Sun Yirang (; 1848âÂÂ1908) was a late 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 (墨åÂÂéÂÂè©Â), a corrected, definitive edition of Mozi, and Zhouli Zhengyi (å¨禮æÂ£ç¾©), 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 (å¥ÂæÂÂèÂÂä¾Â), published posthumously by Luo Zhenyu, was the first work of decipherment of the oracle bone script.
