中国瓷器外销与“海上瓷器之路”发展的历史轨迹

摘要

中国瓷器在唐代中期开始通过＂海上丝绸之路＂大量运销海外,在宋、元时代,随着中国瓷器生产和贸易的飞跃发展,＂海上丝绸之路＂也逐步拓展为航程更远、船舶更先进、影响更大的＂海上瓷器之路＂,直到明代郑和下西洋时期达到鼎盛状态。瓷器大量外销是中国航海和造船技术进步的原动力,其相互影响、相互促进的内在规律是值得我们深入研究的重要课题。%Chinese porcelain starts to be exported in bulk to other countries through "marine silk road" from Tang Dynasty.With rapid development of Chinese porcelain production and trade in Song and Yuan Dynasty,"marine silk road" developed gradually into more influential "marine porcelain road" on which there are more advanced ships with much longer range.Until Ming Dynasty when Zhen He stared sailing in Western Ocean,"marine porcelain road" reached its development peak.Chinese porcelain export is the motive power of Chinese sailing and shipbuilding technology,and their interaction and mutual promotion is an important subject to be studied.
