一般探討「稼軒詞」典範地位如何形成的問題時，大多從作品本身的藝術性或稼軒的人格及事業去詮釋之。「稼軒詞」所以具有典範性，作品的藝術性及作者本身的人格及事業去詮釋之。「稼軒詞」所以具有典範性，作品的藝術性及作者本身的人格及事業，確是基本要素；可是，除此之外，我們也注意到有關「稼軒詞」的「傳播行為」，在其典範地位形成的過程中，實亦發揮極大的效用。 然而，「稼軒詞」的「傳播行為」多樣而複雜，礙於篇幅，無法一一探討，僅擇取其中，清代以前對「稼軒詞」的刻印與論述的「傳播行為」，去詮釋它們如何對「典範形成」產生作用。 透過本文詮釋性的研究可知，清代以前對「稼軒詞」的刻印與論述的「傳播行為」，應對「稼軒詞」典範地位的形成，提供相當程度的助力，而且這種「傳播效應」甚至延展到清代以後，使「稼軒詞」的典範地位恆久不衰。 本文的論題包括：一、「稼軒詞」的「傳播行為」面向；二、「稼軒詞」傳播行為的關係；三、「稼軒詞」傳播結構中所隱涵的「傳播策略」；四、「稼軒詞」的傳播對其「典範地位」之形成所產生的效應。 本文希望透過上述的研究，為「詞學」的領域，找尋新的研究方向，並使古典文學外部的傳播行為及其效應的問題，能夠受到現代學者的重視。

Generally when dealing with the establishment of Xin Qiji's song lyric as the exemplary model in the Chinese literary tradition, most studies focused either on the artistic nature of his work or on Xin Qiji's career and personality. Although the artistic nature of his work did have its importance, the author's career and personality should be seen as an even important factor in the establishment of this exemplary status. Moreover, the dissemination of Xin Qiji's work in the later periods had also played a major role. Due to the lack of statistic evidences, it is always difficult to do any empirical research into the act and its process of the circulation of an author's literary works. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to trace the imprints and their circulation of Xin Qiji's work only before the Qing dynasty, and then to construct the establishment of Xin Qiji's work as poetic exemplary out of these materials. The topics of this research article include: 1) the historical aspect of the dissemination of Xin Qiji's work; 2) the circulation and its networks of Xin Qiji's work; 3) the strategy of the dissemination; and 4) the effect of the circulation and dissemination of Xin Qiji's work and the formation of its exemplary position. Through this study, I would like to propose a new and yet feasible approach to Xin Qiji's song lyric.
