研究南诏的历史文化,可以有多种策略和路径,前人贡献已经不少,但争论也非常多。为什么对于同一文献的记载,后代的研究者往往众说纷纭?除了文献本身语焉不详导致的模糊性之外,我认为研究者在解读文献时所使用的理论和方法不同是根本的原因。本文将《蛮书》、《旧唐书》、《新唐书》、《资治通鉴》以及《南诏德化碑》、《南诏图传》等古代文献记录的南诏王号视为对音材料,利用民族语言材料来分析其语源和语义。采用这种研究方法是基于一个考虑:与文学性的联想、抒情之辞相比,语言分析具有更大程度的可验证性,可以为后来的有关研究提供一个相对坚实的基础。 Study Nanzhao history and culture, you can have a variety of strategies and pathways, contributions have been a lot of predecessors, but the debate is also very much. Why do researchers of later generations often have different opinions about the same document? Besides the fuzziness caused by the literature itself, I think the different theories and methods used by researchers in reading the literature are the fundamental reasons. This article will be “Man Book”, “Old Tang Book,” “New Tang Book,” “Mirror” and “Nanzhao Germany Monument”, “Nanzhao map biography” and other ancient literature records of Nanzhao king For the sound material, the use of national language materials to analyze its etymology and semantics. This method of research is based on the consideration that linguistic analysis is more verifiable than literary associations and lyrical expressions and can provide a relatively solid foundation for subsequent research.
