论类书的目录学演变

Encyclopedia's Evolution in Bibliography

千余年来,类书在目录学中的位置不断发生变化,先是被载入史部,后又被置于子部,甚至还有不少学者提议于四部之外为其另立一部;即使在子部中,类书先是被归入"杂家",后又被置于"事类"、"类书类"、"类事类"之中。类书在目录学中的演变根源于不同时代的类书发展状况,更体现了古人对类书的认知与评价。

The position of encyclopedia in bibliography continually changed in the past thousand years. It was firstly placed in the history section, and then placed in philosophy section. Some scholars even proposed to place it outside four-part. Even in the philosophy section, encyclopedia was firstly placed in the Eclectics, and then placed in Shi class, Encyclopedia class and Leishi class. Encyclopedia＇ s evolution in bibliography originated from the development situations in different times, which also embodied ancients＇ cognition and evaluation about it.
