摘要
到目前为止的研究,大多视宋代的江南,特别是太湖三角洲地区为生产力的先进地区。在这样的想法之下,大家以为“苏湖熟,天下足”俗语的流行就意味着如上的历史事实。但这个看法其实含有许多误解。例如“围田”等新田被整造的是事实、在占地条件或灌溉水的管理方面,仍抱着诸多不安定的因素。又对于占城稻普及的看法,过去的史料解释有错误。上述的俗语就带如下的意义。“当苏州和湖州丰收时,国库即大为充足”。其次,这个地区至少必须分为两个地区──即“三角洲”地区与“河谷平原”地区来考察。在此等观点之下,宋代的农业生产先进地区不在“三角洲”而在“河谷平原”的见解也就可以成立。
Many scholars have been thinking that the Deltaic tracts of Tai-hu (太湖) has the biggest production capacity in the Song dynasy. But this is a false image. This article offers a new way how to approach this problem. And offers to separate for 2 districts, the Deltaic tracts and the Middie riverine tracts.Studying their speciality, we can understand that the latter has bigger advantages rather than the former in the production capacity.
