顾炎武与清初《春秋》经学

Gu Yanwu and Classic Studies of the Spring and Autumn in the Early Qing

清初《春秋》经学力求杜绝宋元以来《春秋》经解之中的空虚、穿凿,顾炎武提倡、鼓励广辑传注解经,《左传》因产生年代最古,以及详实的叙事,在众多传注中确立了它的学术优先地位。顾炎武将《左传》杜注带入研究视野,其方法影响及乾嘉汉学,但又明显带有清初经学的特点,而顾炎武对《左传》义理的质疑则承袭了历来学者对《左传》义理的不信任,带有普遍共通性。

The Classic Studies of the Spring and Autumn in the early Qing period witnessed a clear break from the abstract and speculating style of classic studies featuring the Song,Yuan and Ming dynasties. Gu Yanwu advocated a new style of classic study with through collection of previous exegeses. Zuozhuan,or Exegeses of Spring and Autumn by Zuo,had been put into a priority in the studies of Spring and Autumn because it was the oldest and the most concise narrations about the book. Gu＇s emphasis on Du Yu＇s Note on Zuozhuan greatly influenced the School of Han Learning in the Qianlong and Jiaqing periods. And his questioning on whether Zuozhuan precisely conveys Confucius＇s meanings echoed a rather common mistrust of Zuozhuan＇s many understandings of Spring and Autumnin a long scholarly history.
