古文字字形演變之實證 ─以《說文解字》第五卷（上卷）為例
(An Investigation into) The Development of the Written Form of Ancient Chinese Characters：A Case Study of the first half of juan 5 of the Shouwenjiezi
摘要
本論文名為「實證」，主要是以許進雄先生所提出之七項演變原則，對《說文解字》第五卷上卷的308個字，進行古文字字形源流與演變關係之探討，並建立其古文字字形演變之序列。 七項原則分別是：文獻年代、文獻性質、造字創意、寫實程度、演變常律、部件更替、造字法則。一個字形在某時代出現，未必即為該時代的字形，它可能保留了前代較為原始的字形，也可能是到該時代才新變發展的字形，故年代可以做為判斷字形先後的第一標準，但也有其限制，需要其他原則的輔助。首先應論證其創意，愈接近實際狀況的創意解讀，才能更合理的解釋往後的發展與變化。寫實程度常可配合創意來一併運用。而古文字演變常見一些規律性的變化，如飾筆添加的條件與形式。部件更替指的是形符或聲符的代換。造字法則通常以象形結構先於形聲結構。 通過七項原則的運用而建立一套可靠的古文字字形演變序列，對古文字研究的斷代和釋字也能提供很大的幫助。

The 「investigation」 means that using the seven prinples bringing up by Professor James Hsu to treat the origin and development of ancient Chinese characters on 308 words of the first half of juan 5 of the Shuowenjiezi.And to build sequences of these characters. The seven principles are：era of materials, character of materials, implication of character creation, graphical degree,axiom of changing forms, replacement of component, law of character creation. An character appears in some era, possible not belong the era.It can be to keep the former forms of character, or it’s a new form of character.Thus, the principle of character’s era has its restriction. Than other principles can assistant to judge the sequence.First, we should prove the creative meaning of character, as close to the real situation, we can get more reasonable explanation of character’s development. Through the use of seven principles, we can build a dependable sequence of ancient chinese character’s changing form. The sequence provide more help in division of history into periods and character’s explanation.
