摘　　要：中国古代的守丧制度是指服丧者在丧期内的行为规范,是丧服制度的重要内容。守丧制度是儒家"孝道"的重要体现,其基本要求就是尽"哀"。守丧制度在整个封建社会为统治阶级所重视和倡导,并上升到法律高度保证其在社会生活中强制推行。这在提倡孝道、淳化民风、稳定社会秩序方面虽有不可低估的作用,但也带来了愚孝愚忠的封建思想毒素、助长社会虚浮之风、在一定程度上削弱生产力发展的负面影响。The system of keeping vigil beside the dead in ancient China refers to the norms of behavior of the mourners while in mourning and is an important exhibition of the Confucian filial duty, whose basic requirement is a full expression of mournfulness. The ruling class of the feudal China advocated and set great store by this system and enforced its implementation through law. It is true that this system played an undeniable role in popularizing the filial duty and morals and in stabilizing the society, but it also popularized the blind piety and devotion of the feudal society and its trait of superficiality with negative effects on the development of productivity.
