Biography

杨方。
晋书卷六十八 列传第三十八:
  杨方,字公回。少好学,有异才。初为郡铃下威仪,公事之暇,辄读《五经》,乡邑未之知。内史诸葛恢见而奇之,待以门人之礼,由是始得周旋贵人间。时虞喜兄弟以儒学立名,雅爱方,为之延誉。恢尝遣方为文,荐郡功曹主簿。虞预称美之,送以示循。循报书曰:"此子开拔有志,意只言异于凡猥耳,不图伟才如此。其文甚有奇分,若出其胸臆,乃是一国所推,岂但牧竖中逸群邪!闻处旧党之中,好有谦冲之行,此亦立身之一隅。然世衰道丧,人物凋弊,每闻一介之徒有向道之志,冀之愿之。如方者乃荒莱之特苗,卤田之善秀,姿质已良,但沾染未足耳;移植丰壤,必成嘉竖。足下才为世英,位为朝右,道隆化立,然后为贵。昔许子将拔樊仲昭于贾坚,郭林宗成魏德公于畎亩。足下志隆此业,二贤之功不为难及也。"循遂称方于京师。司徒王导辟为掾,转东安太守,迁司徒参军事。方在都邑,搢绅之士咸厚遇之,自以地寒,不愿久留京华,求补远郡,欲闲居著述。导从之,上补高梁太守。在郡积年,著《五经钩沈》,更撰《吴越春秋》,并杂文笔,皆行于世。以年老,弃郡归。导将进之台阁,固辞还乡里,终于家。
