记得宋代爱国诗人陆游曾写过“古人学问无遗力,少壮功夫老始成”那样发人深省的诗句,也曾读到过唐代大诗人杜甫所说“但看古来盛名下,终日坎(土禀)缠其身”的名句。数年来经过对一些学者的认真了解和观察,似乎这两者之间果然贯串着某种微妙的道理,而且往往集中体现在一个人的身上。例如年逾古稀的我国陶瓷考古专家与书画家叶喆民教授,就是一位晚岁有成,驰名中外的老学者。一 一波三折的学术历程与不一而足的代表著作 叶喆民号丹枫,满族人,1924年7月出生于北京一个没落的书香世家。他的姓氏即“叶赫纳兰”(又称“叶赫那拉”)的简称,乃是清初著名词人纳兰成(姓)德的后代。他的父亲叶麟趾是早在清末时期即赴日本留学“窑业”(硅酸盐工业)的前辈学者,民国初期曾创办“北京瓷业公司”,后来为传播现代制瓷技术,专门致力于培养人才的教育工作,他在北平大学及国立艺专担任陶瓷课程的同时,还另于家中自建小窑炉进行过古陶瓷的科学试验,并赴南北各地考察名窑、采集瓷片,以为改进现代陶瓷的参考。一生中除了几部有关陶瓷工业的著述外,他的名著《古今中外陶瓷汇编》一书,现已成为中外陶瓷考古学界经常引用的重要文献。就在这本书中叶麟 I remember that the Song Dynasty patriotic poet Lu You wrote “the ancients knowledgelessness, young martial arts old into” thought-provoking verse, but also read the Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu said, “But to see the ancient name, the end of the ridge (intrinsic) Wrapped around the body ”famous. After years of careful understanding and observation by some scholars, it seems that there really runs some subtle truth between the two and tends to be concentrated on one person. For example, the ancient Chinese porcelain archeology expert and painter Ye Zhemin professor, is a successful, well-known Chinese and foreign scholars. A twists and turns of the academic history and a representative works of thought Ye Zhemin Danfeng, Manchu people, born in July 1924 in Beijing, a declining scholar family. The short name of his last name, “Yehna Nalan” (also known as “Yehnara”), is the descendant of Germany’s distinguished scholar Nalan Cheng. His father, Ye Tien, was a veteran scholar who went abroad to study “Kiln” (Silicate Industry) as early as the late Qing Dynasty. He founded “Beijing Porcelain Company” in the early Republic of China and later devoted himself to disseminating modern porcelain technology At the same time as his ceramics course at Peking University and the National Arts College, he also conducted scientific experiments on ancient ceramics in his own small kiln and inspected famous kilns in the north and south, collecting porcelain pieces, In order to improve the reference of modern ceramics. In his life, apart from several works on the ceramic industry, his famous book, Compilation of Ancient and Modern Chinese and Foreign Ceramics, has become an important reference often cited by Chinese and foreign ceramic archeology circles.
