何为汉法:“以魏充汉”与晚明汉隶认知中的缺失

Style of Han Official Script: On the Insufficiency in the Understanding of the Han Official Script in the Late Ming Dynasty

17世纪的汉碑热潮与隶书勃兴历来被视为书法史上的重要现象。在此过程中,一些晚明书家在"倡明汉隶"的同时,对吴门中人的隶书观念展开了批判,指出其存在"以魏充汉"的行为,这种看法在当代学界仍被沿用。事实上,在晚明诸家的语言逻辑中,"汉"与"魏"并非指代时间,而是指代某一类碑刻风格。"以魏充汉"的观点仅是时人在特定时代中,依据有限的见闻而产生的一种视觉感受,实则是将汉隶的整体面貌单一化与片面化,割裂了汉魏时期的碑刻书法史。

The tide of Han tablet inscriptions and official script in the 17 th century is regarded as an important phenomenon in the history of Chinese calligraphy. During that course, some late Ming calligraphers criticized the concept of official script among Suzhou calligraphers and accused them of mistaking the Wei tablet inscriptions for the Han counterparts. This opinion is still popular in today＇s research. However, the current author points out that ＂Wei＂ and ＂Han＂ in the context of Late Ming calligraphy did not refer to the date of tablet inscriptions but to their style. The criticism that the Wei tablet inscriptions were mistaken for the Han＇s inappropriately split the calligraphy of the Wei and Han period and was only out of a partial viewpoint.
