内容摘要:法国国家图书馆官网公布了27件西夏文文献,它们是伯希和从敦煌莫高窟北区发掘而为《法藏敦煌西夏文文献》漏刊的材料。这27件文献中有17件可以给出准确的定名,有4件可据内容给出初步拟题,另有6件因残存字数太少,尚无法辨识。这些材料虽然多是些残叶、残片,但也有其他藏卷中未曾见过的孤本文献,更有多种新见校译本,同时还有一定的缀合及补缺价值。这批材料的编号不符合馆藏编号原则,出土洞窟也不明确,存在一定的问题,通过与《法藏敦煌西夏文文献》部分材料的缀合与比较,其编号和出土洞窟是可以部分解决的。

Abstract:The National Library of France recently published twenty-seven manuscripts written in Tangut script on its official website that were unearthed from the Northern area caves at the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes by Pelliot, but which were not included in the French Collection of Tangut Manuscripts from Dunhuang. Of these manuscripts, seventeen can be accurately identified and four can be given preliminary titles based on their contents, while the other six must remain unidentified because only a few words of their text have been preserved to the present day. Though most of these manuscripts are fragmental, they do contain some text that is not included in other collections of Dunhuang documents and much of the translation content used for proofreading found in the documents is entirely new. For this reason, these documents are extremely helpful for supplementing and splicing together similar Dunhuang documents. Some issues remain, however; for example, the serial numbers on these documents do not conform to the system of numbering generally used for such collections, and it is unknown which cave contained the documents. By splicing and comparing the text of these fragments with that of other documents from the French Collection of Tangut Manuscripts from Dunhuang, this research resolves some of the issues raised by the discovery of these manuscripts.

這里所说的敦煌出土西夏文献,是指1908年伯希和在敦煌莫高窟随藏经洞敦煌文献一同带走的北区石窟出土文献之一。这批西夏文献材料的大部分于2007年由上海古籍出版社结集为《法藏敦煌西夏文文献》刊布。所谓新见材料,是指同在敦煌北区出土,但为《法藏敦煌西夏文文献》所漏刊、近由法国国家图书馆在其官网(http://gallica.bnf.fr)上刊布的西夏文献。全部材料共27件,编号Pelliot xixia 1—28,缺Pelliot xixia 2。这27件材料《法藏敦煌西夏文文献·序言》曾有提及:
法国国家图书馆原载录西夏文藏品217件,后继续查找出未编号的27件,以及伯希和1938年在中国购买的经折装《华严经》1件,木板写本1件,共著录了246件文献;对于西夏文材料,有百济康义编目的未刊稿,大致包括《华严经》《二十一种行》等等……[1]
