越南人文地理之研究――以嚴耕望先生歷史地理研究為發想

Taking Inspiration from Mr. Yen Keng-Wang’s Historical Geography Research

越南與中國關係密切，不僅僅是山水相連，自上古以來交阯地區與中原之聯繫，甚至強過廣西等西南地區。漢文字填補了越南民族沒有自創文字時的記載空白，這些記載不僅展現在紙質文書上，還存留在各地的金石銘刻中。由於金石銘刻具有「當是時」的時空記載特性，更具有史實的價值，本文欲藉用現存的越南漢喃碑文，試著探討越南在當時長期的時空環境，如何成就其核心集團並建構其國家的體制。

Vietnam and China have a close relationship, not only because of their proximity but also because of their historical connections. The region of Jiaozhi (交阯) has been connected with the Central Plains of China since ancient times, even more so than other southwestern regions such as Guangxi. Chinese characters filled the gap in the Vietnamese language's lack of a written script, with these records not only found on paper documents but also in inscribed inscriptions scattered throughout the country. Due to the chronological and spatial characteristics of inscribed texts, they have even more historical value.
This article aims to use the existing Chinese-Vietnamese bilingual inscriptions to explore how Vietnam achieved its core group and constructed its national system in the long-term temporal and spatial environment of that period.
The author of this article divides the history of China-Vietnam relations into five periods: the Baiyue ethnic period, the Chinese commandery period, the Jimi period, the Suzerain period, and the troika period when Vietnamese lands were split between Vietnam, France, and the Qing Dynasty. Based on the records of stone inscriptions, each period shows varying degrees of Chinese influence on the development of Vietnam.
During the Chinese commandery period, the northern part of Vietnam was basically a local administrative region of China, developing synchronously with various provinces in China and exhibiting a high degree of integration. The political organization formed in the Five Dynasties period in China in the form of fictitious kinship was also established by Dương Đình Nghệ, who created a closely-knit fictitious kinship group. From then on, the political power alternated among Ngô Quyền, the Twelve Warlords, Đinh Bộ Lĩnh, Lê Hoàn, and Lý Thái Tổ within the same fictitious kinship group, establishing a core group and core region based on this foundation.
This accumulated political power ultimately formed the historical framework of Vietnam's ''imperial self-governance.''
