秦子陵及其《如意珠》传奇创作考辨——兼论新发现的《红罗记》传奇稿本

A Criticism on Qin Ziling and His Romance Ruyizhu, and Still Somewhat on the Newly Discovered Manuscript of His Another Romance Hongluoji

长期以来 ,学术界一直认为秦子陵《如意珠》传奇是明末天启年间作品。笔者通过对稿本《如意珠》的考证 ,认为秦子陵是清中后期人 ;《纳书楹曲谱补遗》所收、《今乐考证》著录的《如意珠》并非秦子陵作品 ,而是内容完全不同的无名氏同名作。秦子陵另一传奇《红罗记》稿本的被发现 ,印证和丰富了我们对于秦子陵及其传奇创作的了解。

Long since, the academic circles have usually deemed that Qin Ziling’s romance Ruyizhu(A Satisfactory Pearl) came forth in the period of Tianqi (天启) in the Late Ming dynasty. The author here confirms, by criticizing on the manuscript Ruyizhu, that Qin Ziling was a dramaturge in the middle or late Qing dyansty; that the work of same title collected in Nashuying qupu buyi(《纳书楹曲谱补遗》)was created by an anonymous writer and of a different content. The fact that Qin Ziling’s another manuscript of the romance Hongluoji(An Anecdote of the Red Skirt) has been discovered helps to confirm and enrich our knowledge of the dramaturge Qin Ziling and his romance creation.
