一关于中国文字的起源,在战国以来的两千多年中,一直为学术界所关注,归纳起来,前人的研究主要涉及了两个方面的问题:一是文字的创始人以及他们所处的时代。战国、秦以至两汉,人们多遵从“仓颉作书”的传说,魏晋以降,学者又提出了“伏羲氏造书契”的见解。有关两者所处的年代,说法并不统一。汉代学者多以仓颉为黄帝史官,汉末以后,学者逐渐把仓颉的时代提前,或说与伏羲同时,或说在伏羲之前。

As for the origins of Chinese characters, it has always been the concern of academics in the two thousand years since the Warring States. In summary, previous studies mainly involved two issues: First, the authors of the texts and their place Era. The Warring States, Qin and even the Han dynasties, people follow the legend of “Cang-jie as a book”, Wei and Jin down, scholars have proposed “Fu Xi’s book contract ” opinion. The age of the two in which the argument is not uniform. Han dynasty scholars Cangjie more for the Yellow Emperor historian, late Han, scholars gradually Cangjie era ahead of time, or with Fu Xi at the same time, or in front of Fu Xi.
