略论“礼是郑学”

唐孔颖达《礼记正义》称“礼是郑学”，究其原因，一因郑玄礼学著作甚多，特专精于礼学；二因自郑玄兼注《三礼》，始有所谓《三礼》之学；三因郑玄能将其礼学付诸实际运用，为朝廷制礼；四因郑玄能以礼律己，“非礼不动”。然最主要的原因，还在于自郑玄兼注《三礼》之后，后世之治礼学者皆以郑学为宗，而不可舍其书，自魏晋至隋唐皆然，故孔氏有“礼是郑学”之称。

A Brief Discussion On "the Ritual Doctrine was Zheng Xuan''''s Doctrine"

Abstract:The Book of Rites with Commentaries by Kong Ying-da in the Tang Dynasty said"the ritual doctrine was Zheng Xuan's doctrine", the reason was: First, Zheng Xuan created plentyworks on the ritual doctrine, was especially expert in the ritual doctrine; second, so-called the studyof Three Books of Rites appeared only after Zheng Xuan's simultaneously annotating Three Books ofRites; third, Zheng Xuan could put his thought of rites into practice to formulate the system of ceremonial forms for the imperial court; fourth, Zheng Xuan coud be strict with himself in the light ofdecorum, did "nothing that wasn't accord with decorum". But the most main reason lay in that afterZheng Xuan's Simulanteously annotating Three Books of Rites the later scholar studying the ritualdoctrine from the Wei and Jin Dynasties to the Sill and Tang Dynasties all believed in Zheng Xuan's Doctrine, and couldn' t abandon his works, so Kong Ying - da had the version of "the ritual doctrine was Zheng Xuan's doctrine".
