清代《四库全书总目》作为古典目录的集大成者,仍将小说归入子部。它的子部尽管也与《隋志》同为十四类,却完全不能等同,内容已大大扩充了,二级类下再分细类,内容涉及社会科学、自然科学的诸多领域,内容既丰富,又庞杂,具有我国古代百科全书的性质。四库馆臣们的小说观念无论合理与否,都是学术发展到极盛时期的一种成熟的思想,具有独特而宝贵的价值,决不能轻易否定。 Qing Dynasty “Sikuquanshunda” as a masterpiece of the classical catalog, still classified the novel into sub.

They must have no unique value and can not be easily denied.
