《学山堂印谱》序跋考

A Textual Research on the Preface and Colophon of Xueshantang Seal Book

《学山堂印谱》是明代张灏汇辑时人篆刻作品的一部图像文献。序跋作为印学研究重要的文献资料,涉及印谱编纂、印人思想和印学价值等诸多方面的历史信息。目前国内外对《学山堂印谱》序跋的研究较少,本文通过对原始文献的解读,首先从地域、亲疏关系、职业以及编排顺序四个方面考证序跋作者;其次从张灏与汪关晚年交恶和政治上的避嫌两个方面考证更改序跋署名的原因;最后,《学山堂印谱》序跋语言多过度赞誉之辞,大大降低了明代序跋评价的可信程度,通过考证其中的溢美成分,有助于还原序跋背后真正的印学理念和审美观。

Xueshantang Seal Book [学山堂印谱] compiled by Zhang Hao in the Ming dynasty is a collection of contemporary seal carving works. The preface and colophon, as important material for the seal studies, involves abundant historical information about the compiling, the producers’ thoughts and the seals’ value. There have been so far few researches at home or abroad about the preface and colophon of Xueshantang Seal Book. Through the interpretation of the original document, this article firstly studies the writer of preface and colophon from four aspects: geographic region, relation, occupation and arrangement order. Then it researches the reason for the change of signature in the preface and colophon from the worsening relationship between Zhang Hao and Wang Guan in his later years and the avoidance of political suspicion. As there are overpraising words in the book’s preface and colophon which have even reduced the general credibility of the preface and colophon in the Ming dynasty, this article carries out a textual research of the over-complimentary part and tries to restore its authentic concept and aesthetics.
