《东游记》,全书二十四回,现存为残本,为清初刻本。另有钞本残存。作者署名为顾道民,有张竹坡评语。该书不同于吴元泰著神魔小说《八仙出处东游记》,为艳情小说。现在对于该小说研究,仅见于一些文献专著或目录学之作略作介绍,不够深入。本文拟从三方面对该书做出考究:对小说作者、版本及成书时间做一拓展性探究,以弥补前人论述不详;小说最为称奇之一就是其中“奇字”颇多,文章对部分“奇字”做出解读;小说称奇之二就是引用大量资料,涉及内容之大之广,也是本文关注重点。 “Travels to the East,” the book twenty-four back, the existing residual, as the early Qing edition. Another note remaining. Author called Gu Dao-min, a comment by Zhang Zhupo. The book is different from Wu Yuantai with the gods and novels, “Eight Immortals origin travel”, as erotic novels. Now for the study of the novel, only seen in some literature monographs or bibliography for a brief introduction, not deep enough. This article intends to make an exquisite study of the book from three aspects: to make an exploratory inquiry into the author, edition and time of the novel so as to make up for the lack of discussion of the predecessors; one of the most amazing novel is that there are many “odd characters” On the part of “odd characters ” to make an interpretation; novel two is the odd number of references to a large number of data, involving a wide range of content, but also the focus of this article.
