Peter Tsung Kei Wong 王棕琦 is an intellectual and literary historian interested in the complex interaction between textual culture, historiography, classical studies, poetry, philosophy, and political culture in early China. He is working now on two book projects; the first concerns the unlikely rise of the big book as a textual form in ancient China, and the second on how the usurper Wang Mang (45 BCE–23 CE) reinvented the classical tradition and political culture of China. He is the author of "Inventing the Spring and Autumn Period: How Numerology Shaped History and Historiography in Ancient China" (The Journal of Asian Studies, 2024), “The Soundscape of the Huainanzi: Poetry, Performance, Philosophy, and Praxis in Early China” (Early China, 2022), “What is the Nature of ‘the Unperturbed Mind-heart 不動心’ in Mencius 2A:2?” (Hanxue yanjiu 漢學研究, 2021), and "On the Compositional Structure of the Huainanzi" (M.Phil. Thesis, 2019).
