楊爾曾(約1575-？)，字聖魯，號雉衡山人，明浙江錢塘人。曾編著《東西晉演義》、《韓湘子全傳》小說兩種，流傳頗廣，亦為近當代小說研究者所熟悉。除此以外，楊爾曾尚有繪畫、地理及宗教方面等編著，刊刻精美，頗為時人所稱許。然而，目前學界對於楊爾曾的認識與研究，一直停留在兩部小說上。其實，目前知見楊爾曾編輯、出版了略有十餘種書籍，學術界於此缺乏全面性的著述與論文專門探討。有見及此，本文乃就所見文獻書目及相關研究論著，對楊爾曾之編撰與刊刻進行全面性的考述工作，以補全學界對楊氏的認識與研究之不足。 YANG Er-zeng ( about 1575-?), courtesy name Shenglu, pseudonym ZhiHeng ShanRen, born at Qiantang, Zhejiang Province in Ming Dynasty. He compiled two novels Romance of Eastern and Western Jin (Dynasty) and The Complete Biography of Han Xiangzi which once were popular and are known by modern novel researchers. Besides that, Yang also has some compilation on painting, geography and religions, which are delicacy and were highly praised at that time. However, the research about Yang has been confined in two novels only till now. There are over ten books compiled and published by Yang. No comprehensive works or papers about that appeared yet. Therefore, according to the bibliography and research works, this paper will comprehensively study those compilation and printing works so as to enrich the research list about Yang and his great achievements.
