Reading the Epitaph Record of Ink Shadow in Writing
There are a collection of precious epitaph rubbings in the Museum of Chinese Characters,of which 110 are selected and interpreted in Ink Shadow in Writing,some of which are the first to be published.Their literature,historical materials,language materials,and other values are prominent.The overall level of in-terpretation in this book is relatively high,but due to factors such as incomplete pictures,erroneous customs,and allusions,the problem of missing and incorrect recording of text is still serious,which is extremely unfavor-able for the scientific and effective use of materials.In order to restore the original appearance of the literature and provide reference for the interpretation and organization of inscriptions,as well as reliable empirical support for the study of Chinese characters,research and correction will be conducted on four types of fractal characters:near characters,classic characters,difficult characters,and incomplete characters through comparing the epitaph rubbings and selecting typical cases of missing or incorrect characters in the book.
