A Study On Phonetic Characters In Warring States Period

This paper takes the pictophonological characters of the Warring States Period as the research object,and takes the Chart of The Characters of the Warring States Period as the main scope of investigation.At the same time,new materials such as Tsinghua University Bamboo Slips of the Warring States Period(Lu),Tsinghua University Bamboo Slips of the Warring States Period(Seven),Tsinghua University Bamboo Slips of the Warring States Period(EIGHT),Tsinghua University Bamboo Slips of the Warring States Period(nine),Tsinghua University Bamboo Slips of the Warring States Period(Ten),And Anhui University Bamboo Slips of the Warring States Period(ONE)are added.Under the guidance of the theory of Chinese character configuration,this paper divides the phonographic characters of the Warring States period reasonably,and makes a statistical analysis of the number and frequency of the phonographic characters in the signification and phonetic system of the Warring States Period.On this basis,the paper systematically describes the phonographic characters of the Warring States Period and compares the phonographic system of the Warring States Period with that of xiaozhuan character.By comparing a large number of data,we have basically discussed the basic trend of the evolution of Chinese pictoacoustic system.The first chapter is the introduction to the status quo of pictographic characters in the Warring States,and a more scientific definition,according to the identification method provided by us,a total of 7981 pictographic characters in the war countries.(Of these,7,604 are Battle Sheets and 377 are new materials.)The second chapter,on the basis of summarizing the predecessors,summarizes eight sources,such as adding signifiers,adding signifiers,replacing signifiers and replacing signifiers,according to the characteristics of the pictographic characters of the Warring States Period.And the structure is divided into four types: typical,sub-typical,atypical and special.In chapter three and Chapter four,the semantic and phonetic symbols of the pictographic characters of the Warring States period were studied respectively,and7981 pictographic characters were rationally divided.A total of 413 semantic symbols of the pictographic characters of the warring States were concluded,including 75high-frequency symbols and 6972 constructional characters,accounting for 87.36% of the total number of pictographic characters of the Warring States period.There were2,086 phonetic symbols,including 602 high-frequency phonetic symbols and 5,893 constructed characters,accounting for 73.84% of the total number of phonetic characters in the Warring States Period.In chapter five,the author makes a comprehensive comparison with xiaozhuan sound system from two aspects of configuration and system quantification.
