再论《金瓶梅》崇祯本系统各本之间的关系

Revisiting the Relationship Between Various Congzhen Versions of Jinpingmei

本文先以实证,列举“内阁本”或有意简略,或无意脱漏及多有错刻的现象,再从序跋、图象、眉批等不同角度论证了它不可能是崇祯本系统中的“正头香主”,而是二字行眉批本的翻刻本;同时兼论了崇祯本是词话本的评改本。

First this paper illustrates with examples the phenomenon that 'the Cabinet Version of Jinpingmei ' is either intentionally simplified, or that some content has been unintentionally left out and that the version contains wrongly engraved words. Next, the paper proves from the different perspectives of examining the preface, postscript, pictures, notes and commentaries at the top of pages, etc. that the version can not possibly be the best of the various Congzhen versions of Jinpingmei , and that it is the reengraved version of a version with two lines of notes and commentaries at the top of a page. Simultaneously, the paper confirms that the Congzhen version is the revised version with comments in the from of verse.
