the mutual relation between music and human beings--the social role of music.Mean- while,it contains a series of articles on the theory of mu- sic.Although 'Human Nature From Human Beings' con- nects to today' s 'The Chronicle of Music' in aspects from different quarters,it is neither the base depended on to develop it nor its original edition.The bamboos have provided not merely lots of important leacls and pos- itive knowledge of 'Music' Scripture before the Qin Dy- nasty,but also a convincing proof to settle the dispute with by whom and when 'The Chronicle of Music' was written.
