Tang Liu Classics - Tang Liu Classics

Based on the government system of the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty (713-741), China, this book compiles and classifies the history of successive dynasties, legal codes concerning official duties, and imperial edicts. It has 30 volumes. It was compiled by Emperor Xuanzong and annotated by Li Linfu and others. The imperial edict to compile it was given in 722, and it was finally completed in 738. Because this book is based on the 719 law code, there are some differences with the 737 law, which was the current system at the time of completion, and it is suspected that this was why it was not forcibly implemented. The content is modeled after the Zhou Rites (Ceremonies of Zhou), and is divided into the Three Masters and Three Gongs, the Three Ministry, One Tai, Nine Temples, Five Superintendents, and One Twelve Wei. It is one of the basic historical materials for research into the lost Tang laws. It was published in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, but only about half of the Song edition remains. The most convenient editions are the Japanese edition edited by Konoe Iehiro, or the Hiroike edition, which was revised by Hiroike Senkuro and added kunkan annotations to the Konoe edition and revised by Uchida Tomoo in the Song edition and elsewhere.

中国、唐代開元期（713～741）の官制を基準として、歴代の沿革、職掌に関する律令格式(りつれいかくしき)、勅を分類編集したもの。30巻。玄宗勅撰(げんそうちょくせん)、李林甫(りりんぽ)ら注。722年に編纂(へんさん)の勅命が下され、738年にようやく完成した。本書は719年度の法典に依拠したため、完成時の現行制度である737年度の法と異なる点があり、そのため強行施行されなかった疑いがある。内容は『周礼(しゅらい)』に擬して、三師三公、三省、一台、九寺、五監、一二衛などに分かれる。亡佚(ぼういつ)した唐令研究の基本史料の一つである。宋(そう)、明(みん)、清(しん)代に出版されたが、宋版は全体の約半分しか現存していない。利用には日本の近衛家煕(このえいえひろ)校訂本、または近衛本に広池千九郎が訓点を施し、内田智雄が宋版その他で補訂を加えた広池(ひろいけ)本が便利である。
