Feng Ban
Chinese poet and calligrapher
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Feng Ban (simplified Chinese: 冯班; traditional Chinese: 馮班; pinyin: Féng Bān; Wade–Giles: Feng Pan; 1602–1671) was a Chinese poet and calligrapher from Changshu, Jiangsu, during the time of the late Ming dynasty and early Qing dynasty. His courtesy name was Dingyuan 定遠, his style Dunyin Laoren 鈍吟老人.[1]
He is especially known for his collection Dunyin zalu (simplified Chinese: 钝吟杂录; traditional Chinese: 鈍吟雜錄; Wade–Giles: Tun-yin tsa-lu),[2] a biji collection with miscellaneous sketches, which the Hanyu da zidian f.e. is using in the edition of the Jieyueshanfang huichao[3] 借月山房汇钞.[4]
According to the short biography in the Draft History of Qing (Qingshi gao), he strongly opposed Yan Yu in his views on poetry; he particularly rejected the Jiangxi school,[5] and stylistically moved between Li Shangyin (Yishan), Du Mu (Muzhi), and Wen Tingyun (Feiqing).[6]
