Biography

龚玄之,武陵汉寿人。
晋书卷九十四 列传第六十四:
  龚玄之,字道玄,武陵汉寿人也。父登,历长沙相、散骑常侍。玄之好学潜默,安于陋巷。州举秀才,公府辟,不就。孝武帝下诏曰:"夫哲王御世,必搜扬幽隐,故空谷流絷维之咏,丘园旅束帛之观。谯国戴逵、武陵龚玄之并高尚其操,依仁游艺,洁己贞鲜,学弘儒业,朕虚怀久矣。二三君子,岂其戢贤于怀抱哉!思挹雅言,虚诚讽议,可并以为散骑常侍,领国子博士,指下所在备礼发遣,不得循常,以稽侧席之望。"郡县敦逼,苦辞疾笃,不行。寻卒,时年五十八。
  弟子元寿,亦有德操,高尚不仕,举秀才及州辟召,并称疾不就。孝武帝以太学博士、散骑侍郎、给事中累征,遂不起。卒于家。
