湖北荆州王家嘴M798出土战国楚简《孔子曰》概述

Kongzi Yue on Bamboo Slips of the Chu State Unearthed from Tomb M798 at Wangjiazui in Jingzhou of Hubei

湖北荆州王家嘴798号楚墓出土的竹简中,有一部分竹简的主题内容及文体与《论语》极为相似,整理小组暂将其拟题为《孔子曰》。本文对其形制与内容进行了概述,并举简文10例,与《论语》《孟子》《礼记》《左传》等传世古籍中的相关文字进行了对读,由此得出,王家嘴楚简《孔子曰》的重要价值,在于对《论语》成书过程的再思考。

Some of the bamboo slips unearthed from tomb M798 of Chu at the Wangjiazui site in Jingzhou,contain texts that are similar to Lun Yu in theme and genre.Researchers,while cataloging and interpreting the bamboo slips,referred to these bamboo slips Kongzi Yue(the Analects of Confucius).The present paper introduces the form and content of Kongzi Yue by ten examples;it also cross-reads with relevant texts in ancient classics such as Lun Yu,Meng Zi,Li Ji,and Zuo Zhuan.We propose that Kongzi Yue unearthed from the Wangjiazui site is important for shedding new insights into the writing ofLunYu.
