摘　　要：王玄策先后四次奉命出使天竺,足迹遍及天竺诸国、西域多地,贯通了吐蕃—尼婆罗道,维护了大唐与天竺的友好关系,促进了大唐与周边国家的多方位交流,但王玄策的这些历史功绩却几乎湮没在历史长河之中。经过数代中外学者反复钩沉稽考,多见佛籍、偏于佛事的王玄策有关史料碎片由散而聚,王玄策的历史拼图也随着史料碎片的集腋成裘而日趋清晰。王玄策的历史功绩不亚于张骞、班超、玄奘,肯定王玄策也是对大唐与天竺乃至周边国家友好交往交流的肯定。Wang Xuance was sent to Tianzhu (ancient India)four times,leaving a lasting impact across the Tianzhu kingdoms and many regions in the Western Regions.However,his historical achievements have been largely overlooked and nearly lost in the vast expanse of history.The records of Wang Xuance are mainly found in Buddhist scriptures and primarily focus on his contributions to Buddhist activities.Over the years,through repeated research by several generations of Chinese and foreign scholars,scattered historical materials about Wang Xuance have gradually been compiled.As these fragments have come together,a clearer picture of his accomplishments has emerged.Wang Xuance's contributions are no less significant than those of Zhang Qian,Ban Chao,or Xuanzang.Recognizing Wang Xuance is not only an acknowledgment of his personal achievements but also a celebration of the friendly exchanges and communication between the Tang Dynasty and Tianzhu,as well as with neighboring countries.
