百年“龙学”如何开篇:从黄侃到范文澜

How Does a Century’s Study on Wenxin Diaolong Begin:From Huang Kan to Fan Wenlan

黄侃和范文澜在“龙学”上的贡献已有不少探讨,但着眼百年“龙学”史,他们二人到底有什么样的地位?还需要一个更为准确而宏观的把握,从而展示现代“龙学”如何开篇。黄侃对现代“龙学”大厦之奠基,人们往往瞩目著名的《文心雕龙札记》,这固然有其道理,但需要指出的是,《札记》一书对《文心雕龙》的诠释重在创作论部分,这对百年“龙学”产生了深刻影响。而另一个历史事实尤其值得重视,那就是黄侃有两位“龙学”高徒:范文澜和李曰刚。作为黄侃的“龙学”继承人,范文澜犹如现代“龙学”大厦的设计师,对“龙学”之传承与建构均起了关键作用。现代“龙学”的主要内容,诸如刘勰的生平、家世及其基本思想,《文心雕龙》的理论体系,《文心雕龙》文本的校注整理以及内容的阐释,都在范先生这里发端。

Huang Kan and Fan Wenlan’s contributions to the study on Wenxin Diaolong(also called“dragonology”)have been frequently discussed,but what is their status in the history of a century’s study on Wenxin Diaolong?It still needs a more precise yet general analysis to show how the modern study on Wenxin Diaolong begins.There are two historical facts about Huang Kan’s construction of the modern study on Wenxin Diaolong:He had two excellent students,Fan Wenlan and Li Yuegang;he left a masterwork—Notes on Wenxin Diaolong.This book makes an original interpretation of Wenxin Diaolong,thus opening a new chapter of the modern study on Wenxin Diaolong.Fan and Li held high the torch of“dragonology”,illuminating a century’s journey of modern study on Wenxin Diaolong.As a successor to Huang Kan’s study on Wenxin Diaolong,Fan Wenlan is the designer of modern study on Wenxin Diaolong and plays a key role in the inheritance and construction of“dragonology”.The main themes of modern“dragonology”,such as Liu Xie’s life,family and basic thoughts,the theoretical system of Wenxin Diaolong,and the collation and annotation of Wenxin Diaolong,can all be traced back to Fan Wenlan.
