Who was Achilles Fang?
Achilles Fang was a sinologist and comparatist. He was held in great esteem by those who knew him in life; Marianne Moore called him "the word wizard." His correspondence with Ezra Pound significantly influenced Pound's understanding of Chinese subjects, and his doctoral dissertation on Pound, an attempt to compile all the allusions in The Cantos, remains an important source for Pound scholars.
