于质彬同志的《南北皮黄戏史述》一书问世以来,影响日益深广。 此书以其全面、系统、丰厚之史料,融入精辟之论述,令人折服;又以鲜明之观点与生动之文笔,梳经理纬,令人叹服。实在是一本“史实论精,姿丰目秀”的好书,可谓赐我以丰食,激我以勤思。 有了这一层感受,所以近续来函,约我一评,自然不能推托。 正如著者在《凡例》中所说:“京剧史著,不一其书”;还可赘一言:皮黄纷议,亦未终期。因此,这部《史述》,既要求史料之全面,并有新的发现;又要使史料系统化,并有新的见地。对于前者,作者自介入戏曲以来,似乎即留心于此,尤其是重视采集活口信言,经数十年积累,终成大观;对于后者,作者在构思成书的同时,就一些重要问题先撰文探路(书中多篇“附论”可证),立纲张目,画竹于胸,渐成独思创见。使全书形成了自己的特色:“此书破除史书著述线性结构的局限,努力使线性、板块两种结构形式的有机结合”;“采取纵横交错的记述方法。”(《凡例》)也可以说是史论结合的方法。对文字与活口的史料,既重积累,又重梳理,更重思辩。入史而考,出史而思;论从史出,史为论证。对可以归结之争议,敢于提出明确见解;对尚难作出归结之众说,善于画出思考之线。现就我所得,举其要者,略作概述。 Since Comrade Bin Bin’s book “History of the North and South Pei Huang Opera” has come out, the influence has become increasingly widespread. This book with its comprehensive, systematic, rich historical data, into incisive discourse, convincing; again with a sharp point of view and vivid style of writing, combing manager Wei, it is amazing. It is really a book of “Historical Facts, Attitude and Fascination”, which gives me a good food and excite me. With this layer of feeling, so the recent letter, about a review, of course, can not be dodge. As the author said in the “example”: “The history of Beijing Opera, not the book”; you can add a word: skin yellow, nor the end. Therefore, this “history” requires not only the historical data to be comprehensive and new discoveries, but also the systematic historical materials and new insights. For the former, since the intervention of the author, the author seems to pay attention to this, especially focusing on the acquisition of living words and beliefs. After decades of accumulation, the author has finally become a grand occasion. For the latter, when writing the book, the author first wrote some important questions Pathfinder (many in the book “attached to the” permit), the outline of the project, drawing bamboo in the chest, gradually into a creative thinking. So that the book formed its own characteristics: “This book broke the limitations of the linear structure of the history book, and strive to make linear, plate two kinds of structural combination of organic”; “to take a crisscross description method.” (“All cases”) can also be said Is a combination of history theory. The text and living port of historical data, both heavy accumulation, but also combing, more emphasis on debate. Into the history and test, out of history and thinking; theory from the history, the history of argument. Dare to come forward with clear opinions on the disputes that can be summed up; and be good at drawing a line of thinking for those who find it hard to make a conclusion. Now my income, give it to those who, a brief overview.
