屈大均《皇明四朝成仁录》编纂考

On Compilation of Huangmingsichao Chengrenlu of Qu Dajun

屈大均在其20岁左右的顺治五年至七年之间,开始撰著"当代史"《皇明四朝成仁录》。他志存明清更迭之信史,勤于访求,广征博引时人所作墓志铭、传记等,可惜此书未成。受到时代形势和民族矛盾的激发,屈大均注重阐发《春秋》大义,以表彰晚明忠节人物,激励民族气节为著述宗旨,具有强烈的故国故君之感和反清复明精神。

Between the fifth to seventh years of Shunzhi when Qu Dajun was about twenty years old, he began to write Huangmingsichao Chengrenlu, a book of ＂contemporary history＂. He was devoted to writing the history of Ming-Qing transition, diligent in traveling personally many places, collecting creditable historical data, and citing epitaphs and biographies, though unfortunately the book was not finished. Inspired by the era of the situation and ethnic conflicts, he focused on elucidating righteousness of Chunqiu in recognizing the late Ming loyal characters and inspiring national pride as the purpose of writing, with a strong sense of former homeland,former sovereign and rebelling spirit.
