唐代墓志职官文化词语考辨

Textual Research on Official Cultural Words from Epitaphs in Tang Dynasty

"职官"是中国古代文化中非常重要的内容。中国古代的职官是纷繁复杂的,在严密的等级制度和严格的礼制制度下,不同职官的品级所持有的印绶、所乘坐的车饰以及服装、佩饰是不同的,故而产生出一大批职官文化词语。论文以出土的唐代墓志为文献资料,考释职官文化词语,对其词义进行辨析,可以为汉语词汇史、文化史研究提供新证据。

Officials were a very important part in ancient Chinese culture. There were complicated rituals for Officials under the rigorous hierarchy and strict ritual system. A multitude of Official cultural words were created according to their ranks, because Officials of different ranks had different seals and ribbons, adornments on their carriages as well as clothing and accessories. The paper, using Tang Dynasty unearthed epitaphs as literature materials, illustrates the Official cultural words from the epitaphs and discriminates their meanings. It can offer new evidences for the study of history of Chinese vocabulary and cultural history.
