明代陕西朝邑、华县地震抗震思想研究

The Anti-seismic Thoughts Based on Chaoyi Earthquake and Huaxian Earthquake of Ming Dynasty

明代朝邑、华县两场地震后所留存的史料显示,明代对于地震的原理认识仍然存在政治用途分析与非政治用途分析两种完全不同的系统,前者常用于劝谏皇帝言行,后者见于社会上所流传对地震原理的解释。此外,明代能够认识到地震是由一方而起波及周边,并且可以将发震位置范围确定在省一级行政单位。两起地震,为后人抗震提供了很好的经验总结,并形成文献流传至今。

The remnant from earthquake in Chaoyi and Huaxian during Ming Dynasty demonstrated totally different systems of perception in seismic cause including analysis of political utility and natural utility. The former was used to interpose the politics. The latter was social hearsay. Whatever, people at that time have already know the earthquake has an epicenter. The two earthquakes scripted are constructive up to now. The experience they provide still facilitates the earthquake resistance.
