漢~唐代に成立発展した瑞獣の図とその東アジアへの伝播について多分野の祥瑞研究従事者により考察する学際的研究である。龍・鳳凰など多様な種が知られる瑞獣は、王権の正当性を保障する象徴として政治利用されたのみでなく、東アジアの世界観・死生観など文化の基底にも存在するが、従来の祥瑞研究ではとくに図像の研究成果を活用しきれていない。そこで本研究では文献・図像を統合すべく王権との関わりを一つの中心的課題として、研究者間で方針の一貫性を図り、新出の祥瑞図を現地調査し、関連の文献を読解し、①漢~唐代の主要な瑞獣とその図像の名称・機能の検討、②瑞獣図のデータベース化、③唐代の重要な祥瑞文献の翻刻と出版を目指す。

Despite a long history of research into the casting methods used for Jinwen in the Yin Zhou period—with a variety of hypotheses suggested to date—the actual methods used remained unclear. In light of this situation, the author has conducted multiple casting experiments with the cooperation of the Ashiyagamanosato Museum for the purpose of elucidating the casting methods used for Jinwen. This paper reports the results of the experiments and gives several preconsiderations against the background of changes in the lettering style used on Jinwen from the perspective of casting techniques.  The results of our experiments conducted revealed that the so-called slip method, in which slip is applied repeatedly using a brush onto a plate buried in a core, most logically answers the questions about the casting methods used for Jinwen. Historically, this method was first suggested by RUAN Yuan of the Qing dynasty; in a sense, our experiments proved the validity of his suggestion after more than 200 years. Based on the success of our experiments in indicating the technical logicality of the burial method, the author also suggests that the casting method used for Jinwen introduced in this paper be named the “slip-plate method.”  The experiment results do not rule out the possibility of other Jinwen casting methods. On the contrary, variations in technique are very likely depending on locations and time periods. During the Eastern Zhou period, some Jinwen letterings deviated from the typical Western Zhou style to show a significant proximity to the Zhuanshu style. These changes in lettering style suggest the historical background of changes in the casting method used from the slurry-plate to the model-carving method.  Based on the above findings, further detailed examination of variations in Jinwen lettering styles is awaited in order to obtain detailed knowledge about the dissemination of the lettering culture during the Yin Zhou period along with the actual prevailing conditions. This will be an extremely important and significant research theme not only with respect to the history of the technique, but also for the histories of calligraphy and palaeography.
