兵权谋家《公孙鞅》与法家《商君》在篇数上差了两篇,其文本情况也可能有诸多差异,但其中的内容应该绝大部分是重合的,其之所以会被重复著录,可能是由于两者的版本不同。“商子”的出现可能和经、子学术的分化以及目录学中分类方法的变化有关。《商君书》也可能在魏晋南北朝时期或唐初被重新整合。根据一些新材料,其开始缺佚的时间推定为韩愈之后的唐代后期。后来虽然发现了一些似乎是佚文的语句,但它们属于误引的可能性较大。

This paper, on the basis of data collection, aims to probe into the issues of the circulation, completion, number, title, folk tales of the Book of Lord Shang and the origin of Gongsun Yang. The author also suggests that,although Gongsun Yang, a military writing, differs from the legalism works of Lord Shang in the number of chapters, and there may be many differences in the text, most of the contents should be identical, and the reason why they are recorded repeatedly may be because of the different versions. The appearance of Shang Zi may be related to the differentiation of Sutras and subtexts, and the change of classification methods in bibliography. The Book of Lord Shang may also have been re-integrated during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern dynasties or the early Tang dynasty. According to some new materials, the time when it began to be lost is presumed to be in the late Tang dynasty after Han Yu. Although some seemingly unknown statements were found in later, they were more likely to be misquoted.
