The study of Han Yu in Ming Dynasty is slightly obscure compared with that in Song and Qing Dynasties.In theory,the Han studies in the Ming dynasty inherited from the Song and Yuan dynasties and descended to the Qing dynasty,which is an important link in the development of the whole history of Han studies.The study of this period of Han studies can get through the history of Han studies over a thousand years,making the content of the whole history of Han studies more complete and clearer.The acceptance of Han Yu's ancient writings by the Ming dynasty is an important aspect of Han studies in the whole Ming dynasty,which mainly relies on the original materials such as the literature of Han collection in Ming dynasty and the anthology of ancient texts in Ming dynasty.Anthology criticism is one of the important methods to study ancient Chinese literature.Through the study of anthology,we can outline a history of criticism and even a history of acceptance.So,this paper studies the acceptance of Han Yu's ancient writings in Ming dynasty,which centers on the anthology of ancient prose of Ming dynasty.This paper is divided into two parts,including seven chapters.The first part mainly considers from four aspects,such as imperial examination culture in Ming dynasty,publishing in Ming dynasty,literati association in late Ming dynasty and the Generation of Eight Great Masters in Tang and Song Dynasties in Ming Dynasty,and studies the acceptance of Han Yu and his ancient writings in these three historical fields,which combined with the selection and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient writings in anthologies of Ming dynasty.The second part is mainly about the literature review of Han collections in Ming dynasty.Based on the anthology of ancient writings of Ming dynasty,the essay narrates the related anthologies,and select the representative selection for textual research,reveals the selection and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient writings.Han Yu's ancient prose was one of the must-read of examineein the Ming Dynasty,that was why many anthologies of ancient prose and Han Yu's collections could enter the school library in this way.When compiling anthologies of ancient prose,local scholars with different academic backgrounds often selected the ancient proses of Han Yu and even the so-called Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties.With the transfer of officials,the spread of Han Yu's ancient prose among the lower intellectuals had also expanded.Therefore,the local system of educational officers played an important role in the inheritance of Han Yu's ancient prose and even the ancient prose of Tang and Song Dynasties'.The second section is about marking criterion in the imperial examination of Ming Dynasty and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient prose.Among the anthologies of ancient prose in Ming Dynasty,a certain number of anthologies were edited for the imperial examination.During the specific marking,the answer papers which were standard and won more favor from the marking officers,and Han Yu's writing style meet such standards perfectly.Through investigation,it can be found that 29 Han Yu's ancient prose,such as Exploring the Nature of Tao were generally regarded as suitable models for imperial examination in Ming Dynasty.These 29 proses of Han were the classics of Han Yu's ancient writings selected as anthologies in Ming Dynasty.Therefore,the anthologies of ancient proses in Ming Dynasty played an important part in promoting the canonization of Han's proses.The second chapter mainly studies the relationship between publishing in the Ming dynasty and the selection and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient prose by taking Tang wen gui,a ten-volume volume of the Shanghai library collection,as an example.With the development of commercial publishing and book market in the middle and late Ming dynasty,the situation of publishing books under the guise of celebrities and shooting profits also appeared.In the field of commentary on ancient prose anthologies in the Ming dynasty,Zhong Xing was one of the most famous scholars,and the anthology of "Wen GUI" series under the name of Zhong Xing also became a popular publication in the book market in the end of the Ming dynasty.Therefore,if we want to evaluate the value of some selected anthology,the first thing is to clarify the authenticity of these anthology,the title of Zhong Xing "tang wen gui" is a suitable entry point.The first section of this chapter,on the basis of the existing research,and then textual research of the Shanghai library collection of ten volumes of"tang wengui"as the forgery ZhongXing work.And think that the forgery for shu fang jixian tang in Nanjing of the late Ming dynasty.The second section studies the value of the comments on the 14 ancient Han Yu essays in Tang wengui,and holds that most of these comments are of high academic value.This group of booksellers belongs to the middle class of the literacy class thought by the Japanese scholar OKI Yasushi(???).Taking"Tang Wen GUI"as the medium,we can infer the acceptance of Han Yu ancient text in this middle class.As a commercial anthology of ancient texts in the late Ming dynasty under the drive of commercial publishing spread,Han Yu ancient text as a carrier to get the dissemination.The third chapter mainly takes Tang Wengui compiled by Zhu Dongguan and others in Zhejiang Library as an example to study the relationship between literati Association in thelate Ming Dynasty and Han Yu's selection and evaluation of ancient Chinese prose.There was a close relationship between literati Association and literature in Ming Dynasty.By studying the selected articles such as Tang Wengui selected by Zhu Dongguan and his associates,we can not only make a concrete analysis of the activities of literary societies in this period,but also take the public space of literary societies as the center to explore how literati in the late Ming Dynasty evaluated Han Yu.The first section of this chapter mainly examines the association of Zhu Dongguan and others in Hangzhou at the end of Ming Dynasty.It holds that the association has a process of development and evolution,and has a close relationship with another well-known cultural association in Hangzhou at the end of Ming Dynasty.In the course of the development of the literary society,their literary concepts have also changed,from "devoting themselves to the books of Qin and Han Dynasties" to the following articles in Tang and Song Dynasties.The second section,centering on Tang Wengui edited by the society,studies its acceptance of Han Yu and his ancient writings.It is believed that when choosing ancient writings,the society selected some relatively "cold" articles,which mostly reflected the social problems existing in the middle Tang Dynasty.Through the selection and evaluation of these articles,they expressed their hidden worries about various social crises in the late Ming Dynasty.In addition,by investigating the inheritance of ancient writings for the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties and its influence on the following articles in Tang and Song Dynasties,the club has actually constructed a system of eight ancient writings from pre-Qin and Han Dynasties to Tang and Song Dynasties.The fourth chapter mainly studies the generation of the Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties in the Ming Dynasty,and on this basis,explores the acceptance of Han Yu's ancient prose within the scope of this ancient prose.In the early Ming Dynasty,Song Lian,Wang Hui,Liu Ji and others constructed a literary tradition composed of Han Yu,Liu Zongyuan,Ouyang Xiu,Su Xun,Su Shi,Su Zhe,Zeng Gong and Wang Anshi.From Yongle to Zhengde,this view of literary tradition has been followed by Tai Ge ministers.Between Chenghua and Zhengde,a force against the tradition of Tang and Song literary works is also taking shape,seriously deteriorating the living environment of Tang and Song literary works in the mainstream literary arena.The tradition of Tang and Song Wen is closely related to the imperial examination culture of Ming Dynasty,which can be said to indirectly guarantee the survival space of Tang and Song Wen in the system.In the process of embedding Han Yu and other eight schools of Tang and Song Dynasty into the ancient literary system,Han Yu became a key figure connecting the preceding and the following in the literary system,the Tang and Song School played a decisive role.Before Mao Kun's Eight Great Literary Notesof Tang and Song Dynasty were first inscribed in Wanli seven years ago,the titles of "Seven Great Masters","Four Great Masters" and "Six Great Masters" prevailed in the society.Among these combinations,Han,Liu,Ou and Dasu are the most stable.With the rapid growth of the number of selected editions of the same kind,the title of "Eight Masters of Tang and Song Dynasty" was formally formed in Chongzhen period.The second part is divided into three chapters.The first chapter mainly discusses the selection and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient writings during the period from Hongwu to Longqing.Before the middle Ming dynasty,the publishing industry had not yet flourished,and it was difficult to preserve the literature.Therefore,there are not many ancient text anthologies left till now.In terms of the ancient writings of Han Yu selected from the anthologies of ancient writings of the Ming dynasty,the anthologies of ancient writings of this period were mainly used in imperial examinations.Han Yu's ancient writings are favored by these anthologies and are often among the must-read.From the Jiajing period,the selection of anthologies mainly focused on the ancient writings of pre-Qin,Han and Tang and Song Dynasties,while the ancient writings of Tang and Song Dynasties focused on the so-called Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties.The second chapter mainly discusses the selection and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient prose in Wanli period.Selected ancient texts of this period are characterized by: Firstly,with the publication of MAO Kun's Eight Masters of Tang and Song,the number of Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song has increased.The "Tang and Song School" has continued in Wanli literary circle.Secondly,there are selected editions of Qian Gu's Han Wen Juan Lin,Wang Xijue's Wang Jingshi's Criticism of Han Wen and Guo Zhengyu's Selection of Han Chang Li Wen,which indicate that the research of Han Yu in Ming Dynasty is becoming more specialized.Thirdly,there are ancient anthologies of the nature of "self-entertainment",such as Qian Shiao's Appreciation and Compilation.Fourthly,Fourthly,the selected editions of Jia Sanjin's Hua Yao Bibliography and Zou Diguang's Wenfu Funny show the aspect of Han Yu's ancient prose "taking literature as a play",which is also one of the characteristics of Han Yu's acceptance of ancient prose in this period.In addition,this chapter also makes a case study of Guo Zhengyu's Selection of Han Chang Li Wen.The three chapter mainly deals with the selection and evaluation of Han Yu's ancient prose in the Ming Dynasty during the period from Tianqi to Chongzhen.In this period,the main characteristics of ancient anthologies are as follows: Firstly,with the advent of the flourishing publishing period in the late Ming Dynasty,there appeared some ancient anthologies of pseudo celebrities in the book market.Secondly,in the late Ming Dynasty,scholars compiled some selected ancient texts,which provided a basis for the study of the acceptance of Han Yu's ancient texts in different text spaces.In addition,Sun Shenxing's Selected Eight Great Literary Notes and other selected editions of Eight Great Literary Notes resulted in the continuation of Han Yu's and Tang and Song classical writings in the late Ming Dynasty.
