论西周易卦与《易经》

On Yi Hexagrams of Western Zhou Dynasty and the Book of Changes

中国易学史在经历了由伏羲时代到炎黄时代再到夏商时代的滥觞期之后，迨西周初期则呈现出甲骨易卦和金文易卦并蒂兴盛的璀璨局面；到了西周中后期，又出现了陶文易卦，特别是陶拍易卦的出现，说明《易经》六十四卦的卦序结构已从根本上解决。这一切充分说明：《易经》一书在经历了数千年的“怀胎”之后，到了西周中后期，正在履行它的“一朝分娩”之重任。

The history of Chinese Yi-ology originates from the time of Fu Xi to both the Yan and Huang ages and the Xia and Shang Dynasties.In early Western Zhou Dynasty,the Yi Hexagrams on oracle bones and bronzes both flourished.The Yi Hexagrams carved on potteries appeared in the middle and late periods of Western Zhou,the discovery of which solved the problem of the sixty-four hexagrams' sequence.We can conclude that I-Ching,or the Book of Changes,is now during the process of 'Delivery' after the 'ten-month pregnancy' of thousands of years.
