摘要
13—14世纪,依靠元朝无远弗届的影响力,元大都不仅成为那个时代最著名的国际大都市,而且也是世界文本书写的中心。孟高维诺以书信的方式向教皇表述他在元大都的经历,表达出他对元大都的切身观照。根据孟高维诺的书信内容,可以发现,世界各地的人们远道而来,聚集于元大都,他们既使元大都充满着世界性特征,又使这个时期的文本充满了与世界关联的内容。作为天下“风俗之枢机”的京师,元大都的世界性特征又辐射到帝国的每个角落,从而使13—14世纪的中国整体形象都充满了与世界关联的活力。
Thanks to the great influence exerted by the Yuan Dynasty,its capital city Dadu evolved into the most famous international metropolis of the 13 th-14 th Centuries and the center of writings in that era.There were a great number of splendid descriptions of Dadu in classic travel notes such as The Travels of Marco Polo and The Travels of Ibn Batutah.Giovanni da Montecorvino,the first Catholic Christian sent by the Holy See for missionary work in the Yuan Dynasty at the end of the 13 th Century,described what he did in Dadu and put forward his personal reflections on it in his letters to the Pope.Compared with the other travel notes of that time,in these letters he made no vivid description of Dadu but presented a picture of its multicultural encounters and blending of the 13 th-14 th Centuries in a more cautious and reliable way,from which more prominent authenticity and reality can be sensed.Different from reports written by missionaries such as Plano Carpini and Guillaume de Rubru-quis in the early 13 th Century and focusing on the Mongolian Empire which was engaged in expeditions and invasions,Giovanni da Montecorvino’s letters portrayed the Yuan Dynasty when the situation of borders and diplomacy was generally stable since he arrived in Dadu at the end of the 13 th Century.From Giovanni da Montecorvino’s trip to China,we can find that Dadu as a global central city of that time was very attractive to people all over the world.Concerning the writings of the 13 th-14 th Centuries,apart from the official Chinese texts and a large number of Dadu-centered writings by Chinese scholars such as Nian Xia Qu(《辇下曲》)and Xi Jin Zhi(《析津志》),Dadu was recorded and praised by people from different countries,including Giovanni da Montecorvino,Korean scholars from the Korean Peninsula,Venetian merchants across the Mediterranean and Tangier Muslims from the Strait of Gibraltar.In either“Yan Travel Records”(“燕行录”)by Korean scholars or“Journey to the East”(“东游记”)by Western missionari
