摘要
狐刚子是中国古代著名科学家,但其生卒年代古籍中未见记载,陈国符认为他是晋人,约与葛洪同时代,赵匡华、容志毅认为他是东汉末期人。通过对狐刚子著作历代著录情况与《黄帝九鼎神丹经诀》、《太古土兑经》以及其他丹经引述狐刚子著作情况分析后发现,狐刚子活动时代诸书记载莫衷一是,无一可靠,故其著作年代不能依据其活动时代来确定,反之,可以确定狐刚子最早的著作出于南北朝或隋,故其活动年代不会早至汉末或葛洪时代。
Hu Gangzi is a famous scientist in ancient China, but the times about his birth and death or not to be seen in ancient books. Chen Guofu claimed Hu Gangzi lived in Jin dynasty, whereas Zhao Kuanghua and Rong Zhiyi deemed that he lived in late Eastern Han. By checking the writings inscribed by Hu Gangzi, this paper finds that no account referring to Hu＇s age of activity is reliable. On the contrary, the paper confirms that his earliest works appeared in the Northern and Southern dynasties, which indicate Hu Gangzi＇s active age cannot be traced back to late Eastern Han or Ge Hong＇s age.
