董说《西游补》的版本、序跋考辩

Exploring the Editions and the Prefaces and Postscripts of Dong Shuo's The Hsi-yu pu

《西游补》的版本与序跋问题存在着诸多争议,如版本与序跋写作的时间、序跋的作者、《西游记》续书之序跋搞混等。通过对有关文献资料的甄别和新材料的进一步挖掘,考定出崇祯间刊本《西游补》附有明代嶷如居士的《西游补序》和静啸斋主人的《西游补答问》。嶷如居士就是小说的作者,与静啸斋主人为同一人,即董说。该版本并无"天目山樵序"和《读西游补杂记》。空青室刊本《西游补》同时附"天目山樵序"和《读西游补杂记》。"天目山樵序"作者为张文虎,序文写于咸丰三年(1853),"三一道人"乃是张文虎友人。《读西游补杂记》作者为钱培名,写于咸丰三、四年间。

There has been much controversy on the editions and the prefaces and postscripts of The Hsiyu pu （A Sequel to The Hsi-yu-chi）, regarding, say, the years of publication and writing of the prefaces and postscripts, the author（s） of the prefaces and postscripts, and the confusion of The Hsi-yu pu with other sequels to The Hsi-yu-chi in prefaces and postscripts. This paper, based on a survey of existing documents and a discovery of new evidence, identifies ＂A Preface to The Hsi-yu pu＂ by the Yiru Jushi and ＂Q＆A on The Hsi- yu pu＂ by the Jingxiaozhai Zhuren in the edition published during Emperor Chongzhen＇ s reign （1627 -1644） in the Ming Dynasty （ 1368 - 1644）. The Yiru Jushi is the author of the novel, who is the same person as the Jingxiaozhai Zhuren, i. e. , Dong Shuo （1620 - 1686）. That edition does not contain ＂A Preface by Tianmushan Qiao＂ and ＂Notes on The Hsi-yu pu＂, which are in the edition published by the Kongqingshi Press. The ＂Preface＂ was written by Zhang Wenhu （ 1808 - 1885 ） in 1853, and the ＂Taoist Sanyi＂ mentioned therein is a friend of Zhang; the ＂Notes＂ was written by Qian Peiming in about 1853 -1854.
