西夏文相马、养马法《育骏方》考释

A Textural Research on Yujunfang,A Tangut Version of Judging and Breeding Horses

俄藏黑水城文献инв.№2554共收录五种西夏文文本,概有卜卦书四种,相马、养马方一种,其中第五种《育骏方》也包括"马色旋凶占法"。首次公布西夏文《育骏方》的录文,并参考《事林广记》《元亨疗马集》等记载给出译文。同时,通过与中原流传各种汉文本内容的对比和西夏文本中一些词语的使用线索,可以肯定西田龙雄关于该本是某汉文著作西夏译本的猜测,这个汉文底本应该是在中原传统的相马、养马方的基础上编写的。西夏文《育骏方》可为研究中原相马、医马经在河西地区的流传,以及西夏境内所流行的各种卜法与中原的关系提供参考。№2554号俄藏黑水城文献所收第三种文本《推定肚子雌雄法》在此一并予以考释。
