论胡宗宪在《筹海图编》编撰中的重要作用

An Analysis of HU Zongxian' Role in the compilation of the Chou Hai Tu Bian

现行《筹海图编》共十三卷。它的编撰过程以郑若曾入胡宗宪幕府为界分为两个阶段。郑若曾在未入幕府之前已经完成了《筹海图编》前七卷部分内容的编撰,而前七卷的大部分内容及后六卷完成于胡宗宪幕府之中。在《筹海图编》第二阶段的编撰中,虽然郑若曾仍然担任着资料收集和执笔撰写等主要编撰工作,但幕府主人胡宗宪在这一阶段编撰中也发挥了重要的作用。他不仅组织其幕府成员共同辅翼郑若曾完成《筹海图编》的编撰,并最终促成了此书最终的出版刊行,而且还为《筹海图编》后期编撰特别是《筹海图编》的后六卷内容的编撰贡献了自己的思路。因此,在不否认郑若曾为《筹海图编》主要编撰者的前提下,胡宗宪的编撰功绩不应该被埋没,同时"胡宗宪辑议"这种署名方式也是有一定的道理的。

Chou Hai Tu Bian consists of thirteen volumes.The compilation process of Chou Hai Tu Bian is divided into two stages.Zheng Ruozeng had written the first seven volumes before he came into HU Zongxian＇bakufu.The large part of seven-volume and the whole last six volumes were written in HU Zongxian＇bakufu.In the second compilation stage,Zheng Ruozeng was still the major editor in collecting materials and writing,but HU Zongxian also played an important role in the compilation.HU Zongxian asked his staffs to assist Zheng Ruozeng and paid for the publication.Above all,the last six volumes were written under his guidance.So,the printing of ＂collected and compiled by HU Zongxian＂ is reasonable,if we don＇t deny the fact that Zheng Ruozeng is the main editor of this book.
