A Synthetic Research on Chaoye-Leiyao

宋末出版的《朝业-雷尧》，尽管被广泛认为是解读宋朝行政的简明而有用的指南，但却没有得到很好的研究。我们的项目旨在揭示更多关于这一文献的编译者和历史，并编写带有注释的翻译。为了回顾和概述中国关于潮业-雷瑶研究的研究现状，我们于2006年1月至2007年1月邀请了三位国内知名学者，张西庆（北京大学教授）、苗淑梅（河南大学教授）和朱瑞希（上海师范大学教授），分别进行了讨论。2006年4月访问北京大学时，我们从文本版本、编者、内容和参考书目等广泛的角度进行了进一步的热烈讨论。在大学图书馆，我们获得了《四库全书》文本所依据的原版（《会东文集》），并在书中发现了除会东本人的修改外，图书馆工作人员的大量修改痕迹。​他们的努力促成了第一本向日本介绍明朝版《朝业-雷尧》的书。我们有价值的发现包括一个关于编译者赵升身份的发现，赵升的职业尚未确定。在天理大学出版的《冲边乡北随经》中，我们发现了对他的两处批评，得出结论：他不是政府官员，而是书店老板。我们的项目成果发表在《潮业-雷尧综合研究》一书中，其中收录了330项完整的历史文献日语翻译和注释。

Chaoye-Leiyao, a late Song publication, despite being widely recognized as a compact and useful guide to the interpretation of the Song administration, has not been well studied. Our project aims to reveal more about the compiler and history of this literature, and to compile its translation with annotation.To review and overview China's research situations concerning the study of Chaoye-Leiyao, we invited three leading Chinese scholars, Zhang Xiqing (Professor, Beijing University), Miao Shumei (Professor, Henan University), and Zhu Ruixi (Professor, Shanghai Teachers University) from January 2006 to January 2007, and had discussion sessions respectively.When we visited Beijing University in April 2006, we had further stimulating discussions from extensive viewpoints including text version, compiler, contents, and bibliography. At the university library we gained access to the original (the Hui Dong variorum) on which Siku Quanshu (the complete library in the four branches of literature) text was based, and discovered in the books a significant number of traces resulting from the Library clerks' revisory work besides Hui Dong's. We conducted detailed bibliographical checkup of the primary printed text at Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Nanjing University, National Library of China, and National Central Library in Taiwan. The efforts resulted in the first book to introduce the Ming version of Chaoye-Leiyao to Japan.Our valuable discoveries include one about the identification of the compiler Zhao Sheng, whose occupation had not been determined. In Chong bian xiang bei sui jing, published by Tenri University, we detected two critical descriptions about him and concluded that he was not a government official but a bookstore keeper.The result of our project is reported in the publication of A Synthetic Research on Chaoye-Leiyao, which contains the complete 330 items of Japanese translation and annotation of the historical literature.
