《史记·儒林列传》与《汉书·艺文志》的学术价值及其互补性

The Academic Value and Complementarity of Shih Chi and Biographies of Confucian Scholars and On the classification of Han Shu

司马谈早就在《论六家要旨》中对先秦的学术流派做过总结,司马迁在《史记·儒林列传》中对先秦和西汉前期的学术发展做了一个大致的梳理,其中多论今文经学,然亦及于古文经学,虽说不上全面,但有开创之功。后汉班固承司马之学,其《汉书·艺文志》分门别类,条理井然,于各家各派典籍记载分明,有辨章学术、考镜源流之功,以补《史记·儒林列传》之粗疏。
