清代补史艺文志“简”“繁”两类补志的比较及成因分析

Comparisons between Two Bu Shi Yi Wen Zhi in the Qing Dynasty and the Reason Analysis

清代的补史艺文经历了不同的发展阶段,每个阶段有各自的特点。早期的补史艺文志著录相对简单,一般仅有书名、卷数,偶有小注;后来的补史艺文志在著录上日趋丰富,兼有其它种类目录的特点。笔者以为形成这一"简"、一"繁"两类目录的原因并非由于编写时间、编写方法以及参考资料上的差异,而主要是编目者"术业有专攻",学术专长各异,所形成的目录学思想彼此不同,因此对目录功用的看法见仁见智。

There are different characteristics in the development of the Bu Shi Yi Wen Zhi in the Qing dynasty. In the early days, the Yi Wen Zhi was simple, only including the name and volume number of the books, with notes sometimes; however, the later Bu Shi Yi Wen Zhi improved a lot in recording. The reason for simple and complicated recording is not because of the differences in compiling time, compiling methods and reference materials. Instead, the reason mainly lies in the specialized knowledge of compilers. Because the specialized knowledge of compilers was different, their developed thoughts on bibliography differed. As a result, there existed different views on bibliography functions.
