Transition of Communes in Ancient China

三年多的研究，最重要的成果是翻译了《中国古代社会史论（北京人民出版社出版）在与冈田光、饭尾英之合著的《致日书》中，侯阿威鲁引用了大量的汉代文献，并尽可能地使用了当时出土的交古文、今文、史古文，他在这本书中对中国历史环境的杰出分析是基于西方历史理论，由马克思，恩格斯和其他人。这使得该书受到了中日学者的评价，但由于该书的晦涩难懂，直到今天才被翻译成外文。在本研究中，笔者首先对《史记》中所引用的史料进行了研究，然后对《史记》中出现的历史概念的译词进行了考察，在接下来的两篇文章中，笔者将对《史记》的历史意义进行研究，并对吕厚外的历史思想提出自己的看法。

The most important result of my research for over three years is to translate the work, "Zhongguo gudai Shehui Shilun (Published by Beijin Renmin Chubanshe) in to Japanese with Ko Okada and Hideyuki Iio, In this book Hou Wai Lu quotes many documents in Han-dai, In addition, he uses Jiao-gu Wen, Jin Wen, and Shi-gu Wen, that had been excavated as possible as he could at that time, His remarkable analysis of Chinese historical circumstances in this book is based on western historical theory, by Marx, Engels, and others. It makes the book to be evaluated by chinese and Japanese scholars, However, the book is very difficult to understand so that it has not been translated in foreign languages until today. In this research I made an effort to study the exavated documents that is quoted in this book, and then I investigated the translated words of historical concept appearingin this book.In next my two articles, I will study the historical meaning of this book and moreover I will explain my point of view toward the thought of Hou-Wai Lu.
