周公称王辨

Inquiry of Zhougong's Lording

周公是否称王,在封建时代曾是一个重大的政治问题。史家多有认为周公曾经称王者,果如此,史书记载的很多地方就不能自圆其说。要辨清这一问题,就需要考证康叔封及其儿子康伯髡是否被混淆了。据考证,传统上被认为是写给康叔的《康诰》,有可能是写给康叔的儿子康伯的,这是周公未及称王的有力证据。

Zhougong＇s lording or not is an important political issue in feudal society of China. Many historians suggest that Zhougong had been a king. If that was true, then there are many of controversies in the historical records themselves, To solve this issue, it seems to need of solving other important question weather Kangbo Mao who was Kangshu＇s son had been confused with Kangshu Feng. According to textual research, Kanggao that has been traditionally regarded as a letter written to Kangshu in fact was written to Kangshu＇s son Kangbo, which is a strong proof proving that Zhougong never lord.
