本論文主要從版本、箋注體例、方法等角度對《唐宋詩舉要》進行基礎性研究。首先釐清《唐宋詩舉要》在兩岸出版的各種版本間的差異,是書曾有十數間出版社出版過,但所持底本不盡相同,主要有1978年上海古籍出版社之「新一版」、1931年北平直隸書局鉛印本,這兩個版本在臺灣都有翻印,但或有刪節、或無標點校勘,直至2004年方始由里仁書局出版精校標點之全本,2011年中國書店亦出版全本《唐宋詩舉要》,並盡力恢復高步瀛原書中之編纂成例。其次,探討《唐宋詩舉要》箋注之體例及隱含其中的「引證式評論」方法意識。最後,以「引證式評論」為基礎,進一步推導出「集格成體」的詩學觀念,也就是其集眾家評說以建構詩家體貌,並集詩家體貌建構詩體體式的批評方法。
