1. Build a solid foundation knowledge: First of all, you need to have a certain level of ancient Chinese, including reading, writing and understanding. In addition, it is essential to know the history, culture, philosophy and social system of ancient China.
2. Reading classical literature: Reading is the basis of studying classical philology. Starting from pre-Qin poems such as The Book of Songs and Songs of the South, I gradually read historical books such as Historical Records, Han Shu, Zi Tongzhi Jian, and Confucian and Taoist classics such as The Analects of Confucius, Mencius and Zhuangzi. In the process of reading, we should learn to analyze the structure, content and significance of the article and cultivate our critical thinking ability.
3. Learn the theory of philology: understand the basic concepts, methods and research fields of classical philology, such as edition, collation, bibliography and epigraphy. You can master this knowledge by reading relevant textbooks, papers and monographs.
4. Participate in academic activities: actively participate in academic conferences, lectures and seminars related to classical philology, exchange academic views and research results with other scholars, and broaden their horizons.
5. Hands-on practice: In the learning process, we should pay attention to practical operations, such as sorting, collating and annotating ancient books. Through practical operation, we can deepen our understanding and application of classical philology theory.
6. In-depth research: choose your own research direction, such as the study of classical literature in a certain historical period, a certain genre or a certain topic. Under the guidance of the tutor, conduct in-depth research and write academic papers and monographs.
