Feng Zhizhong

Feng Zhizhong (born April 1939) is the editor of The Complete Works of Feng Zhen and has long been engaged in organizing the writings of Feng Zhen (1897–1983). The manuscripts he has edited, including Studies in the Various Masters, Studies in Philology, and Miscellaneous Writings from the Natural Studio, have been published by Guangxi Normal University Press since 2021 as part of the complete works. Public information about Feng Zhizhong is limited, and his role is known mainly through this collection. Judging from the volumes issued so far, the material he has organized spans both Chinese philology and Eastern philosophy, combining a systematic treatment of philological scholarship with discussions of the thought of the various masters, as well as a collection of miscellaneous notes. The content emphasizes textual criticism and interpretation within traditional scholarship, and the writing is plain and rigorous. These results provide a relatively reliable foundational text for studying Feng Zhen's scholarship and facilitate the reading of traditional philology and the study of the various masters.
