2006年出版北宋《天聖令》最後的十卷,對唐宋史研究是極為珍貴的史料。就法史資料而言,可作為法制溯源,由《天聖令》上溯至唐朝前期諸令典,乃至日本《大寶令》、《養老令》等。就法史上的意義而言,具有政治的法制化、王化、教化的意義,以及「唐宋變革」論的下限。
The last ten volumes of Tian-Sheng Rules of the Northern Song Dynasty, published in 2006, are very valuable historical materials for the historical research of the Tang- Song period. As far as the Legal historical materials are concerned, it could be used as the source of the development of China’s legal institution. The origin of the Tian-Sheng Rules could be traced back to those Rules and Legal Codes of the early Tang times and also Taihouryou (Taihou Rules) and Yourouryou (Yourou Rules) issued in Japan during the Eighth Century. As for the significance of the legal history, the Tian-Sheng Rules indicated the legal institutionization of the political activities and also performed the educational function of rules and codes of the time. It also provides us a very clear-cut lower time limit of the so called “Tang-Song Transformation” Hypothesis.
