《新修本草》辑复本收载药物数量问题及考证

The Quantity Problem and Explanation of the Drugs Contained in the Duplicate Edition of Tang Materia Medica

尚志钧辑复的《新修本草》载药850种,有充分的历史文献依据。但对《新修本草》(辑复本)各卷收载药物数量进行统计发现,辑复本共载药851种。为正本清源,助力中医药经典守正传承,采用文献校勘法中的他校法对这一问题进行了考证。考证认为,辑复本中的“葵根”不应单列,而应同“冬葵子”合为1条。同时对《新修本草》850种药物的来源,即《新修本草》在《本草经集注》基础上合并分条情况进行了进一步探讨,认为《本草经集注》载药730条,《新修本草》在其基础上新增114条,共计844条,《新修本草》从844条中分出14条(增加14条),合并5种石脂为1条(即减少4条),删除“有名未用药”中4条,合计增加6条,总计850种。同时说明《本草经集注》中“麻蕡”“麻子”本为1条,不存在《新修本草》编撰过程中将两者合并1条之说。

SHANG Zhijun's textual research on Tang Materia Medica containing 850 kinds of drugs has sufficient historical literature basis.However,according to the statistics of the number of drugs contained in each volume of the duplicate edition of Tang Materia Medica,851 kinds of drugs were contained in the copy.In order to correct the source and help the inheritance of TCM classics,this paper adopts the method of comparison proofreading to collate.The textual research shows that the Kuigen(sunflower root)in the copy should not be listed separately,but should be combined with the Dongkuizi(winter sunflower seed).At the same time,the sources of 850 kinds of drugs in Tang Materia Medica,namely,the combination and division of Tang Materia Medica on the basis of Bencaojing Jizhu(本草经集注),are further discussed.It is considered that Bencaojing Jizhu contains 730 drugs,and Tang Materia Medica adds 114 articles on its basis,totaling 844 articles.Tang Materia Medica divides 14 articles from 844 articles,and combines 5 kinds of litholipids into 1 article(i.e.,reduces 4 articles),and deletes 4 articles from the"unused drugs",in total 6 articles are added.There are 850 kinds in total.In the Bencaojing Jizhu,Mafen(麻蕡)and Mazi(麻子)belong to one article,and they should not be merged into one article in Tang Materia Medica.
