国家图书馆藏乾隆刻本《绣像荔枝记陈三歌》考略

On Xiu Xiang Li Zhi Ji Chen San Ge of Qianlong Dynasty Block-printed Edition Collected in NLC

国家图书馆所藏乾隆己亥(1779)年刊本《绣像荔枝记陈三歌》,原为郑振铎先生旧藏。此本无论是从故事题材,还是从唱本方言及版式等方面来看,都应属于流行于福建闽南及台湾各地的闽南语歌仔册,而非赵万里所认为的"福州本"鼓词。此本的再发现,将使歌仔册的形成时间,由以往认为的道光六年(1826)上推近50年,具有重要的价值和意义。

Xiu Xiang Li Zhi Ji Chen San Ge of Qianlong Dynasty block-printed edition,which first collected by Zheng Zhenduo,is kept in National Library of China(NLC) today.According to the story theme,the cover and layout,and its text,we believe that this book is the earliest Hokkien Gezi book existing in the world,rather than Fuzhou Libretto what Zhao Wanli said.With the rediscovery of this book,the formation of Gezi Booklets will be pushed on nearly five decades.So it has great value and significance.
