《封神演义》“陆西星著”补说

A Support to the Statement That Lu Xixing Was the Author of The Creation of Gods

《封神演义》的作者有陆西星、许仲琳、李云翔三说。若从文本内证看,陆西星说更有说服力。本文在前人论证的基础上略加补充,从黄龙真人的特殊笔墨与陆西星私淑吕洞宾之关联,长耳定光仙与陆西星经历的交集,以及陆西星以道为本会通三教的主张几个方面,为"陆西星著《封神演义》"之说增加一些论据。

It is a popular believe that the author of The Creation of Gods is Lu Xixing,or Xu Zhonglin,or Li Yunxiang.Judging by the text itself,it is more convincing that Lu Xixing was the author.On the basis of the previous arguments,this paper adds some more evidences to the statement that The Creation of Gods was written by Lu Xixing,through examining the special description of Huanglong Zhenren and Lu Xixing’s spiritual respect to Lyu Dongbin,the intersecting experience between Long Ear Dingguangxian and Lu Xixing,and Lu Xixing’s advocate on Taoism as the foundation for the association of three religions:Confucianism,Buddhism,and Taoism.
