摘要
唐顺之的主要史学代表作是《左编》和《右编》。《左编》主要编录历代君臣事迹,在编纂体例的设计上独具匠心,对相关史料有目的地进行取舍剪裁。在记事的同时,往往还加以评论,或引他人之评论,或直抒胸臆。在人物的分类上,使圣贤与昏庸、忠与奸、贤与不肖,泾渭分明,起到了寓褒贬于分类之中的作用。《右编》虽属诏令奏议类的抄纂,但紧紧围绕经世资治这一主题精心设计体例,认真筛选材料。两书编纂带有鲜明的以史经世的色彩,但也存在体例不纯,分类混乱,剪裁失当,人物各传记比例失调等缺失。
Tang Shunzhi’s representative historical work are ZUOBIAN and YOUBIAN. ZUOBIAN mainly records deeds of the emperors and ministers, having great originality in terms of its style of compilation, integrating and expurgating relevant historical materials with clear purpose. Not only does it record these deeds, but also add comments, or quote other people’s words, or express author’s ideas directly. In terms of its classification of the figures, it draws a distinct line between the sage and the fatuous, the loyal and the crafty, the talented and the unworthy, at the same time, putting its appraisals and belittlements into the process of classifying. Though YOUBIAN merely copies the imperial edicts and memorial to the throne, it is still well-designed and carefully-screened based on its theme of statecraft. These two books have the characteristics of governing the country with the lessons learning from history, however, they still expose some deficiencies, such as inconsistent style, chaotic classification, and inappropriate distribution, and there are disproportions between biographies.
