About Wang Yangming
- Wang Shouren (26 October 1472 – 9 January 1529), courtesy name Bo'an, was a Chinese calligrapher, military general, philosopher, politician, and writer during the Ming dynasty.
- After Zhu Xi, he is commonly regarded as the most important Neo-Confucian thinker, with interpretations of Confucianism that denied the rationalist dualism of the orthodox philosophy of Zhu Xi.
- Wang was known as Yangming Xiansheng and/or Yangming Zi in literary circles: both mean "Master Yangming". In China, Japan, and Western countries, he is known by his honorific name rather than his private name.
