Sun Yirang
Sun Yirang was a Qing dynasty Chinese philologist. A native of Wenzhou, Zhejiang province, he retired from official employment early in his life to devote himself to scholarship. His most important works are Mozi Jiangu, a corrected, definitive edition of Mozi, and Zhouli Zhengyi, an important commentary on the Rites of Zhou. He also contributed to the studies of the bronzeware script and oracle script. His work Qiwen Juli, published posthumously by Luo Zhenyu, was the first work of decipherment of the oracle bone script.
