先秦兩漢引錄經籍研究計劃
香港中文大學中國文化研究所成立「漢達古文獻資料庫中心」，首項研究計劃為「先秦兩漢一切傳世文獻電腦化資料庫」，以電腦重新紀錄兩漢及以前全部傳世文獻，並編纂《先秦兩漢古籍逐字索引叢刊》，及以電子媒體出版「漢達古籍資料庫檢索系統」，臂助學者從事漢學研究。
依據古文獻資料庫研究成果，中國語言及文學系陳雄根教授及何志華教授於一九九八年開展「先秦兩漢引錄經籍首階段研究計劃」，，進行先秦兩漢傳世文獻引錄十三經研究（即《周易》、《尚書》、《毛詩》、《周禮》、《儀禮》、《禮記》、《春秋左傳》、《春秋公羊傳》、《春秋穀梁傳》、《孟子》、《論語》、《爾雅》及《孝經》），全面檢索先秦兩漢文獻引錄十三經文例，並比勘各種版本，紀錄異同，俾便參照。該項研究計劃共分兩期進行，預計於零三年全部完成，現正利用研究成果，編纂、出版《先秦兩漢文獻引經叢書》，收錄文獻多種，包括《先秦兩漢文獻引〈書〉考》、《先秦兩漢文獻引〈詩〉考》、《先秦兩漢文獻引〈易〉考》等，預計零二年底正式出版。另外，互聯網的應用日漸普及，儼然已成為書刊、光碟、磁碟以外的嶄新出版媒體。本計劃將借助「漢達文庫」專門網站，將研究成果上網，並重新編寫網上檢索程式，以便學者於網上進行閱讀、檢索古代典籍引用經書的文例。
A
Complete Study of the Numerous Citations from the Thirteen Classics Found
in Pre-Han and Han Traditional Texts
The CHANT (CHinese ANcient Texts) Database was completed in 1991 and a series
of concordances to ancient Chinese texts was compiled using the database.
With its unique feature of extensive textual comparison and editorial notes,
it is widely accepted by the community of scholars.
Making use of the CHANT Database, Professor Chan Hung-kan
and Professor Ho Che-wah put forward "A Proposal of the First Phase of
a Complete Study of the Numerous Citations from the Thirteen Classics Found
in Pre-Han and Han Traditional Texts" in 1998 and was granted by the
UGC a total of HK$0.628M. They have completed the explicit and implicit citations
of MaoShi, and ShangShu, also the explicit citations from another four classics,
viz., Liji, Zhouli, Yili and Xiaojing. Meanwhile, they are now searching the
implicit citations from the aforesaid four classics. Following this, the Second
Phase of the Proposal was proposed in 2000 and was granted by the UGC a total
of HK$0.631M, to complete the searching of explicit and implicit citations
from the rest of the Classics, namely Zhouyi, ChunQiu Zuozhuan, ChunQiu Gongyangzhuan,
ChunQiu Guliangzhuan, Lunyu, Mengzi and Erya. A comparison between these citations
with the extant versions has also been made and numerous variations were found.
These findings are useful research tools for further studies as scholars can
save time on primary data collection. A series of books entitled "The
Complete Collection of the Citation from the Thirteen Classics found in Pre-Han
and Han Traditional Texts" would be published in due course. For the
use of a wider community, the results of the research is now made available
through the Internet hosted under the CHANT website.
