试析朝鲜-韩国学者的虬髯客原型解

The Analysis of Korean Scholars’ Studies on the Archetype of Qiuranke

在目前《虬髯客传》研究中,学者们对于虬髯客原型的关注程度不亚于对该小说其他部分的研究。在《虬髯客传》中,李靖、李世民等“次要人物”大都用真名实姓,而小说主人公却有姓无名,这就引发了研究者对虬髯客原型的兴趣。中国国内学者眼里的虬髯客原型主要为张仲坚、李世民、杜光庭等,而朝鲜-韩国学者则认为虬髯客原型是乞乞仲象或渊盖苏文等。笔者较倾向于渊盖苏文说,因为渊盖苏文最接近小说虬髯客形象。

In current Chinese study of Biography of Qiuranke, the attention to the archetype of Qiuranke gains similar importance to the study of other parts in this novel. Most of the minor characters in this novel, such as Li Jing and Li Shimin, were presented by their true names, yet the hero was presented only by his family name, leading to scholars’ interest to the archetype of the hero Qiuranke. Chinese scholars believe the character Qiuranke is created based on the images of Zhang Zhongjian, Li Shimin, or Du Guangting. However, Korean scholars incline towards the opinion that the character is created based on the images of Qi Qizhongxiang,the leader of Manchu ethnic group in Tang Dynasty, or Yuan Gaisuwen, the famous military officer in late Goguryeo. Due to the great similarity between the images of Qiuranke and Yuan Gaisuwen, this paper supports Korean scholars’ opinion.
