摘要
首轮新方志称为新编志书,亦即重修志书。相对于续修、续编而言,不能将重修志书解释为新修。重修亦称新编,是部分或全部收录前志资料,并作出补遗和正误,再续前志下限后的资料,创新体例和内容。重修的原因有四:贯通古今、辑存资料、纠舛正误、欲湮前志。重修志书须把握好两个重要环节:一是准确衡量"重"字的分量,重修应后来居上;二是准确理解"修"字的内涵。要重新鉴别、取舍、编纂前志的资料;要着力增编前志下限后的资料。应该面对现实,承认自古有之的重修现象。重修志书若不能超越前志,只能称为增修本、补修本,且不宜提倡。若重修没有质量保障,应当慎之又慎,应当搞续修。
New local records compiled in the first round are called newly compiled local records,i.e.revised local records.In comparison with continued revision and continued compilation,one can not interpret revised local records as newly revised local records.Revised local records can be called newly compiled local records,which partly or wholly take in reference materials in the formerly compiled local records,make amendments and corrections,continue with materials beyond the timeframe of the formerly compiled local records,and create new style and content.There are four reasons for revising local records:linking up past and present,collecting and saving reference materials,correcting errors and mistakes,and the desire to render the formerly compiled local records obsolete.Two important links must be grasped in revising local records:1.precisely measuring the weight of 'revision',and making sure the revision is a superior latecomer;2.precisely understand the connotation of 'revising'.Reference materials in formerly compiled local records should be reappraised,selected,and compiled;reference materials beyond the timeframe of the formerly compiled local records should be painstakingly supplemented and compiled.One should face up with reality and recognize the revision phenomenon which existed since old time.If revised local records cannot surpass formerly compiled local records,then they can only be called supplemented edition or amended edition,and the practice should not be encouraged.If the revision is done without guarantee on quality,then it should be done with the greatest degree of caution,and should be replaced with a continued edition.
