略述中国古代的《礼记》学

《礼记》49篇的初本，为西汉今文礼家戴圣所编纂。自西汉至东汉，《礼记》在流传过程中衍生出了许多的本子。东汉末年郑玄据诸本加以校勘，并为之作《注》，列之为《三礼》之一。三国魏晋南北朝至隋唐时期，除一度几为王学夺席，他皆惟郑学独尊，且唐于《三礼》独重《礼记》。宋元明时期，《礼记》学颇染宋学习气。清代号称经学复盛，然《礼记》学则未堪其称，诸经独《礼记》无新《疏》。

Outlining the Theory of Li-Ji(Book of Rites)in Ancient China

Dai Sheng, a scholar studying Li of current Chinese characters in Western Han Dynasty, compiled the original edition of Li_Ji of 49 pieces. In the course of circulation from Western Han Dynasty to Eastern Han Dynasty, many editions derived from it. In later Eastern Han Dynasty, Zheng Xuan collated them and produced a new edition for which he wrote a commentary, and made it one of the Three_Li. In the following dynasties from Three Kingdoms to Tang,the school of Zheng Xuan remained dominant all the time except that the school of Wang Su almost replaced it for a time. In Tang Dynasty, of Three_Li only Li_Ji was valued most. Throughout the Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties, the study of Li_Ji was influenced much by the school of Song. In Qing Dynasty, the study of classical works was said to have flourished again, but the study on Li_Ji was not the case since of all the classical works only Li_Ji had no new commentary.
