世系传递中的爵职继承:对西周微氏铜器铭文的系谱学分析

Nobility Inheritance in Genealogy Transmission——Genealogy Analysis into the Copper Ware Inscriptions of Western Zhou Dynasty

"文章系谱"是系谱学关注的世系文本样式之一,意为用文章而非文句对世代间各类继承事实进行的叙述。中国历史上最早的文章系谱包含在叙史性铜器铭文中,可称为文章系谱的铭文类型。微氏《墙盘》等制作于西周共王、夷王时代的铜器铭文,是典型的铭文型文章系谱;其在中国谱学史上的地位,是在一个大致明确的年代范围内,以文章系谱的形式,建构了一个他律性的爵职继承系列,而非一个自律性的家世世系系列。对微氏《墙盘》等反映爵职继承系列的文章系谱在谱学史上的地位,评价应恰如其分。

The article genealogy is one of the text styles concerned by Genealogy,meaning that it uses articles instead of sentences to narrate all kinds of events of inheritance. The earliest article genealogy in Chinese history was included in the inscriptions of the copper ware narrating the history. Qiang Pan of Wei Family was made in Western Zhou dynasty and was typical of this type. We should all be appropriate in giving evaluations to the position of article genealogy belonging to the nobility inheritance in genealogy history.
