本文擬藉古文獻探討漢代經學史上之「孔子素王說」的形成與發展主向。全文含四部份。壹：〈前言〉，說明本文的研究動機，並概介相關的研究成果。貳：〈孔子素王說的形成〉，「素王」一詞起於莊子後學；「孔子素王說」屬公羊家之云，為漢代經學的核心理念之一。本章分兩方面說明兩者之間的關係。先考察孔子在先秦的地位，再探究「素王」成為孔子專稱的過程。參：〈孔子素王說的發展〉，說明公羊孔子素王說的主要發展是緯書的孔子觀，而緯書又影響著後期的公羊家。在經過以上的討論後，本文所得到的結論是：（一）孔子在先秦的崇高地位與戰國時代的黃老道家思潮，使公羊的孔子觀與黃老道家的素王說連屬為一。（二）孔子素王說的主要發展見於緯書，此亦足以說明緯書乃漢代今文經學之支與流衍。
