Abstract
Abstract While many aspects of Shi ji authorship are either unknown or speculative, the source texts of Shi ji and Sima Qian's use of them are viable yet underexplored paths to a deeper understanding of this monumental work. From the 1920s to the present, seven scholars from China, Japan, and Taiwan have attempted to ascertain the extent of Sima Qian's textual perusals and adaptations by compiling bibliographies of Shi ji source texts. This article compiles some of their results for comparison and analysis. From this, principles are highlighted for generating a more comprehensive methodology. 提要 有關《史記》作者的各個層面,目前仍有許多無法澄清之處,儘管如此,《史記》的文獻來源與司馬遷如何採用這些文獻二事尚有可探討之餘地。自 1920 年代至今,前後有七位來自中、日、臺的學者分別列出司馬遷編纂《史記》所參見、引用的書單。本文彙集他們的一些成果來加以分析、比較,目的是彰顯一些基本原則可用以編纂更全面的書目,進而對這本傑作有更深入的瞭解。
Abstract While many aspects of Shi ji authorship are either unknown or speculative, the source texts of Shi ji and Sima Qian's use of them are viable yet underexplored paths to a deeper understanding of this monumental work. From the 1920s to the present, seven scholars from China, Japan, and Taiwan have attempted to ascertain the extent of Sima Qian's textual perusals and adaptations by compiling bibliographies of Shi ji source texts. This article compiles some of their results for comparison and analysis. From this, principles are highlighted for generating a more comprehensive methodology. 提要 有关《史记》作者的各个层面,目前仍有许多无法澄清之处,尽管如此,《史记》的文献来源与司马迁如何采用这些文献二事尚有可探讨之余地。自 1920 年代至今,前后有七位来自中、日、台的学者分别列出司马迁编纂《史记》所参见、引用的书单。本文汇集他们的一些成果来加以分析、比较,目的是彰显一些基本原则可用以编纂更全面的书目,进而对这本杰作有更深入的了解。
