先秦文献中“先子”凡5见,都是儿辈敬称已故的父亲(包括公公),而没有泛称已故的长辈或祖先的。本文对《左传》和《孟子》中的两例“先子”作了详细考辨。“先君子”在先秦典籍中2见,其中《荀子》一例有疑问,《礼记》一例也是敬称自己已故的父亲,而非祖父。“先子”“先君子”中的“子”和“君子”都是对自己父亲的敬称。

Pre-Qin literature, “first son ” where 5 see, are the elders respect the deceased father (including father-in-law), but not generally referred to the late elders or ancestors. This article makes a detailed examination of two cases of “first son” in Zuo Zhuan and Mencius. “Xianjunzi ” in the Pre-Qin classics 2 see, of which “Xunzi” a case of doubt, “Book of Rites” is also an example of his late father, rather than grandfather. “Son ” “gentleman ” “child ” and “gentleman ” are the respect of their own father.
