《論語》「射不主皮」章鄭玄注的復原與其詮釋策略及成效的反思

鄭玄對〈八佾〉「射不主皮」章的解讀，完整地保存在唐寫本《論語鄭氏注》，就中可見鄭玄詮釋《論語》的策略及其成效。掌握鄭玄禮說，「以鄭還鄭」、「以鄭注證鄭注」成為準確辨識、復原以至詮釋注文的關鍵。有關「射不主皮」章注文的復原與釋讀，充分反映現行唐寫本《論語鄭氏注》整理本的不足。本文旨在運用「以鄭還鄭」、「以鄭注證鄭注」之法，復原唐寫本《論語鄭氏注》注文，以此文本為基礎探討和反思鄭注的詮釋策略及其成效，並據唐、宋人說，特別是僧肇之語，依「就文通義」原則，推明《論語》「射不主皮」章之意。

The annotation of “In archery piercing the leather target is not the point” by Zheng Xuan, as found in the Tang manuscript of “The Analects with Zheng Xuan’s Commentary”, is well-preserved. This preservation offers insights into Zheng Xuan's approach to interpreting The Analects and the effectiveness of these strategies. To fully comprehend Zheng Xuan’s ritual theory, it is crucial to adopt the methodologies of “using Zheng to return to Zheng” and “using Zheng's commentary to prove Zheng’s commentary”. The shortcomings of the three current editions of the Tang manuscript in terms of restoring and interpreting the commentary are highlighted in this passage. The objective of this article is to explore Zheng’s commentary strategies, their effectiveness, and the meaning of “In archery piercing the leather target is not the point” in The Analects, drawing on the interpretations of scholars from the Tang and Song Dynasties, particularly Seng Zhao.
