胡瑗《周易口义》编纂者生平、成书过程及版本略考

Textual Research on Hu Yuan’s Discourses on the Book of Changes about the Life of Its Editor the Process of His Editing Work and the Versions of the Book

本文对胡瑗《周易口义》编纂者倪天隐的生平,此书的成书时间、过程及版本,以及是否存在胡瑗自著《易说》的问题作了初步考证,结论是:倪氏的卒年大体可确定在熙宁二年至八年之间,而《口义》一书很可能是在嘉祐年间编纂完成的;从北宋当时的人对胡瑗《易说》的引用情况看,《口义》是从诸多学生笔记中整理出来的,且可能同时有多个版本流传;后世《易说》中引用《口义》出现的异文,或属于略引,或因传抄失误错误地归到胡瑗名下,因此尚不能构成胡瑗自著《易说》的充分证据。
