Yao Cha姚察(533-606), an official of the Liang, Chen and Sui dynasties, wrote the Hanshu xunzuan漢書訓纂, a 30-volume commentary on the Hanshu. His work was widely circulated at one time, but has long been lost. Fortunately, Yao Cha’s annotations were cited by a number of texts in the Tang dynasty, including the Shiji suoyin史記索隱and the Shiji zhengyi史記正義. The annotations on a Tang manuscript fragment of Yang Xiong’s Hanshu biography漢書揚雄傳also quoted more than a hundred entries from the Xunzuan. These citations afford us a glimpse of Yao’s long lost book. According to the Jiu Tangshu舊唐書, the Xunzuan was plagiarized by“later Hanshu commentator(s).”Although no specific names were revealed, the Qing scholar Shen Qinhan沈欽韓asserted that“the thief”was obviously Yan Shigu顏師古(581-645). Later scholars, including Yang Mingzhao楊明照and Yoshikawa Tadao吉川忠夫, agreed with his point of view. This article collects together the Xunzuan’s remaining fragments, compares Yao Cha’s annotations with those of Yan Shigu, and discovers that Yan not only borrowed from Yao’s work without giving credit, but he also developed and refuted some of Yao’s views. The article argues that Yan Shigu deliberately avoided referring to Yao Cha in any way due to his principle of adhering to commentaries from the Han, Wei and Jin dynasties, hence his exclusion of contemporary scholars from the line of transmission of Hanshu commentaries. |
