Huang Kan’s Notes on Etymology introduces the terms“etymological analysis”and“philological exegeses,”distinguishing the two primary roles of etymology in language studies and classical interpretation, though he does not elaborate on them. This article aims to clarify these concepts from both connotative and denotative perspectives, exploring the complex relationship between them in practical etymological work, where they are both unified and divergent. In terms of connotation, the article references Duan Yucai’s views on“annotations for Classics”and“compiling dictionaries,”as well as the organization of modern etymology around two approaches:“general interpretation of character meanings”and“contextual interpretation of meanings.”It examines the conceptual content and distinctions between“etymological analysis”and“philological exegeses”through Huang Kan’s transitional perspective, integrating his theories of“original etymology and subsequent etymology”and“independent etymology and subordinate etymology.”Regarding denotation, this article utilizes Zhu Junsheng’s etymological interpretations in Shuowen Tongxun Ding Sheng and various interpretive materials from Zhu to investigate the practical applications of“etymological analysis”and“philological exegeses.”It highlights their unity and divergence while exploring the relationship between linguistic analysis and classical interpretation. |
