The Study of the Formation of Wang Yi's 'Chuci Zhangju'.

摘要

Chuci Zhangju was compiled by Wang Yi (ca.90--ca.158) in the Eastern Han Dynasty(25--220) as an agglomeration of Chuci studies since Qin and Han Dynasties. Chuci Zhangju gathered QuYuan (ca.343--ca.277BC) and other authors' work since the Warring States period and its annotation style---Zhangjuti has been receiving high praise.;On the modern Chuci research, Chuci Zhangju is generally viewed as a mere ancillary annotation, while compared to canonical Chuci. As a result, there is no specialized work focus on Chuci Zhangju. Only scattered academic works are found, and their core concerns are doctrine of canonical texts and literary commentaries, while explanations of words and textual criticism were included sometimes. As a lack of comprehensive analysis of Chuci Zhanju is observed, my following research is carried out in four parts, including textual, annotation, the order of arrangement and interpretation analysis.;This thesis is divided into seven chapters. Chapter One is the introduction, a brief review of Wang Yi's life story and compositions, probing into the motives of Wang Yi's Chuci Zhangju. Chapter Two covers the formation process from the text Chuci to Chuci Zhangju, centering on the inherited relation between two texts. Chapter Three discusses the order of arrangement of Chuci Zhangju, suggesting that the order is related to Chuci Shiwen so as to analyze the structural system of canonical texts and its commentaries. Chapter Four centers on Wang Yi's commentaries, and further clarifies how Wang Yi has responded to predecessors' debate on QuYuan during Han Dynasty period, in order to construct and reinforce the authority for his interpretation. Chapter Five focuses on the rhymed annotation, pointing out the correlation between it and its features, forms, times, and predecessors. Chapter Six analyses the disputes over the issue Yi-yun and Huo-yue, suggesting that the existing text has been amended by people of former times, and has little relation with Wang Yi indeed. Chapter Seven is the conclusion, summarizing the key points and the major findings of the thesis.
