《蹴鞠》二十五篇在后世文献中的分类及存佚考证

On the Classification and Research of Twenty-five Articles of Cuju in Subsequent Literature

蹴鞠运动渊源流长,在汉代十分兴盛。《史记·卫将军骠骑列传》载:"而骠骑尚穿或塌鞠",可见冠军侯霍去病在外作战时,仍能就地进行蹴鞠运动。上至天子下至平民都热衷于此。因此《蹴鞠》二十五篇才能借此产生,从而成为军事训练项目的教科书。

Cuju is an ancient sport. In Han Dynasty, it is very prosperous. Historical Records said that hussars play Cuju, that is, Huo Qubing played Cuju when fight outside. The game of Cuju became popular in all levels of society. So we get the Twenty-five Articles of Cuju now. It also is a military textbook. But, we have no chance to see its former glory.
