也谈金初建国及国号年号

On the Establishment and Title of Jin Dynasty and the Title of Emperor

金建国于何年?国号年号又为何?史书有不同的记载,金史研究中也有不同的见解。在《金史》与宋、辽、元人所著文献对比运用时,更应重视《金史》的史料价值。在没有确凿证据以前,《金史》所记金开国史,即金于1115年建国,国号金、年号收国,仍是值得采信的。

There is no common understanding on the issues of the exact date of establishment of Jin Dynasty and the tides of Jin ＆ emperor. There are different records in various histories and diverse viewpoints accordingly on the above issues. The author argues that the historical value of History of Jin Dynasty should be paid great attention to compared with the literatures compiled by the scholars of Song, Liao and Yuan Dynasties. The records that Jin Dynasty established in 1115, Jin is the title of the new state, the title of emperor is Shuoguo （收国） are worth believing before the more authentic evidence was discovered.
