摘要
我国自有文字记载的商代以来,历代王朝的都城都是全国的政治、经济和文化中心。而历史上各代都城规制的变化,因为能反映一个时代经济、文化特征的变化,成为史学研究中的一个重要部分。我国历史上做过都城的城市有几十处,为研究其典型性,20世纪20年代,学术界将西安、洛阳、北京、南京、开封并列为"五大古都"。20世纪30年代又将杭州列入,成为"六大古都"。20世纪80年代,谭其骧先生提出将安阳(殷、邺)也列入大古都为"七大古都"。当时引起学术界的热烈讨论,最后得到了学术界的首肯,成为都城史研究界的共识。这里整理的三封信为谭其骧先生20世纪80年代后期与安阳地方学者讨论此问题的通信,从中也可以看出老一辈学者对学术的认真态度和科学精神。
Since Shang Dynasty,during w hich the earliest textural records emerged,capital cities of various dynasties have served as national centers of politics,economy and culture.Evolutions of planning and management of capital cities have been a significant aspect in the historical research,because they can reflect changes in economic and cultural characteristics in a corresponding period.M ore than ten cities w ere designated as the capital city of China at some points in the history.To address the representativeness of capital cities,in1920 s,the academia listed Xi’an,Luoyang,Beijing,Nanjing and Kaifeng as Five Ancient Capitals.Hangzhou w as added to this list in 1930 s,making the list into Six Ancient Capitals.In 1980 s,Tan Qixiang proposed to add Anyang(know n as Yin or Ye)to the list,w hich w ould turn the list into Seven Ancient Capitals.At that time,this proposal triggered intense discussions in the academia.It w as eventually approved by the academia and became a consensus among mainstream historians.These three letters,presented here,w ere w ritten in late1980 s.They w ere exchange letters addressing the proposal mentioned above betw een Tan Qixiang and local scholars in Anyang.Through these letters,w e could also notice the professional attitude and scientific spirit that scholars in the earlier generation used to carry.
