《史记》载述伯鲧治水史迹的考察

A Study of the Flood Control of Bogun in Historical Records

司马迁撰写《史记》取材严谨考证精细,采百家之长成一家之言,尤其对于距今4000年前中国境内大洪水的记载,在古代史籍中最为系统。通过对鲧禹父子先后22年艰苦卓绝的治水表述,彰显出中华民族征服大自然的壮丽诗卷。40年来经过多学科的研究,业已确定大洪水的真实存在。作为当年统领治水的佼佼者,我们在颂扬大禹贡献的同时,更应该表彰先驱伯鲧治水的历史业绩。故此,以《史记》为切入点,结合考古发现和地表遗存,探讨伯鲧治水与齐家文化等方方面面的问题。

Sima Qian’s masterpiece,Historical Records is based on rigorous and meticulous research,absorbs the best of the previous scholars and becomes his own style.Especially for the records of the great flood in China 4000 years ago,it is the most systematic one.It reveals the magnificent poetic volume of the Chinese nation’s conquest of nature by describing how extraordinarily hard Gun and his son Yu controlled the flood for 22 years.After 40 years of multi-disciplinary research,it has been confirmed that the legend truly existed.As the leader of flood controller at that time,we should not only praise the contribution of Dayu,but the historical achievements of the forerunner Bogun as well.Therefore,this paper researches Historical Records,combining with archaeological discoveries and some remains,to explore the issues in all aspects related to the flood control and domestic governance culture.
