摘要
传统博物学是中国古人关于自然与社会的知识基础,其知识图景包括观察者、观察对象以及观察的范围和表述方式,体现的是社会和文化精神的变迁.宋朝时花卉的人工培育、种植进入繁盛期,品种愈出愈奇,分布渐趋广泛.可以说,两宋时期发生的转变将中国花卉文化史划分为唐至北宋和南宋至明清两个时间段.四十余种花卉专谱在这个社会大背景下诞生.北宋的花卉谱录主要为牡丹谱和芍药谱;而南宋以菊谱、梅谱、兰谱为主.从传统博物学的视域来考论时人博物知识的穷理精神,揭示两宋士人在不同境遇下识别、观察、认知花卉,进而在社会思潮逐渐"向内转"的过程中两宋士人群体撰写了不同于西方自然史的花卉"博物志",呈现出时人多识以求、博物不感、与自然和谐共生的精神.
