商周甲骨文献中文字排列的特征及其成因

从现存的商周甲骨文献来看,我国早期文字记录的排列特征是以右为首,竖行刻写。这样一种传统记录格式是当时人类社会生产、思想观念和文化发展等共同起作用的产物,是中华民族追求务实、追求科学、追求文明的反映,它对后世的汉字记录方式的发展影响深远。

On the Literal Arrangment of the Scriptions on Bones or Tortoise Shells

Considering the scriptions on bones or tortoise shells in the Shang zhou Dynasty, the primary method of literal record was characteristic of the engravement of the first Chinese character on the top of the dexter side, which proceeded to inscribe vertically the other Chinese characters on the bones or the shells. That traditional pattern of literal record had resulted from the long term interactions between social production and ideologies and cultural improvement, and had reflected the old Chinese spirits to pursue pragmactism, science and civilization. Finally, it also has been influencing deeply the next development of the Chinese record.
