The Study And Comparison Of Some Documents Of Fu Xi In Si Ku Quan Shu Of Confucian Classics

Fu Xi is one of the most important mythical figures in Chinese ancient times, andmany literatures have documented some of Fu Xi’s deeds. This paper takes the WenYuan Ge Si Ku Quan Shu as the main source of literature, which the study andcomparison of some documents in Confucian classics involved in Fu Xi historicaldata, and we can regard the archaeological material as evidence. Because these twoparts literature which are more about Fu Xi and Yi, Fu Xi and the ritual, and there aretoo much repeatable content, we can’t study and compare temporarily these two partsliterature. This thesis is divided into three chapters.Introduction: This chapter mainly demonstrates the research of the value of FuXi and reviews all previous dynasties in the research of Fu Xi. Before the Han dynasty,literatures scattered records with Fu Xi historical data in addition to Si Ben. Since theHuang Fumi’s Di Wang Shi Ji, more and more literatures recorded the deeds of Fu Xi,such as Si Mazhen’s Shi Ji·Bu San Huang Ji, Li Fang’s Tai Ping Yu Lan, Luo Mi’s LuShi, Sun Jue’s Gu Wei Shu and Ma Su’s Yi Shi, ect. After the Qing dynasty, theacademia started to study Fu Xi from the perspective of different disciplines, such asmythology, archaeology, ect.Chapter one: To study and compare Fu Xi’s different names. We list more thanFu Xi’s twenty names in the first section from the perspective of literature: Fu Xi(伏羲)、Fu Xi(伏戏)、Fu Xi(伏牺)、Fu Xi(宓羲)、Fu Xi(宓戏)、Fu Xi(宓牺)、Fu Xi(虙戏)、Fu Xi(虙羲)、Fu Xi(虙牺)、Pao Xi(庖牺)、Pao Xi(庖羲)、Bao Xi(包羲)、BaoXi(包牺)、Pao Xi(炮羲)、Pao Xi(炮牺)、Xi Huang(羲皇)、Xi Huang(牺皇)、HuangXi (皇羲)、Tai Hao(太昊)、Tai Hao(太皞). Twenty names can be divided into threegroups, which we want to reveal the causes of Fu Xi’s different names. We know thatFu Xi’s twenty names are the result of permutation and combination by analysis inthis article, between the relations and among speech on transfers, ancient and modernwords, and people attached some metaphorical meaning to Fu Xi.Chapter two: To study and compare Fu Xi’s life story. We have studied Fu Xi’sbirthplace and figure and so on, which these literatures record in Di Wang Shi Ji and Shi Yi Ji, ect. The second section has mainly studied Fu Xi from the perspective ofarchaeological. This section has mainly studied the relationship between Fu Xi andNv Wa, which the silk book Chu of Hu Nan Chang Sha Zi Dan Ku has recordedBao Xi（雹）and Nv Tian（女填）,and unearthed the remnant in Dun Huang of TianDi Kai Pi Yi Lai Di Wang Ji.Chapter three: Fu Xi and music literature. This chapter mainly divides into twopart, and it also is this paper’s major part in discuss. The first section mainlysummarized Fu Xi’s five names of music, Fu Lai(扶来), Li Ben(立本), Li Ji(立基),Jia Bian(驾辩) and Wang Gu Zhi Ge(罔罟之歌). In the second quarter, we havestudied the relationship between Fu Xi and Qin Se from three part taking Wen YuanGe Si Ku Quan Shu as the main literature sources: Fu Xi making Qin, Fu Xi makingSe, Qin and Se in the archaeological discovery. Finally we can come to the conclusionthat even though Fu Xi and Shen Nong are the characters of Era of Legend and wecan’t be sure that Qin and Se are invented by them, but some artifacts may exist inthe age of Fu Xi and Shen Nong. Qin and Se are commonly made of wood, which arevery difficult to preserve, so at present the earliest unearthed Qin and Se have foundin the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
