《公莫舞》古辞研究的历史回顾与前瞻

《公莫舞》是迄今仅存的两篇诗、乐、舞并录的汉代作品之一 ,东晋后已不可通读。十几个世纪以来关于《公莫舞》的研究一直未断。 2 0世纪前的研究主要围绕作品来源、难解原因等外围问题进行 ;2 0世纪方开始对原文文本进行解读 ,现已初步揭示了其本辞真貌。笔者认为 ,未来的研究需要从西汉社会大背景、地上文献与地下文物结合、跨学科横向联合、改进学风诸方面做出努力

The Study of Gong Mo Dance:Its Past and Future

Gong Mo Dance , one of the two existent pieces of writings of the Han Dynasty (206BC-220AD) that recorded poem, music and dancing of a performance, became unintelligible after the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420). Since then the study of it has continued down to the present. Before the 20th century, the study was centered largely on the source of the writing or the cause of its unintelligibility. In the 20th century, students began to decipher it, and some of its inner meaning has been brought to light. The present writer believes that they should direct their efforts to the study of the social background of the Western Han Dynasty (206BC-25AD), and of both documents above ground and cultural relics unearthed. They should also foster interdisciplinary cooperation and improve their style of study.
