太平寰宇记[View] [Edit] [History]ctext:325307
The Taiping Huanyu Ji generally records places' populations, notable landmarks and religious or ceremonial structures, customs, and basic historical information, sometimes adding details not found in Sima Qian's Records of the Grand Historian, China's most renowned geographical treatise. It also set the trend for including biographies, literary citations, and other material in Chinese geographical works.
《太平寰宇记》沿用唐制,仿李吉甫《元和郡县图志》的体裁,将全国分为十三道,下分州、县,分别记述其历代的建置沿革、户口、风俗、人物、关塞、亭障、名胜古迹、祠庙等,又载录唐以前大量的地方佚文,可补史籍之缺,具有极高的史料价值。如南朝盛弘之《荆州记》、陆澄《地理书抄》、顾野王《舆地志》等地理佚书,都赖《寰宇记》引录而得以保留。《文献通考》评《太平寰宇记》:「太平兴国中,尽平诸国,天下一统,史悉取自古山经地志,考证讹谬,撰成此书上之。」许多在《元和郡县志》中没有渊源解释的地名,在《太平寰宇记》中都得到了解释。如玄武湖,在《元和郡县志》卷25「上元县」中仅11字:「在县北十里。周回二十五里。」,而《太平寰宇记》卷90「上元县」则详载:「宋元嘉末,有黑龙见湖内,故改为玄武湖也。」《寰宇记》在地名释名上记载有二千多处,远胜于《元和郡县志》的九百三十一处,更胜于郦道元《水经注》一千多处。王象之《舆地纪胜》、祝穆《方舆胜览》都大量引用此书。四库馆臣评:「盖地理之书,记载至是书而始详,体例亦自是而大变」 。钱大昕认为「有宋一代志舆地者,当以乐氏为巨擘」 。
近代有王文楚点校本,是目前最佳的版本,收录于中华书局《中国古代地理总志丛刊》。
