全臺首著鸞書釋疑──兼論《警世盤銘》佚文調查報告
The first Phoenix Book in Taiwan
摘要
臺灣最早扶鸞記載，可追溯自《鳳山縣志》康熙五十八年的紀錄，但宗教化的特徵還未大備。逮至宜蘭地區新民堂具有開堂掛牌、組織職務、禮節儀式以及扶鸞問事等初步宗教化規模，並繁衍出許多子堂進而影響全臺，所以各地鸞堂大多視新民堂為蒿矢。而在討論全臺第一部鸞書方面，過去學界，因澎湖樂善堂在《覺悟選新》書中自稱：「全臺鸞務開基」及「全臺首著第一部鸞書」，研究者在沒有史料佐證，及深入研判下，就信以為真，並經一再徵引，現幾乎成為定論。事實上，全臺首著第一部善書，並不是澎湖樂善堂的《覺悟選新》，樂善堂也不是全臺鸞務開基。這爭議，學界鮮少有人討論。本論文試以宜蘭市新民堂《警世盤銘》、宜蘭市鑑民堂《化蘭全書》、宜蘭市醒世堂《善錄金篇》、澎湖縣樂善堂《覺悟選新》等鸞書為文本。分兩大節討論，從鸞堂開堂日期、成書年代、行忠堂《醒世全書》收錄各個鸞書的排序時間，三面向進行論證，勾勒出清末臺灣鸞堂的發展情形，同時以時間軸，清楚排序出鸞書著造先後。更以《警世盤銘》、《善錄金篇》、《覺悟選新》等文本自證其淵源關係，以釐清長期以來「全臺鸞務開基」及「全臺首著第一部鸞書」的誤信。
並列摘要
The earliest flying phoenix records in Taiwan could trace back to《鳳山縣志》 - the 58th year of Kang Xi (康熙五十八年), when the religionization of that record was still not mature enough. There were some preliminary religion rituals developed in I-Lan 新民堂 and many Sub-Phoenix Hall had derived from here. So far, the argument about which book is the first Phoenix Book in Taiwan has no consistency in academic statements. The first acknowledged one should be《覺悟選新》 in Penghu 樂善堂, which was the most significant ever record make of most researchers. This paper aims at identifying the first Phoenix Book in Taiwan through textual analysis of Phoenix Books of《警世盤銘》 in I-Lan 新民堂,《化蘭全書》 in I-Lan 鑑民堂,《善錄金篇》 in I-Lan 醒世堂, and《覺悟選新》 in Penghu 樂善堂. The issues discussed in this paper include the date the Phoenix Hall established, the time the Phoenix Book published, and the ranking data chronologically by《醒世全書》in 行忠堂. With the timeline observing, this paper respectively arranges the writing and finishing time of each Phoenix Book. By comparing the relationship among 《警世盤銘》 ,《化蘭全書》 ,《善錄金篇》 ,and《覺悟選新》 , this paper clarifies the misconception toward the misunderstanding of the first Phoenix Book in Taiwan.
