许大壮与大壮炉及其故事研究

Xu Dazhuang and Dazhuang Stove and Their Stories

本文围绕许大壮与大壮炉,在文献分析基础上进行文本分析,可知许大壮是福建省漳州府海澄县七都人,入籍南靖县马坪总锦田社,康熙三十年(1691)以南靖县儒学生员成为岁贡,康熙四十八年曾任泉州府永春县儒学训导3年。许大壮参考康熙《漳州府志》记载的马坪茶炉,研发大壮炉,成为马坪茶炉中的精品,曾在南靖、龙溪、海澄广为流传。大壮炉研发与仙游县九鲤湖祈梦文化有关,与科举文化相结合,是闽南文化与莆仙文化交融的产物。大壮炉受到龙溪县乾隆二十八年(1763)移风易俗运动的冲击,其窑址在乾隆四十一年九龙江南溪水灾中遭到冲毁,最终失传。大壮炉始载于乾隆《南靖县志》,目前可考的大壮炉故事也仅见载于该志,所谓大壮炉原件均未能证明是许大壮所造。
