《旗亭记》版本初探

A Study on Versions of Qitingji

《旗亭记》为乾隆年间文学家金兆燕所作,该传奇的文学艺术性和舞台效果,在当时都产生了比较大的影响。扬州盐运使卢见曾参与了修改工作,并且为其题写序言,从上海图书馆和北京图书馆发现了五种不同的版本。这五个版本的正文内容、编排体例以及眉评等都有不同,从对几个不同版本的比较分析可知,收藏于北图、标注"清乾隆二十四年卢氏雅雨堂刻本"的版本是最早的。

Qitingji was written by Jin Zhaoyan, a writer during the reign of Emperor Qianlong, Qing Dynasty. The literary artistry and theatrics of this poetic drama exerted great influences at that time. Lu Jian, the commissioner of Yangzhou salt trans- portation participated in the modification and wrote the preface for the book. Five different versions were found in Shanghai Li- brary and Beijing Library. It can be seen from the analysis of the five versions that the block-printed edition by Lushi Yayutang in the 24th year of Emperor Qianglong＇ s reign and stored in Beijing Library was the first edition.
