政治需要、思想立场与史料文本--从两汉时期对汉文帝的两种认识谈起

Political Needs,Ideological Stand and Historical Text Based on the Two Views about Emperor Wen in Han Dynasty

历史上,汉文帝常被视为一位宽厚仁慈、勤俭节约的君主,其统治时期也常常被视作"治世"。对《史记》《汉书》《风俗通义》等书中的部分相关材料对读可以发现,对于汉文帝及其统治时期的评价似乎分为了赞颂与质疑两派。通过文本细读,可以进一步认识到这两派意见的形成更多受到时代政治环境需要和作者思想立场倾向的影响。

In ancient Chinese history,Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty was often regarded as a generous,benevolent and thrifty monarch.The period of his rule is often regarded as the“Golden Age”.However,through the comparison of some passages in Historical Records,Hanshu and Fengsu Tongyi,we can find that the attitude towards Emperor Wen and his rule seems to be divided into two groups:praise and doubt.Through further close reading of the text,we can realize that the formation of these two opinions is more influenced by the needs of political environment and the author’s ideological tendency.
