《列子》内容简介

　　《列子》又名《冲虚经》，（于前450至前375年所撰）是道家重要典籍。汉书《艺文志》著录《列子》八卷，早佚。今本《列子》八卷，从思想内容和语言使用上看，可能是后人根据古代资料编著的。全书共载民间故事寓言、神话传说等134则，是东晋人张湛所辑录增补的，题材广泛，有些颇富教育意义。

　　《列子》一书，《汉书·艺文志》道家类录《列子》八篇，班固曰：列子“名圄寇，先庄子，庄子称之”。到唐天宝元年，唐玄宗下旨设“玄学博士”，把《列子》等四部道家著作列为经典。之后，道家一直奉《列子》为圭臬，认为它默察造化消息之运，发扬黄老之幽隐，简劲宠妙，辞旨纵横，成为道家义理不可或缺的部分。
