王通生平著述新证——以新出《王勱墓志》为中心

王通仕宦与否、《元经》真伪等问题因资料缺乏一直难以确证,据新出《王勱墓志》可知王通确曾官蜀郡司户书佐一职,此前不载此事乃有意之隐瞒,其目的是为了刻画王通的隐士形象。同时可知王通确曾撰《元经》并亲自整理,今存本有后人增附篡改之处,但恐不能完全疑伪。

A New Textual Research of Wang Tong's Life and Works:From the Perspective of the Newly Excavated Epitaph of Wang Mai

Some issues such as whether Wang Tong was an official or not,whether the Yuan Jing was true or false,have not been resolved by lack of information.According to the newly excavated epitaph of Wang Mai,we know that Wang Tong was once an official called Shujunsihushuzuo,which was deliberately concealled with the purpose of depicting Wang Tong’s image of recluse.At the same time,we also know that Wang Tong indeed wrote and edited the Yuan Jing,and the circulated edition of the Yuan Jing was distorted later,but we can’t think it is absolutely false.
