Biography

李建。
旧唐书卷一百五十五 列传第一百五:
  建,字杓直,家素清贫,无旧业。与兄造、逊于荆南躬耕致养,嗜学力文。举进士,选授秘书省校书郎。德宗闻其名,用为右拾遗、翰林学士。元和六年,坐事罢职,降詹事府司直。高郢为御史大夫,奏为殿中侍御史,迁兵部郎中、知制诰。自以草诏思迟,不愿司文翰,改京兆尹。与宰相韦贯之友善。贯之罢相,建亦出为澧州刺史。征拜太常少卿,寻以本官知礼部贡举。建取舍非其人,又惑于请托,故其年选士不精,坐罚俸料。明年,除礼部侍郎,竟以人情不洽,改为刑部。
  建名位虽显,以廉俭自处,家不理垣屋,士友推之。长庆二年二月卒,赠工部尚书。三子:讷、恪、朴。讷最知名,官至华州刺史、检校尚书右仆射。
