摘要
圆明园在第二次鸦片战争中两遭焚掠,但关于第一次火烧圆明园事件的研究尚有不足之处。在将《圆明园劫难记忆丛书》中收录的英法联军一些主要人员的回忆录、书信集及公函、照会,与中方奏折档案、私人日记等比较研究后,可以发现:联军最初抵达圆明园是军事行动的自然结果;圆明园第一次遭到焚烧始于10月7日;英法联军及中国土匪共同参与了火烧行动;英法联军是劫掠圆明园的主要实施者,但中国土匪和部分百姓也参与了对圆明园物件的劫掠、捡拾和藏匿。
The Old Summer Palace was burned twice in the Second Opium War. Studies about the first fire event of Old Summer Palace are not enough yet. By reading materials made by British and French troops in the Summer Palace Catastrophe Memory Books, and comparing them with Chinese memorial archives, personal diaries, we find that the British and French troops first arrived at the Summer Palace as the result of military action. The Old Summer Palace began to burn on October 7. British and French troops and Chinese bandits participated in the fire action. British and French troops were main perpetrators, while some Chinese bandits and civilians also participated in the looting, picking and hiding objects of Old Summer Palace.
