唐代武氏世系史料源流关系辨析

Analysis of the original relationship of the historical data of the Wu's lineage in Tang Dynasty

唐代武氏家族世系主要见于《元和姓纂》《新唐书·宰相世系表》与《古今姓氏书辩证》,其记载有同有异。岑仲勉先生以为《新唐书·宰相世系表》的主要史源为《元和姓纂》,但研读武华以前世系,有充分理据可证其间并没有直接的渊源关系,而当各有史料来源,其记载可互为补充。《古今姓氏书辩证》则抄撮《元和姓纂》与《新唐书·宰相世系表》而成,且以前者为其主要的史料来源。

Wu’s lineage in Tang Dynasty was recorded in three books:Compilation of Surnames in Yuan-he Age, Table ofPrime Ministers’ Lineage of New Book of Tang Dynasty, and Discrimination of Ancient and Modern Surnames. The records of these three books are different from each other though with similarities. Mr. Cen Zhongmian believes that the record ofTable ofPrime Ministers’Lineage of New Book of Tang Dynasty is mainly fromCompilation of Surnames in Yuan-he Age. However, we insist that there is no direct original relationship between the record of Wu’s lineage of these two books. They both have respective sources of historical facts, which complement each other. As forDiscrimination of Ancient and Modern Surnames, its record is copied fromCompilation of Surnames in Yuan-he Age andTable of Prime Ministers’ Lineage of New Book of Tang Dynasty, especially from the former.
