Zhuang-ology Master Wang Shumin

The study on Zhuangzi is one of the major fields for pre-Qin Dynasty scholars in our country. Wang Shumin, who studied Zhuangzi for decades, had a sufficient emendation and sorting for Zhuangzi's diction and version from the point of proofreading. And then he made a thorough inquiry about zhuangzi's hometown, lifetime and learning gist, and produced some new understandings which were different from the previous viewpoints, hence setting up a new system to establish his own school of thought.
