论唐代闽越遗风与闽人的海商传统

A Discussion on Minyue Customs and Traditional Fujianese Maritime Commerce

海外学术界多有人认为:中国的海洋文化是从海外传入的,主要来自中世纪的阿拉伯文化。本文认为,自汉晋以来,闽越人就形成了自己的海洋文化,并在唐代发展为以海洋商业为核心的海洋文化。从闽越遗风的传播到海洋商业的发展,福建海商逐渐发展起来,传播和发展了中国的海洋文化。

In the overseas academia, it is a common view that Chinese marine culture was introduced from overseas,mainly from Medieval Arabic culture. This paper argues that, since the Han and Jin Dynasties, Fujian people had formed their own marine culture, which, in the Tang Dynasty, developed marine business as its core. From the spreading of Minyue Custom to the development of marine commerce rose the Fujianese marine merchants, enhancing the dissemination and development of Chinese marine culture.
