秦简《归藏》与汲冢书

Gui Cang Copied on the Bamboo Strips of the Qin Dynasty and Books Excavated at ji

历史上确曾存在殷易《归藏》,汲冢书面世之前汉晋学者已见到过《归藏》。亲身参加整理汲冢书的荀勖于《中经新簿》中另著录《归藏》13卷,可见当时确已另有与汲冢书之《易繇阴阳卦》不是一种书的《归藏》存在。时人郭璞注《穆天子传》诸书所称引的《归藏》,当即晋中经所藏之《归藏》。以为王家台秦简《归藏》即《易繇阴阳卦》或以为秦简《归藏》内容本事多出《穆天子传》的看法都是不符合实际的。

Historically, there had ever existed Gui Cang, which was regarded as Yi of the Shang Dynasty. And it had been read by many scholars of Han Dynasty and Jin Dynasty before the discovery of the books excavated at Ji. In Zhong Jing Xin Bu, Xun Xu also wrote 13 columns of Gui Gang, who took part in the compilation of the books excavated at Ji personally. Thus, it can be found that at that time there was another Gui Cang, which was different from Yi Yao Yin Yang Gua in the books excavated at Ji. And Gui Gang extracted by the boos in A Biography of the King Mu of Zhou written by the contemporary Guo Pu was the one stored in Jin Dynasty. There are two statements about it. One is that Gui Gang excavated at Wang-jia-tai copied on bamboo strips of Qin Dynasty was regarded as Yi Yao Yin Yang Gua in the books excavated at Ji. The other is that the most parts of contents of this Gui Gang originated from the real historical events in A Biography of the King Mu of Zhou. In my o-pinion, neither of them is practical.
