摘要
"庄蹻王滇"传说最早见于《史记.西南夷列传》,是考察西南边疆族群起源的必征史料之一。然而作为史料,"庄蹻王滇"存在着众多难以诠解的疑点和自相矛盾之处,历代史书在承袭其基本框架的同时也在不断对之进行改写,自唐代始即有史家对其可信度提出质疑。洎乎当代,"庄蹻王滇"依然是一桩聚讼不休的史学悬案,甚至有学者根据文献研究和考古发掘的新近成果对其史学价值作出了基本否定的结论。如果我们把观照视野从历史文本的实在性转移到其话语性,未始不能在这则漏洞百出的史料中发现某些新的知识生长点。作为一个历史事件,"庄蹻王滇"的真实性或许是值得怀疑的,但它却相当真实地折射出特定时代不同族群之间的复杂关系,以及华夏族群在华夏中心主义观念的潜在支配下对于边疆族群起源的历史想像。
The legend of “Zhuang Qiao Conquered Dian ”first appeared in Records of the Grand Historian: The Account of the Southwestern Barbarians. For a very long time it had been an important documental basis for the researches of the ethnic groups in the southwest borderland of China. However there were so many unexplained and selfcontradictory statements in this legend that the later historians had to continually correct it while they followed its basic frame. In addition, some historians doubted the truth of it as early as Tang Dynasty. Today “Zhuang Qiao Conquered Dian”is still a controversial academic question. Based on the recent results of archae- ology and philology, some scholars drew the negative conclusions about the historical value of it. If we transfer our visual field of studying from historicity of texts to textuality of histories, we shall discover some new knowledge growth points in the highly-flawed legend. “Zhuang Qiao Conquered Dian” is probably doubtful as a truthful historical event, but it truthfully reflects the complicated relation between different ethnic groups in a given historical period and Chinese historical imagination about ethnic groups in Chinese borderlands under the influence of Cathay-centered consciousness.
