明末清初太仓乐郊园示意平面复原探析

Schematic Layout Recovery and Analysis of Lejiao Yuan of Taicang in Late Ming and Early Qing Dynasty

明末清初太仓的乐郊园为当时江南地区首屈一指的名园,但对此园的研究尚不深入,与此园的历史地位并不匹配,这主要是由于历史材料的局限,也与研究方法有关。本文通过几种材料的综合比对判断,在获得历史材料间的关系认识基础上,针对两篇园记分别作出示意平面复原、并综合3种材料绘制总体示意平面图。以此为基础,进一步对乐郊园的布局构成、景物配置、营造过程等基本特点进行分析,从而对这一具有重要历史价值的园林作出认识上的推进。

In the period of the late Ming and the early Qing, Lejiao Yuan of Taicang was regarded as the most famed garden in the Jiangnan area. However, the contemporary studies on this garden are not matched with its historical role because of both limited historical material and research method. In this paper, several kinds of material are closely compared and judged so that the layout recovery of the garden is carried out and schematic plans are made. Furthermore, the basic features of the garden, such as layout configuration, various views and construction process are discussed tentatively. In this way, this garden with great historical value can be further understood with a new solid foundation.
