抗战时期历史博物馆文物南迁始末

The Southward Move of Cultural Relics by History Museum in 1930s

近年来,20世纪30年代国民政府为保护文物所组织的文物南迁行动日益受到学界、文博界乃至文艺界的关注,针对这一事件的背景、过程及其影响,陆续发表了一批研究论文,出版了一些著作,然而,这些研究成果、回忆文章、文艺作品大都将研究、描绘的重点集中在故宫博物院、古物陈列所所组织的文物南迁上,而对于南迁重要组成部分的其他文化机构的研究则关注不够。历史博物馆从1933年2月至1935年6月,将16915件重要文物分六批南迁到南京及上海。本文拟结合当时的档案文件、往来信函以及新闻报道等史料,对历史博物馆文物南迁的背景、过程、文物播迁等问题进行全面梳理和系统探讨。

In 1930 s, the government of the Republic of China organized the southward move of cultural relics to protect the heritage from warfare, which has drawn extensive attention from the academic and cultural circle and a number of research papers and books have been published on the background, process and influence of this event in recent years. However, these studies mainly center on the actions of the Palace Museum and the Gallery of Antiquities while less attention has been paid to other cultural institutions once played an important part in the southward move. From February 1933 to June 1935, the 16,915 pieces of important cultural relics were moved to Nanjing and Shanghai six times by History Museum. Based on the historical materials such as the archives, news reports, and correspondence of the time, this paper provides an overall review and conducts systematical discussions on the background, process, and result of the southward move of cultural relics by History Museum.
