金文全文電腦化資料庫計劃

計劃簡介

　　1999年本計劃獲「香港政府研究資助局」撥款，俾使本中心能繼甲骨文全文資料庫之後，進一步拓展古文字全文資料庫至吉金銘 文。本資料庫錄入資料主要來源於中國社會科學院考古所編《殷周金文集成釋文》(2001年10月出版)，總計收錄12021銅器，約1萬8千張拓本(包括摹本)，約近100萬字器物資料說明，另14萬字隸定釋文，皆經研究人員仔細校勘，並悉數輸入電腦。資料庫建成後，將為金文研究工作者，提供便捷的檢索金文文獻的資料工具庫，具有金文銘 文和釋文對照檢索，以及詞串統計等功能。

　　本計劃在文字上糾正了原釋文中存在的錯誤，並吸收了近廿年來新的研究成果。既可以為一般讀者學習和了解青銅器提供一部較為方便的讀本，也可以滿足於專業學者的基本檢索需求，提供準確的數據參考。

 

資料庫特色

  1. 採用榮獲多次國家出版金獎的審定書籍《殷周金文集成》。
  2. 金文字總表檢索是根據金文的字形特點進行，分設漢字部首和原形部首檢索兩種檢索方法，方便讀者達到快捷檢索的目的。
  3. 釋文設有斷句，並分A、B兩種形式顯示。A釋文專用隸定古文字，俾便讀者了解銘 文原貌；B釋文在隸定古字下，再加通假釋讀，俾便讀者理解銘文內容。
  4. 在視窗系統上，設有金文原形字和釋文點擊對應顯示，便於讀者學習、研究金文。
  5. 設有金文每件銅器如時代、出土、現藏、著錄等資料說明和注釋，以便供讀者參考。
  6. 設有所有金文器銘字數頻率數據，俾便專業學者研究、統設及分析。
    　　

 

A Computerized Database of Bronze Inscriptions

Project Summary

　　 The project was funded by the Research Grants Council of the Hong Kong Government in 1999 to extend the CHANT Database of excavated materials incorporating the entire body of bronze inscriptions (Jinwen). The data of this project were based on the Compilation of Yin and Zhou Bronze Inscriptions published by the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. There are altogether 12021 bronze vessels, around 18,000 copies of the original inscriptions, 1 millions words of data explanation and 140,000 words of orthographic translation in our database. The database, when completed in early 2003, would provide handy searches for original Jinwen characters, orthographic translation as well as other useful functions.

　　We have put much effort in the editorial work for the utmost accuracy. The database not only will fulfill the needs of those who are interested in bronze inscriptions research, but also the academic requirements of the field.


Special Features

  1. Based on the award-winning Compilation of Yin and Zhou Bronze Inscriptions.
  2. Different searches on Jinwen characters available: based on original Jinwen radicals or radicals of standard Chinese characters.
  3. There are punctuations in the orthographic translation which are displayed in two formats for easy understanding of original Jinwen characters and their meanings.
