明代安徽刻书地理分布及成因探析--以《古今书刻》为例

Geographical Distribution and Cause Analysis of Engraving Industry in Anhui in the Ming Dynasty--Taking Gu Jin Shu Ke as an Example

安徽刻书业在明代进入了鼎盛时期,徽州成为全国重要的刻书中心。对周弘祖《古今书刻》中记载的明代安徽刻书数量及刻书地域进行统计,借助QGIS、CHGIS系统,从地域分析和密度分析两个方面来处理相关数据,能够大致描绘出明代安徽刻书的地理分布趋势,即各地分布不均,徽州独占鳌头,南部地区较北部地区发达,丘陵山区较江河平原发达。这样的刻书分布趋势受到了社会文化因素和地理物产因素的影响,两者的发达程度与刻书业的发展程度呈现出一定的正向关系,即社会文化越兴盛、原材料越丰富的地区,刻书业越发达。

The engraving industry in Anhui entered a prosperous period and Huizhou became an im‐portant engraving center of the country in the Ming Dynasty.Based on the statistics of the number and the regions of engraving books in Anhui in the Ming Dynasty recorded in Zhou Hongzu’s Gu Jin Shu Ke and with the help of QGIS and CHGIS systems,the geographical distribution trend of engraving books in Anhui in the Ming Dynasty can be roughly described by processing the relevant data from the two aspects of region and density analysis.The result shows the distribution was uneven with Huizhou ranking the first;the distribution in the southern region was more developed than that in the northern region;the distribution in the hills and mountains was more developed than that in the river plains.This distribution trend of engraving books was affected by social and cultural factors and geographical factors.The degree of the development of the two showed a certain positive relationship with the de‐gree of development of the engraving industry,that is,the more prosperous the social culture and the more abundant the raw materials are,the more developed the engraving industry is.
