    《史記》是中國的正史鼻祖、散文大宗,但司馬遷卻自謂其作史接周、孔,「繼春秋」。因此,《史記》與《春秋》的關係,遂變成一個重要、有爭論且難解的老問題。本研究計畫約縮研究範圍,直指問題核心,主要探討司馬遷所說的是哪一部《春秋》?何人所作?以及《史記》究竟如何「繼春秋」?此一問題之探,需要對《史記》與《春秋》同具深入的理解,特別是春秋公羊。Shih-chi has been known as the origin of Chinese standard histories and a classic of prose for a long time. But its author Symachian claimed that the root of what he did was the spirits of Zhou-gung (周公) and Confucius, and his book was a follower of Chun-chiou( 春秋). Therefore the relation between Shih-chi and Chun-chiou has constantly been an important open question without any identical answer. Now in this plan, only the keys of all difficult problems are aimed at so that actual progress would be made. Essentially three questions will be discussed one after another: Which Chunchiou is the one to be followed by Shih-chi? Who is the author of the Chun-chiou? How was Shih-chi written to follow it? I think a successful research about these questions will deeply depend on a comprehension of Shihchi as well as of Chun-chiou, especially the interpretations of Chun-chiou from Gungyang( 公羊) school
