摘要
文章通过全面考察西周春秋金文和《诗经?颂》的"是",采用统计、替换、对比等方法,通过考察其指代对象,发现原初"是"与其他指代词不同,它是一个"是"指代词,除具有指代性以外,还含有"是非"之"是"义。表现为专门指代神灵、祖先、尊贵者等、即"是者",不指代卑贱丑恶者、即"非者";而"兹""之""此""斯"都可指代非者。原初"是"不能被"兹""之""此""斯"所替换,反之亦然。
This paper fully examines shi(是) in early western Zhou bronze inscriptions and Hymns in The Book of Songs,and probes into its indicated ones by using methods of statistics,substitution and comparison.It concludes that Chinese primary shi(是),different from other pronouns,is a pronoun indicating the rightness.Besides indicating,shi(是) also means right in the idea of rights and wrongs.shi(是) is specially employed for gods,ancestors and honored ones,indicating rightness,not wrongness.But zi(兹),zhi(之),ci(此) and si(斯) can indicate wrongness.Therefore the pronoun shi(是) cannot be replaced by zi(兹),zhi(之),ci(此) and si(斯),and vice versa.
