《西游记》作者诸说考辨(上)

A Verification on the Author of Journey to the West

综合学界研究成果,《西游记》的作者除了人们所熟知的吴承恩说之外,主要还有邱处机说、许白云说、宗泐说、鲁府朱观火定说、周王府朱睦柛说、樊山王府集体创作说、陈元之说、华阳洞天主人说、李春芳说、史真人弟子说、尹真人弟子说、唐新庵说、唐皋说、阎希言师徒说、胶东人蓝田说等。本文对这些说法一一考证,证明除吴承恩说之外,其它说法都因为缺乏有力的证据而难以成立。

According to the previous researches,it is known that the author of Journey to the West is still in controversy,for some scholars claim that the author should be others rather than Wu Chengen,such as Qiu Chuji,or Xu Baiyun,or Zong Le and so on.This paper tries to prove that Wu Chengen is the real author of the novel.
