The explanations and interpretations of difficult words and phrases in the Book of Odes involve many issues, and the judgement of the correctness is difficult to make. This study intends to investigate different types of difficulties in establishing the criteria for explaining and interpreting false character pattern, poetic context, rephrasing, false or true situation, tautology, morphology, polysemy, dual text and continuity. Moreover, it attempts to inspect the basis of criteria for explaining and interpreting difficult words and phrases from old annotations. Based on the principle of “A grammar rule cannot be set with less than ten examples,” this study inspects a large number of difficult words and phrases in the Book of Odes. This study followed the examples of exegetical methods and theories of four principles of Wang of Gaoyou, Yu Yue's Examples of Disputable Problems From Classic, Chen Yuan's Annotations to Code of Yuan Dynasty, Yu Chia-hsi's General Structure of Ancient Documents, as well as the summaries of General Structure of Ancient Documents, in order to establish the criteria for explaining and interpreting the difficult words and phrases in the Book of Odes. Finally, suggestions are provided on ten malpractices of old critical interpretation of ancient texts mentioned in Zhou Da-pu's Studies of Exegesis, in order to strengthen the practice of exegesis. |
