乾隆年间陈琮《永定河志》考

On YONGDINGHEZHI Compiled by Chen Cong in the Qianlong Era

乾隆五十四年,永定河道陈琮纂修了清代第一部《永定河志》。由于该志版本少、收藏深宫,极难索阅,又加之嘉庆时李逢亨纂修第二部《永定河志》有意回避陈琮纂修过《永定河志》,造成后人以讹传讹。通过对陈琮纂修《永定河志》的考察,纠正以往错误认识,正确认知陈琮《永定河志》的文献价值与历史地位。

Chen Cong compiled the first YONGDINGHEZHI in the 54th year of the Qianlong Era（1789）. Because the book was collected in the Imperial Palace and its version was few,it was extremely difficult to look up for normal people. Li Fengheng compiled a new book with same title with Chen＇s in the 20th year of the Jiaqing Era（ 1815）,and he deliberately avoided the fact that Chen Cong had compiled the book,so it made later generations confused. By an investigation into Chen Cong＇s YONGDINGHEZHI,not only was the misunderstanding on it corrected,but also the value and historical status of Chen Cong＇s book were reassessed.
