董其昌《山水》册与《董范合参图》轴辨伪

上海博物馆藏董其昌《山水》册(共十开),为天启四年(1624)元旦所作,实并非董氏真迹。据考,该年四月董其昌才抵京。同时,该册对题均节录自董氏及明清书画著录著作与晚清文学笔记中,其第二开对题,与故宫博物院藏董氏癸酉(1633)夏五所作《董范合参图》轴题跋相同。再考《山水》册笔法,嫩弱飘浮,墨色平淡,与典型的董其昌风格相差甚远,更无其生拙秀逸之气;而《董范合参图》轴,用笔亦尖劲细碎,全幅墨气滞涩,艺术水准远不及故宫博物院藏董氏十二年前所作《仿古山水图》册,亦无法企及董氏卒前一年所作的《关山雪霁图》卷。可见,《山水》册和《董范合参图》轴非董氏本家之作。     

荆州松柏木牍所见西汉南郡的历史地理问题

新近公布的荆州松柏木牍,记载了武帝前期南郡所辖17个县、道、侯国的名称,这是除了《汉书.地理志》以外,有关南郡辖县的又一次明确记载。荆州松柏木牍具有重要的历史地理价值,它不但使我们对武帝前期南郡的政区有了清晰的认识,还使我们对《二年律令.秩律》中一些县、道的归属问题有了新的认识,而且也促进了我们对西汉时期南郡政区演变的了解。     

Dressing a City’s Demeanour: Ottoman Costume Albums and the Portrayal of Urban Identity in the Early Seventeenth Century

The costume album remains an invaluable tool in revealing how patrons organised and catalogued their constantly expanding world through dress. Considering the success of the costume book as a booming market product in early modern Europe and its response in the bazaars of Ottoman Istanbul in the early seventeenth century, the topic warrants further examination of how these books shaped literate society’s perceptions of other cultures. Two early costume albums illustrate a compelling dialogue concerning the population of Ottoman Istanbul, both commissioned in bazaars by foreign travellers: the Warsaw Album of the Muzeum Narodowe w Warszawie (BOZ 165), and the Peter Mundy Album currently residing at the British Museum (Add. 23880/1974-6-7-013). My paper assesses how these books create contrasting portrayals of power and social diversity in the Ottoman Empire by using depictions of dress as windows into cultural mores. I explore how each book attempts to form a city portrait through its compilation of characters and dress in the albums. With these sources, I highlight how the joint efforts of Ottoman artists and foreign patrons offer a surprising range of interpretation, despite their mass-produced reputation in scholarship. This study highlights the considerable role of the European compiler as a curatorial agent in this process.     

《史记索隐》“■县”地名校议

今本《史记·黥布列传》“兹乡”《索隐》注“番阳■县之乡”,当作“鄡阳县之乡”。“■”为“鄡”之俗讹字。“鄡”字又作“郻”,《汉书·地理志》郻县在巨鹿郡,鄡阳县在豫章郡,与番阳近者为鄡阳县,《索隐》作“鄡县”误。西汉无番阳郡,依《索隐》体例亦不得言“番阳鄡阳县”。《史记索隐》当是据《汉书》颜师古注为说,今本《索隐》此注有误。

试论左郡左县制

左郡左县之名首见于刘宋,萧齐有较大发展,萧梁时达到极盛,左郡之上产生左州。左郡左县制在边郡制基础上发展而来,但又有其特点,其设立以蛮酋的归附为前提,均有实地,且权力世袭。左郡左县与朝廷关系复杂,但左郡左县制的实行,说明少数民族都已受到政府不同程度的控制,有利于向编户转化。
