本文從地方請祀和朝廷議祀孔廟人選的互動角度，重建楊時在明代從祀的歷程，藉此說明地方社會現實需求和道統敘事文本變動對於朝廷孔廟議案的影響。楊時在明代從祀的歷程可以由正統十三年、成化元年、弘治八年三次請祀，劃分為三個階段。第一次請祀由福建地方官發起，但未被朝廷重視，事情無果而終。第二次請祀發起者是浙江蕭山籍學者魏驥，他因在家鄉主持興修湘湖水利，選擇以推動湘湖附近「楊長官祠」祀主楊時入祀孔廟的方式，來爭取政府對湘湖工程的支持。魏驥憑藉其個人威望和廣泛人脈，促成楊時獲得在家鄉設專祠祭祀的禮遇，從祀議案因此出現重大進展。第三次請祀的主導者是福建的地方士人，他們在朝廷執政者支持下，於弘治八年成功將楊時入祀孔廟。屢次因無影響巨大的釋經專著而被拒絕入祀的楊時最終從祀孔廟，給當時面臨同樣從祀境遇的其他儒者提供了成功先例，為嘉靖九年孔廟從祀以「明道之儒」取代「傳經之儒」變動奠定基礎。本文還討論了明代程朱學者楊廉在請祀楊時過程中，面對眾人均以朱熹對楊時的評價來爭論其能否從祀的情勢，通過選擇性摘抄朱熹語錄來重新闡釋道統系譜標準之作《伊洛淵源錄》的方式，證明楊時乃二程真傳，為楊時從祀張本，而楊廉此舉的長遠目的，則是為薛瑄從祀鋪路。由此可知，除被題請者文集、年譜之外，道統敘事文本的變動亦是推動儒者從祀孔廟的一個重要途徑。最後本文強調，若將孔廟從祀與地方社會聯繫起來考量，可以擴大孔廟從祀的研究視野。

This article focuses on the process through which Yang Shi, a famous Neo-Confucian of the Song dynasty, was enshrined in the Confucian Temple during the Ming dynasty. This article divides the process into three different stages. Initial failure during the first stage forced supporters to rebuild Yang's relics in Fujian Province. In the second stage Wei Ji suggested the court enshrine Yang in the Confucian Temple in order to acquire official support for a water conservancy project in Zhejiang Province. The strong influence of the retired dignitary Wei Ji forced the court to compromise on a special local shrine for Yang in Fujian. This case tells us that the interests of local society could influence official discussion of Confucian Temple proposals. In the final stage, Yang was enshrined into the Confucian Temple in 1495. The process took so long because of Yang's lack of far-reaching work on classical learning, which was the universally accepted standard for enshrinement at that time. Placing Yang's spiritual tablet in the Confucian Temple shook this standard. But a famous Cheng-Zhu follower, Yang Lian, positioned Yang as the only disciple who accepted the Cheng brothers' theory in his ”Yiluo yuanyuan lu”, thus promoting the transmission of the Way. Yang Lian hoped that by supporting Yang Shi's enshrinement, he could help Xue Xuan's supporters promote Xue's claim to enshrinement. Xue's enshrinement had also been blocked due to lack of far-reaching work classical learning. But if Yang could earn sacrifices in the Confucian Temple, so could Xue. This case indicates that compilation of the genealogy of the Way became an alternative method for getting support in debates over candidates for enshrinement in the Confucian Temple.
