《厚父》简的历史价值

Historic Value of the Bamboo Slip Houfu

《厚父》简记述伊尹训导商王太甲总结并记取夏朝兴亡的历史教训。填补了文献记载的一些重要空缺,证实了咎繇(皋陶)思想是夏王朝治国的指导思想,关于天人合一、民本主义、以德治国等理念在夏商得到了传承,形成传统。它突出地记述古代政治家的警戒:享乐主义违背以德治国,可以亡国。

The bamboo slip Houfurecorded the instruction that Yi Yi gave to king of Shang Dynasty Tai Jia and the summary of the historical lessons from the rise and fall of the Xia Dynasty.It fills the gap in the literature,and proves that Jiu You（Gao Yao）Thoughts were the guidance governing the Xia Dynasty,in which people can interpret that the ideas of harmony between man and nature,democratism and governing the country with law and moral were inherited and came into tradition.The alertness for the ancient politicians：hedonism goes against governing the country with law and moral,which is sure to let a state perish,is highlighted in Houfu.
