摘要
火葬在中国的历史十分悠久,原始社会时已有,直到五代十国时期,火葬逐渐盛行。两宋时期火葬最为盛行,它的盛行触动了中国原有的封建统治基础———儒学礼教,因此,维护传统的宋代统治者以及儒学、理学的代言人对火葬进行了诸多的禁止和阻挠。但是,在种种原因的影响下,火葬之风却越演越烈,一直延续到明朝。本文将对两宋火葬盛行的情况、原因,两宋统治者对待火葬的态度、禁除火葬的措施以及火葬习俗所带来的各种影响作一简述。
The cremation has a long history in China, which has already occurred during the primitive society, and became prevalent increasingly until the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period. It was most popular in South and North Song Dynasty, which touched the original feudal rule foundation of China-- Confucianism. Therefore, in order to maintain the tradition, the rulers of South and North Song Dynasty, and the representatives of Confucianism and Neo--Confucianism did much to prohibit and obstruct cremation. However, under the influence of a variety of reasons, the wind of cremation was intensified and continued until Ming Dynasty. The reason and situation of the cremation of South and North Song Dynasty, the attitude of the rulers of South and North Song Dynasty towards cremation, the measures of cremation prohibition, and the impact of cremation are narrated in this paper.
