种放 (955-1015) 為宋初著名的隱士，也是真宗喜愛的臣子。种放的父親逝世後，他決定陪母親到終南山的豹林谷隱居，以耕種及講學謀生。到十世紀末葉，种放的聲望傳到朝廷，被太宗和真宗皇帝召見。入朝後，真宗對种放特別優渥，不僅賞賜他大量的禮品，也命他擔任越來越重要的職位。在這些職位上，真宗也給种放很大的自由權，讓他數次休假、回去終南山隱居。种放逝世後，他的故事被紀錄在許多宋代的筆記中。本文的主旨即在探討這些故事，試圖釐清种放的形象演變的過程。尤其特別注意种放與陳摶 (?-989) 兩人關係的故事，探究种放如何被視為陳摶的繼承者以及放入北宋圖書《易》學的譜系中。

The noted eremite, poet, official and proponent of guwen 古文, Chong Fang 种 放 (955-1015), was one of the most interesting intellectuals of the early Song 宋 dynasty. While living in relative seclusion with his mother in the mountains outside of Chang’an 長安, Chong became a well-known teacher, achieving fame for both his intellectual views and moral integrity. In the late tenth century, Emperors Taizong 太 宗 (r. 976-997) and Zhenzong 真宗 (r. 997-1022) summoned Chong for imperial audiences and bestowed him with monetary and titular rewards. Zhenzong in particular showered Chong with an unprecedented degree of imperial favor, and after granting him an official position, he allowed Chong to move relatively freely between the court and his mountain hermitage. Following his death, Chong’s exploits attracted the attention of Song biji 筆記 authors, who recorded numerous stories about his idiosyncratic lifestyle and the largess he received from court in their biji. In this article, I analyze these stories chronologically in an effort to determine how Chong was depicted and how those depictions changed over time. My analysis focuses on anecdotes that linked Chong with Chen Tuan 陳摶 (?-989), the purported creator of several important diagrams on the Yijing 易經, and attempts to show how Chong came to be regarded as an important interpreter of the text and placed in lineages of Yi learning 易學.
