谱牒类书目的源流与分属演变

The Origin and the Attribution Evolution of Genealogical Bibliography

早在商代后期就已出现记录世系的图谱,但还不属于纸质的谱牒类文献。东汉以后,由于谱牒的政治功用渐趋强化,谱牒类书目迅速增加,逐渐由《汉书·艺文志》术数略下的一个子目变为史部目录下一个固定的二级类目。宋代以后,谱牒类书目的政治功用逐渐缺失,其在目录学中的地位明显下降,到清代最终被排除在史部目录之外。谱牒类书目在目录学著作中分属演变的历程,折射出不同历史背景下谱牒社会功用的变化。

The recorded genealogy came into being as early as the late Shang Dynasty,although it did not belong to the paper-based genealogical literature.After the Eastern Han Dynasty,as the political function of genealogy gradually intensified,the genealogical bibliography increased rapidly,from a sub-item under the technology and mathematics outline of Hanshu·Yiwenzhi(History of Han Dynasty·Record of Art and Culture)to a fixed secondary category in the History Catalogue.After the Song Dynasty,the political function of genealogical bibliography gradually disappeared,and its status also declined noticeably till it was eventually excluded from the historical catalogue in the Qing Dynasty.The attribution evolution process of the genealogical bibliography in the bibliography works reflects the change of social function of genealogy in different historical background.
