魏晋南北朝时期的佐著作郎与著作佐郎考

On the Title of the Assistants of Editorial Directors in the Period of Wei Jin and the Northern and Southern Dynasties

《唐六典》《史通》诸书中关于晋人任职佐著作郎还是著作佐郎的记载多有矛盾之处。综合《唐六典》《通典》《史通》中的各种说法,并结合《宋书》《晋书》及唐代一些类书中相关史料的记载来看,著作佐郎这一称谓至迟在东晋初年已经出现,并逐渐被史家采用,在南朝时成为著作郎之佐官的唯一称谓。

Many contradictions exist in books like “Six Codes in Tang Dynasty” and “Shi Tong” on the title of the officials who assisted Editorial Directors to edit history. Taking into consideration the various opinions in “Six Codes in Tang Dynasty”, “Tong Dian”, and “Shi Tong”, and referring to “The Book of Song”, “The Book of Jin” and historical documents in Tang Dynasty, the author thinks that the title of Junior Editorial Director had appeared no later than Early Eastern Jin Dynasty. Since then it had been gradually adopted by historians. Until the Southern Dynasty, Junior Editorial Director became the only title of the officials who worked as assistants of Editorial Directors.
