“和珅压制庄述祖”辨——从艾尔曼教授的误读看史料运用

The Suppressing of He Shen towards Zhuang Shuzu-On the use of Historical Materials of Prof. Elman

艾尔曼教授认为庄存与晚年研究今文经学,是为了反对和珅专权。其重要证据之一,是存与之侄述祖曾经在殿试中受到和珅的压制。本文通过考察艾尔曼的相关引文,并依据《清实录》等材料,认为和珅并无必要也没有可能在这次殿试中压制庄述祖,压制述祖的其实是阿桂。

Based on relevant quotations of Prof. Elman and Qing Shi,this paper holds the opinion that He Shen was both unnecessary and impossible to suppress Zhuang Shuzu in the imperial examination. It was A Gui that suppressed Zhuang.
