关于李鸿章家书的真伪辨析问题

The differentiation between the genuine and the false of Li Hongzhang's letters to or from his family

共和书局本《李鸿章家书》中相当一部分信件仅从内容上即可考知破绽百出 ,伪迹明显 ,因而有理由怀疑全书之伪 ,但也有些信件又是仅从内容上不能证伪的 ,需要进而弄清该版本家书的编刊情况 ,而到目前为止 ,尚未见有于此作出明确具体、令人信服的考证者 ,在这种情况下 ,对该书中全部信件之伪也只能是“怀疑”而已 ,遽下定论证据和理由尚不充分 ,需作进一步的考究。

Judging from the contents,it can been seen that a considerable number of letters included in Li Hongzhang's letters to or from His Family are false.But some of them can only be identified by their contents,and the printing and publishing of the book must be further studied. Up to now,no convincing textual research has been made,so further efforts must be made to reach a correct eonlusion.
