顾炎武《金石文字记》小学成就考论

Research on the Textual Criticism Achievement of JinShiWenZiJi Written by Gu Yanwu

顾炎武身当明清鼎革之际,标举经世致用之实学,其金石学著作《金石文字记》博赡通贯,在音韵学、文字学、训诂学三个方面都取得了很高成就,体现了其以小学明经通史的学术路径。《金石文字记》一书的音韵学成就主要体现在正韵书之误,确定字音,利用音韵学知识考证石刻文字变化过程;其文字学成就主要体现在正字之误,利用文字学考察文字变化;训诂学成就则主要体现在以义训为基础,着重考察词义源流及词义分化。

Gu Yanwu, a pedantic soul from somewhere between Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty, advocated a useful, particular research by specializing in phonology philology and scholium in his works Jin Shi Wen Zi Ji. This paper deals with Gu＇ s academic accomplishment in the practical application of classical Chinese in these three fields, which respectively refers to Gu＇ s contribution in critical interpretation of ancient texts, in precise identification of word sounds, and in overall observations of character evolutions.
