1、汕頭大學碩士研究生學位論文 從新莽銅嘉量看中國度量衡制度的發(fā)展I摘 要中國的傳統(tǒng)造物設計智慧由來已久，與中國五千年的歷史文化同根同源，為什么曾經(jīng)首屈一指的匠人造物設計智慧沒有一步步地隨同社會的向前推進而被承傳和繼續(xù)發(fā)揚光大，反而沒落于封建社會的統(tǒng)治之中，反思為什么中國的現(xiàn)代設計不能立足于本土之上，而是以學習西方的設計思想、與西方設計同質化為榮。中國如何從傳統(tǒng)造物文化中汲取營養(yǎng)，從而創(chuàng)造出有中國本土化特色的工藝文化，這是一個值得當今所有人

2、深思的問題。新莽時期介于西漢和東漢之間，在歷史上向來是個被眾口謾罵的時期，王莽也被大眾偏見地視為禍根毒瘤，不被正視。王莽是否真是一個敗家的亂臣賊子，我們應該將其行為還原到當時的歷史社會背景下從而做出客觀公正的判斷。王莽在新朝時期的一系列復古改制的行動當中，其它改革措施都因為觸犯了達官顯貴的利益而被強烈反對，進而絲毫未取得應有成效。唯有度量衡的改革取得了空前的成功，并且度量衡理論制度的完善在歷史上世代被奉為圭臬，一脈相承，直到中國幾千年的

3、封建制度土崩瓦解才被國際上通用的萬國公制所取代。歷史上度量衡制度最完善的新莽時期，有一件度量衡標準器——新莽銅嘉量應運而生，它被視為度量衡史上之瑰寶，匠人集體最高智慧之結晶。即一件量器上，集“龠、合、升、斗、斛”五量于一身，相互之間成倍比關系，2 龠=1 合，10 合=1 升，10 升=1 斗，10斗=1 斛，并且根據(jù)器物銘文上所設定的尺寸，能夠求出長度、容量和重量單位量值，即以度數(shù)審其容。追本溯源，它巧妙的設計、科學的思想、考究的材質

4、、獨創(chuàng)的冶煉方法完全承傳于戰(zhàn)國時期工匠們設計創(chuàng)造的度量衡標準器——栗氏量，讓今人不禁驚嘆在兩千多年前，古人的設計概念已如此超前，制作工藝如此高超，制造的器物與現(xiàn)今相比，從思想觀念方面來說，有過之而無不及。栗氏量確立標準的方式，又源于古代度量衡標準確立——黃鐘累黍之說。通過這種方式層層抽絲剝繭，向前推進，能夠窺探出古人傳統(tǒng)造物的原始設計智慧，不斷地通過實踐經(jīng)驗的積累，以及隨著社會的發(fā)展，演變成科學合理的度量衡理論體系。本文將中國度量衡制度
