佛坪厅两通碑刻与佛坪厅文庙

Two Stone Tablets about Foping Sub-prefecture and the Confucian Temple of Foping Sub-prefecture

文庙是古代州、县治所之重要组成部分,佛坪厅厅城文庙地面建筑现已荡然无存。本文通过佛坪厅现存的两通碑刻,究明了佛坪厅旧文庙及新文庙的位置与始建年代,并结合考古调查成果确定了新文庙的布局结构。与此同时,对碑刻所涉及的文昌宫、名宦、乡贤诸祠等重要建筑亦做了简要讨论。

The Confucian Temple is an important component of the seat of the prefectures and counties in ancient China. The architectures of the Confucian Temple in the seat of Foping Sub-prefecture have been completely demolished;only two stone tablets are still preserved. Through the examination to the texts of these two stone tablets, this paper made clear the locations and building dates of the old and new Confucian Temples of Foping Sub-prefecture, and recovered the layout of the new Confucian Temple with the reference of the archaeological investigations. Meanwhile, this paper also briefly discussed the issues about the important architectures mentioned in the texts of the stone tablets, such as the Wenchang Palace （Temple of the God of Literature） and the Memorials of the Famous Ofifcials and Local Worthies.
