舞动的河流:皖南青弋江历史源流考

A Waved River:On the History of Qingyijiang River in the South of Anhui Province

由于皖南青弋江流域广阔、支流众多、地形复杂,在不同的历史时期人们对其源流的认识很不统一,对青弋江各段也各有地方称呼。从纷繁复杂的地方称谓到统称青弋江,从源流不清、以邻为壑到渐次明晰、兼及邻境,主要是现代地理学兴起和水利现代化的结果。此外,古代典籍中所提及的已经消失的"中江"和"南江"与青弋江的关系,也是清代皖南地方文献关心的话题。考察这一问题,可以为我们理解青弋江流域河道和环境的历史变迁提供启发。

Qingyijiang River in the south of Anhui province has many tributaries and flows in big region and varied topography.In different historical periods,the knowledge about the source and course of Qingyijiang River was not the same,and every part of the river had its own regional name. The development from various regional names to a united name Qingyijiang River,was the result of emergence of modern geography and water conservancy. Furthermore,the relation between Qingyijiang River and Zhongjiang or Nanjiang River,which had disappeared while was only mentioned in ancient books and records,was an important issue in South Anhui's local documents in the Qing dynasty. Therefore the study of its history can provide some inspiration for our understanding of the historical evolvement in Qingyijiang River valley watercourse and environment.
