朱駿聲是漢語詞義研究的權威，他編撰的《說文通訓定聲》（下稱「《定聲》」）是漢語詞義研究的經典著作。過去學者研究《定聲》或朱氏的語言學觀點，往往只取用《定聲》書內材料為據，視野受局限。事實上，朱駿聲著述宏富，除《定聲》外，據近人劉躍進統計，朱氏尚有著述百餘種，當中不乏朱駿聲說解經典的作品，如《六十四卦經解》、《尚書古注便讀》、《儀禮經注一隅》、《春秋左傳識小錄》、《離騷補注》等。《定聲》是辭書，取《定聲》記載的字典義（即「說字訓詁」）與朱氏在注解經籍時所下的訓詁（即「解文訓詁」）相較，兩者對同一典籍文字的說釋卻每有不同，如《定聲》釋「贊」為「見」，《儀禮經注一隅》卻云「贊，佐也」。本計劃比較朱駿聲說字與解文兩種訓詁的異同，從中觀察朱氏「說字」和「解文」的不同原則，並補充《定聲》未備的訓詁材料，讓朱氏建構的詞義系統可更完整地呈現。這項工作對《說文通訓定聲》、朱駿聲語言學成就以及漢語詞義的研究均有助益。
Zhu Junsheng is one of the Qing-era authorities on Chinese semantics and author of Shuowen Tongxun Dingsheng (hereafter “Dingsheng”), his magnum opus in the field. In the past, scholars who study Dingsheng or Zhu’s linguistic views often restrict themselves to material found within Dingsheng, therefore limiting to a certain extent the breadth and depth of their perspectives. In fact, Zhu is a prolific academic whose scholarly outputs are many. Apart from Dingsheng, Zhu’s entire corpus of outputs as surveyed in recent times by Liu Yuejin numbers well above one hundred, including many treatises with exegeses on the Confucian canon and other classics, such as Liushisi Gua Jingjie, Shangshu Guzhu Biandu, Yili Jingzhu Yiyu, Chunqiu Zuozhuan Zhi Xiaolu, Li Sao Buzhu, etc. Whereas Dingsheng is a lexicographical work; when we take the root (or etymological) meaning as glossed by Zhu in Dingsheng and compare it with or contrast it against his philological exegeses provided as interpretations to individual classics, we often find that the root meaning and the ad hoc meaning found in context are quite different. For example, Dingsheng would gloss the character “贊” (zàn) as ‘to see’, but in Yili Jingzhu Yiyu, Zhu would provide ‘to aid’ as the exegetic interpretation for the same character. The study proposed herein will examine his etymological analyses of Chinese characters and words by comparing them with or contrasting them against how he interprets the same set of characters and words in context through the philological exegeses he gives. Through this work, we shall extrapolate the principles behind his philological scholarship, all the while introducing philological material found in his classical treatises, to allow Zhu’s semantic network to be fully revealed. The proposed study will not only deepen existing understanding of Dingsheng and its value, but also broadening our appreciation of Zhu Junsheng’s linguistic legacy specifically and the wider field of Chinese semantics in general.
