王世贞《艺苑卮言》实物印本考覈

Evaluation of Physical Prints of Wang Shizhen's Yiyuan Zhiyan

后印本是对前印本的最好阐释,《艺苑卮言》实物印本的物质性形态、"说部"形态以及"诗话"形态呈现出不同的意义指向。从"单行本"、《四部稿》"说部"本、《谈艺珠丛》"诗话"本到现代铅字标点本;从四卷本、六卷本、八卷本、十二卷本、十六卷本到《卮言倪》《全唐诗说》《国朝诗评》《文评》《词评》《曲藻》《文章九命》等"摘选本",《艺苑卮言》的文本形态不断变化,题名、字体、纸张、序跋、卷次、钤印、牌记、刻工、堂号、墨钉、另行等可视性符号为理解实物印本产生的历史时空提供了重要元素。《艺苑卮言》实物印本的物质性形态参与了文本意义的生产,在脱离作者掌控后实物印本"物的叙事"与"作者意图"渐行渐远,由作者最初"策名艺苑""以书为礼"的"谈艺"转为"以资闲谈"的"诗话"或"诗论"。

The later prints serve as the best explanations of the former ones.The material forms of the physical prints of Yiyuan Zhiyan such as the forms of'Shuobu(novel)'and the'poetics'show different meanings.Yiyuan Zhiyan has various print forms such as'offprint',Four Manuscripts in Shuobu form,Tanyi Zhucong for poetics and modern typeface print with punctuations.It also has the prints of four volumes,six volumes,eight volumes,twelve volumes and sixteen volumes as well as the excerpt versions such as Zhiyan Ni,Comments on Tang Poems,Comments on Poets of Ming Dynasty,Comments on Essays,Comments on Poems,Quzao,and Nine Futures of Writings etc.Besides,visible symbols such as title,font,paper,preface and postscript,volume number,seals,colophon,inscription,family title,ink mark,newline,etc.,provide important sources to study the time and place of the physical prints.These material forms contribute to the generation of textual meanings beyond the author’s control.The'the story told by these objects'and'intention of the author'of the physical prints gradually diverged,and the book finally turned into the'poetry talks'or'poetry theory'as the'source of chitchat'from the'comments on art'used by the author'to make a good fame in the art circle'and'to use books as gifts'.
