泉州與新羅·高麗關係歷史文化遺存

Abstract

Located on the southeast coast of Fujian Province, China, Quanzhou is one of the crucial foreign trade harbor sinan cient China. As early as the late Tang and Five Dynasties (around the 9th century), Quanzhou has had over seas trade relations and Buddhism exchanges with Silla on the Korean Peninsula. The Song Dynasty saw the hey day of the over seas communication between Quanzhou and Koryo. Thus Quanzhou’s business men played not only an active part in the economic activities but an essential role in the political, diplomatic and cultural exchanges between the Song-Dynasty China and Koryo. Since I began to study the historical ties between ancient Quanzhou and Sillia/Koryo in 2004, I have had some interesting findings. For instance, in Quanzhou there are still many mysterious historical and cultural relics relating with Silla and Koryo, which inspire me to discover more in the future. This paper illustrates the historical and cultural relics in exchanges between Quanzhou and Silla/Koryo in the following three aspects. The first part introduces the Quanzhou-Silla/Koryo relations from the Tang and Five Dynasties to the Song Dynasty, especially the economic, political, cultural and religious interaction in the overseas communication. The second part analyzes the history and current situation of some places, temples and products that name after Silla and Koryo, for example, Xinluo Cun (Silla Village), Xinluo Tang (Silla Pond), Gaoli Xiang (Koryo Lane), Gaoli Cuo (Koryo Village), Gaoli Cun (Koryo Village), Gaoli Mu (Koryo Tombs), Xinluo (Silla) Temple, Xinluo (Silla) Pine, Xinluo (Silla) Ginseng, Xinluo (Silla) Pueraria, Gaoli vegetable (cabbage), etc. The third part tells the stories about a famous monk, Master Xuefeng Yicun, from Nan’an, Quanzhou in the late Tang and Five Dynasties and his disciple Xuanna, who was from Silla and became the first abbot in Fuqing Temple. It also introduces some relevant temples such as Xuefeng Temple in Nan’an, Fuqing Temple and Zhaoqing Temple. Besides, “ZutangJi”, the Buddhist classics written in Quanzhou Zhaoqing Temple which has disappeared for about one thous and years, was found in Haiy in Temple in the south of South Korea. This is undoubtedly a strong evidence of the Buddhist exchanges between Quanzhou and Silla/Koryo.
