從吐魯番出土文書看高昌王國

Abstract

本文以吐魯番新出土的高昌王國時期的五百餘件文書為基礎，對高昌王國產生的歷史背景、居民的構成及王國的政權基礎、普遍使用的語言文字、文化風格及宗教信仰諸方面，重新審視了歷史上的高昌王國，訂正《周書．高昌傳》中的一些不實記載，認為高昌王國並非化外的異域，而是華夏之邦，是中國文化傳承下來的一個地方王國政權。

This thesis studies some questions as follows: historical background, resident structure, regime base, language, cultural custom and religion of Gaochang kingdom, which is based on 500 new Turfan manuscripts.
