There are 123 abstracts of novelists in the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu,which includes a novel bibliography basic information of categories,authors,titles,volumes and so on,and this is the mainstream way of citation in later research.However,it can be the traditional historical text of Ming Dynasty Novels in the form of bibliography summary,but it is deprived of qualification due to the established conclusion that "there is no history of Chinese novel before Lu Xun's research ".The study in the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu should be in the process of "reduction" and "differentiation",changing from the standard of the bibliography of novels to the identity of the history of novels in the Ming Dynasty.As a catalogue,books need to be classified.From the perspective of "distinguishing novel style","classification of novel","the order of things such as novel,legend and tales of marvels",we can comprehend characteristics of Novels in the context of the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu,so as to strengthen the boundaries and functions of different categories.When the book is judged as a novel,which is classified into other categories in previous bibliographica,the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu describe it with "back in the novelist category",which shows that the order of the category is strict.The novel is at the bottom of the stylistic superiority and inferiority.The Eclectics and the novel in the sub department can only be seen in the distinction between the content of the title "speech" and "matter",or the proportion of "strange news" and the degree of "trivial".However,the "speech" can "talk about things" and "matter" also has "speech",which makes the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu want to completely distinguish the the Eclectics and the novel,belonging to the first level of the four bibliographic categories,skipping the implied second level of the Shuo Bu directly to the third level impossible.And this is also the fundamental reason why the novel style of the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu can not be self-contained."Book in book" as a touchstone to test whether the distinguishing style of the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu is self-sufficient,tests whether the stylistic cognition of the author and the critics has reached an agreement,and also provides the distinguishing style practitioners with many opportunities to face the convergent literature,and tests whether the subjective feelings of the librarians on the degree of "fictionality" can remain consistent.As a result,the concept of novel style differentiation in the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu has gone through the process of "collection","separate manuscript","progressive presentation" and "summary of books".During this period,the differences in the classification reflect the difficulty of distinguishing styles and the unclear situation,which need to be clarified and determined through the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu.The Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu divides the novel into three categories: miscellaneous,strange news and trivial language,and the basis for its classification lies in the proportion of miscellaneous,strange news and trivial language.Among them,the content of miscellany includes gods and monsters,banter,trivia and historical biography,which mainly undertakes the function of "textual criticism".It is the nature of the novel to record more strange things."Trivia" is known as the genre of writing about anecdotes and trivia.It can be divided into "fable","proverb" and "Qingyan".The significance of classification of Novels in the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu is embodied in the following aspects: trying to solve the problem of confusion of miscellaneous histories,miscellaneous schools,miscellaneous theories and miscellaneous articles in the previous catalogue,realizing the independence of novel categories,and further classifying novels.In addition,because the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu was set by Emperor Qianlong,the bibliographic works later were widely used and spread in dealing with the classification of books.There are broad sense and narrow sense in the word "novel" in the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu."Narrow sense novel" is only the elegant novel recognized by the Si Ku Quan Shu Zong Mu."Broad novel" includes "narrow novel","legend" and "Romance".They are all narrative styles,characterized by vulgar language and absurd content."Legend" and "Romance" are more cumbersome,vulgar and absurd.However,the opposition between elegant and vulgar is also reconciled by the cultural and educational view held by Zong Mu.For example,the books of primary learning to children,or reading in the boudoir,or aimed at discipline military officer.While maintaining a serious view of works,the officials also took into account the convenience of popular release,so there will be a small amount of works with slang and slang.In addition to the above classification,the basic elements of bibliography also involve the information of author,title,volume number and edition.Zong Mu marks suspected fake books using "old title".Liang Qichao ignored the scale of Zong Mu in the history of anti-counterfeiting.At present,the academic has too much faith in the identification of forgeries in Zong Mu.The absolute contempt and the absolute attention,make the false novels have not been re-examined.With the development of commercial publishing in the middle and late Ming Dynasty,profitable speculators,in order to realize the value-added of the commodity books they possessed,did not hesitate to change the incomplete books into full-length books by assembling and falsifying preface and postscript,copy other books and fake famous people to make fake books.Therefore,those novels which are slightly against the logic and established premise of identifying falsifications,such as time clues,the writing mirrors the writer,historical records,intentional copying,will be labeled as "pseudograph".It is worth discussing that the Zong Mu shows the logic and reasoning process of the fiction's identification of forgeries and draws the conclusion of forgeries.For example,the first person narration in the novel entry is not necessarily the experience of the novelist because of the novel copying from other books.for the novel that is not recorded in the historical records,there is also the possibility of omission in the historical records.The writing mirrors the writer,because there are stylistic differences between the novel and the poem itself.Confuse the plagiarismes with quote.There are 15 kinds of Ming novels recorded in Zong Mu that have been lost,some of them are only remnant and anthology,and 32 pieces of lost articles are temporarily collected from other historical records,miscellaneous records and anthologies,involving 9 kinds of lost books.To some extent,the summary of Ming Dynasty Novels in Zong Mu restores the contents of volume times,items,preface and postscript of lost books.The version information provided by the Zong Mu can be compared with the current version of the existing novels,and also provides clues about the basic edition and the basic system.The Zong Mu possess the basic elements for the writing of modern historical books of novels.Novels recorded in Si Ku Quan Shu are the classics of Ming novels produced under the criterions by historical standard.Monographic study focus on the interaction between social ethos and the literary style.The Zong Mu corrects historical mistakes based on Novels.The notes of Weng Fanggang's abstract are equivalent to "selected reading of novels" and rich argumentation examples.In the form of bibliographic summary,the Zong Mu has written a brief history of chronological chores,trivia,and anecdotal novels,supplemented by a collection of important works,descriptions,and items for value judgment.In the "mutual seeing method" and "polyphonic" writing(the evaluation of a book is scattered in different summaries,and the evaluation information echoes,complements,and even contradicts),the multi-dimensional criticism of the novel has been completed.Under the shackles of the traditional novel concept,the attitude of orthodox and bibliographic tradition,the Zong Mu selects those which want to make a detailed textual research and are beneficial to correction history,so as to be able to increase one's knowledge and exhort others.And then the elegant novel becomes the unmarked.While the popular novel is abandoned and marginalized as the marked.The knowledge system set up by the Zong Mu was replaced by modern subjects imported from the late Qing Dynasty,and the context of novels entered the category of literature subjects.In addition to the fact that popular novels(such as the Hun Ci novel)occupy the literature history and the chapters of novel history,the "flipping" of popular novels into "the unmarked" lies in the expansion of the connotation and extension of popular novels(such as the inclusion scope of Tan Ci).The Zong Mu can break the convention that ""there is no history of Chinese novel before Lu Xun's research ",in order to merge "the unmarked" and "the marked" simultaneously in the context of rewriting the history of novels.In the literature teaching materials,the unmarked is the novels depicting the secular in late Ming Dynasty,such as Jin Ping Mei,which ignores or doesn't pay enough attention to the novels imitating Shi Shuo Xin Yu.However,when "the unmarked" in Zong Mu and literature teaching materials are focused on the late Ming dynasty at the same time,we can be surprised to find that the vision of the two kinds of novels turned to describing the lively secular at the same time.
