泰山封禪考:從觀象授時到祭天告成

On the Origin of the Ritual of Praying to Heaven at the Top of Mount Tai

摘要


古書相承之說,封禪泰山是在改朝易代和天下太平之時舉行的祭天告成儀式,但這只是封禪的後起之義,而非封禪的初始之義。封禪原本是一種旨在觀象授時、制定曆法的天文觀測活動,《尚書.堯典》關於舜巡守東嶽的記載就表明了這一點。但對於古人而言,天文觀測並非單純的科學活動,同時也是與天之神性溝通的手段,曆法即是天意的體現,因此,隨著天文觀測活動與封禪儀式相脫離成為一種專門性活動,封禪就演變為純粹宗教性的祭天告成儀式。

並列摘要


Praying to Heaven (封禪) at the top of Mount Tai (泰山) is an ancient and important royal ritual in Chinese history. This essay tries to illuminate that this ritual was not only a mere religious event, as traditionally believed, but also a practical and scientific event. The original aim of this ritual is to observe the seasonal movement of the sun on the mountain to make a primitive calendar for agriculture.
