| The research for the engraving must be restored for the reality of history, reflect the real backgroundproduced by inscriptions.We should not study characters in engraving with the present view of art, eitherfind some false significances. In this sense, the formation of the inscriptions is closely related to the socialthoughts and social customs. As a major class,scholar is one of the class who is the most persistent andhave dominating place in the Chinese history.As the social conscience and social upright spokesman, theirsocial values and individual values are comprehensively educated by Confucianism, and the social status ofscholar has deeply influenced not only the ruling class but also the common people. So, lots of socialcustoms are influenced by the thoughts of the scholar class.To study its influence to engraving,we do nothave the ability to introduce from every side, but we can get the knowledge that the final appearance ofengraving is a result of these thoughts. In other words, the thoughts of the Chinese scholar in some degreereflected the social thoughts of the mainstream tendency, and this is also the subject orientation in class onbehalf of the class as a main reason to study.Since the Emperor Wu, namely Liu Che ordered suggestion "Get rid of other genres, but onlyConfucianism",Confucianism which stress Divine right of Kings had achieved supremacy, and became oneof the main tools of the ruling class. While the highest position of Confucianism not only reflect in theprinciple of rule and political power in the Han Dynasty, but also reflect in the class.Confucian has beencompletely dominated the thoughts of the scholars and formulated a kind of social concept, and engravingand making is further more than an action on inscriptions, a niche in the temple of fame is not just a simplecustom, but a historical product of the social ideology under the comprehensive action.The engraving of china has a long history, but the inscriptions reached peak in the Han Dynasty, anddivided into some new forms, including epitaph, stone by stone towers, and the portrait stone inscription,the masterpiece of inscriptions has a huge amount in Han Dynasty, it is mainly because the scholars believein "filial piety" which is a major thoughts of Confucian.Of course, this is not the only influence. Theinfluences of inscriptions, in many others are influential, for example:the stone shape,the engraving, eventhe carving. From the form, the Han Dynasty Confucianism for funeral inscriptions, stone inscriptions, portraits,epitaphs and have more or less influence, especially on the funeral inscriptions, stone, an obvious effect.But due to the limited space, here to funerary inscriptions as the main object of study to demonstrate itsinfluence, complemented by stone epitaphs, discuss other forms of stone not elaborate. In addition,according to the study of epigraphy in Ming and Qing Dynasties,"stone" is a word in the name has beenaccurately defines the scope of the study, the so-called inscriptions in stone, engraved with the words, onlyavailable for reading identification. So we in the article will be more use of "stone" as a word to express.The thesis consists of five chapters and three parts. The first part concludes the introduction part, thepart of the introduction of topics and the summary of related research in academic circles, clarifies the mainpoints and innovations. The second part is the main part of this thesis, consist of the first chapter, thesecond chapter.The third chapter and the fourth chapter, generally emphasize the speculative of the thesis,separately describe it from the scholar, concept of the Confucian, the form of the inscriptions, the characterof inscriptions.However,it is not only interrelated the inscriptions in accordance with the classification theform, but will demonstrate though the comprehensive influence of the idea of Confucian in a part. TheConfucian concept of scholars in the Han Dynasty which consist of filial piety, righteousness, conceptrespectively influence the quantity, form, content (i.e., the influence of inscription) are separatelydemonstrated. The third part consists of the fifth chapter and the conclusion part, makes a summary fromthe influence of Han Tablet Inscriptions of the Han Dynasty,and as the promotion and sublimation of thisthesis. |
