明代文言小說《狐媚叢談》的編纂與刊刻考略

A Textual Research of Compilation and Inscription of Ming Dynasty Novel ＂Hu Mei Cong Tan＂

《狐媚叢談》是一部以狐為主題的明代文言小說總集。有墨杘子為其撰寫小引，憑虛子「（叢）而傳之」，最終由明代書坊主楊爾曾刊刻成書。然而，《狐媚叢談》的作者究竟是誰，目前學術界尚無定論。有學者認為《狐媚叢談》的編纂者是墨杘子，有人認為是憑虛子，也有人認為是楊爾曾。據考證，墨杘子與憑虛子都是「子虛烏有」的寓言式人名，《狐媚叢談》的刊刻者楊爾曾則歷史實有。楊爾曾，明代浙江人，是一位作家兼書坊主。蘇杭刻書歷史悠久，在明代中後期更是刻書的中心，可見，《狐媚叢談》的刊刻成書具有得天獨厚的區位優勢。另外，楊爾曾具有尚道的思想傾向，其名下的《仙媛紀事》、《淨明宗教錄》等書籍便浸染著濃郁的道教思想。無獨有偶，《狐媚叢談》的刊刻成書也離不開楊爾曾這一宗教思想的指引。
