余嘉锡《四库提要辨证·水经注辨证》平议

A Comment on Yu Jiaxi’s Abstract Dialectics of the Four Books:Dialectics of the Notes on Book of Waterways

余嘉锡先生《四库提要辨证》考订《四库提要》得失成果极丰,然其中《水经注辨证》内容颇多可商之处。其关于戴震论《水经》作者、戴震撰《屈原赋注》、戴震修《直隶河渠书》及所谓与顾广圻之争等问题考辨均存在讹误,试一一予以辨明。

Yu Jiaxi’s Abstract Dialectics of the Four Books has made great success in revising Ab⁃stracts of the Four Books.But there’re some doubts in Dialectics of the Notes on Book of Waterways,such as Dai Zhen’s discussion about the author of Book of Waterways,his writing of Notes of Qu Fu,his revision of Book of Zhili Waterways and his argument with Gu Guangqi.All the doubts mentioned above should be clarified and verified.
