德国汉堡大学所藏两册《永乐大典》的流传

On Circulation of Two Volumes of the Yongle Canon in the University of Hamburg

德国汉堡大学曾经收藏的两册《永乐大典》,是在1912-1914年间由商衍鎏与福兰阁从中国购入的。1937年7月前,袁同礼与颜复礼达成图书交换协议,汉堡大学拟将它们送归国立北平图书馆。但是,因第二次世界大战的影响,它们大约在1950-1957年之间才被寄到身在美国的袁同礼手中,与那批移藏美国国会图书馆的国立北平图书馆善本书汇聚在一起。1965年,它们随那批善本书一起被运回了台湾,归台湾汉学研究中心代管,寄存在台北"故宫博物院"书库,直至现在。

Two volumes of the Yongle Canon （ Volume 975 - 976,10483 - 484 ）, which were once owned by the University of Hamburg, had been purchased from China by Shang Chengliu and Otto Franke in 1912 - 1914. Yuan Tongli and Fritz Jager reached an agreement of the exchange of books before July 1937, so the two volumes of the Yongle Carton would be sent back to the National Library of Peiping. After World War II, they were sent to Yuan Tongli and put together with the rare books of the National Library of Peiping which had been deposited at the Library of Congress. These rare books, with the two volumes, were back to the Center for Chi- nese Studies in 1965. Now they are deposited at the library of the Palace Museum in Taibei.
