Fabrizio Pregadio (born January 14, 1957) is an Italian Sinologist and a translator of Chinese language texts related to Taoism and Neidan (internal alchemy) into English. He is currently affiliated with the International Consortium for Research in the Humanities (University of Erlangen-Nuremberg),[1] and is working on a project on the Taoist master Liu Yiming (1734–1821), initially supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG).[2]

Earlier, Pregadio taught at the University of Venice (1996–97), Technische Universität Berlin (1998–2001), Stanford University (2001–08), McGill University in Montreal (2009–10), and the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (2014–18).

His research interests are the Taoist views of the human being; the self-cultivation traditions of Taoism; their foundations in early Taoist works; and their relation to Chinese traditional sciences, including cosmology, alchemy, and medicine.

Pregadio is the author of Great Clarity: Daoism and Alchemy in Early Medieval China (Stanford University Press, 2006) [3] and the editor of The Encyclopedia of Taoism (Routledge, 2008).[4] His translations of Taoist texts include the Wuzhen pian (Awakening to Reality, 2009),[5] the Cantong qi (The Seal of the Unity of the Three, 2011 and 2012),[6] the Ruyao jing (Mirror for Compounding the Medicine, 2013),[7] a work by the Taoist master Liu Yiming (Cultivating the Tao, 2013),[8] and an anthology of texts on Neidan (2019),[9] all published by Golden Elixir Press.

His most recent works include a dictionary of Taoist Internal Alchemy (2024) [10] and an introduction to Taoist thought and religion (2025).[11]
