摘要
关于《西夏地形图》的绘制年代,学术界一直存在两种不同的观点,一种认为:此图为宋人所绘,证据是文献记载此图出于宋人《范文正公集》;一种认为:此图为清人所绘,因为所见实物仅存于清张鉴《西夏纪事本末》一书中。本文作者由于在明万历三十六年(公元1608年)刻《宋两名相集》中找到了此图,从而否定了"清代说"。继而又结合图的内容和有关文献分析,推定地图为宋代官吏绘于大观二年(公元1108年),从而基本上解决了地图的年代问题。文中还着重分析了这幅迄今所见最早西夏地图的地学内容和科学价值。
Having found Xi Xia Di Xing Tu(Topographic Map of Western Xia) in Song Liang Ming Xiang Ji(Collected Works of Two Famous Prime Ministers in the Song Dynasty) printed in the 36th year of Wanli reign of the Ming dynasty (1608), the authors made an analysis of both the content of the map and relevant documents, and inferred that the map must be drawn by an official of the Song dynasty in 1108. In this article they also appraise the scientific value and geographical content of the first and sole map of the Western Xia regime that has been handed down.
