应当重新确认孙思邈的出生年份

由于《四库全书总目提要》对孙思邈出生之年的误判,导致孙氏晚生40年。实际上孙思邈在与卢照邻的讲话中已提供了他生年的干支,也就是隋文帝的出生之年——开皇辛酉(公元541年)。重新认定孙思邈的出生之年,不仅是单纯的学术研究,它还具有很强的社会现实意义。

Reconfirmation of SUN Si-miao's Date of Birth

Owing to the mistake in General Contents of Complete Collection in the Four Branches of Literature,Sun Simiao has been believed to be born 40 years later than the actual date.As a matter of fact,Sun gave his date of birth in his talk with Lu Zhaolin,i.e.in the same year the emperor of the Sui Dynasty was born(541 AD).Reconfirmation of Sun Simiao's date of birth is not simply an academic study but is also of great practical significance.
