校勘学与孔子校勘古籍三原则

Proof-readology & Confucious’ Three Principles on Proof-read

校,就是考核、校对,勘就是删取,校勘是校雠的核心。中国历代对目录与校勘两门学问的界义争论较大。孔子是中国第一位为校勘工作创立了优良传统的人,他总结出校勘三大原则:言必有据,无征不信;崇尚平实,排斥虚妄;多闻阙疑,慎言其余。

Proof-read is a check means which is applied to get rid of errors and keep correct. The proof-read is a key to the work of check right or wrong. There has been a heated argument about the contents and proof-read definitions in old Chinese dynasties. Confucious was the first man who established the good tradition of proof-read. He summed up three principles in literacy proof-read, i.e. to remark should be grounded; to entrust should be on witness; to pick the truth and discard false; more questionnaire, be careful on other remarks.
