Yáng Jiǎ 楊甲
Style name Dǐngqīng 鼎卿. Native of Chāngzhōu 昌州 (modern Sìchuān). Jìnshì of the second year of Qiándào 乾道 (1166) under Sòng Xiàozōng. The Chéngdū wénlèi 成都文類 records several poems by him but gives no biographical detail of his career. He is known almost exclusively as the original compiler of the Liù jīng tú 六經圖 (KR1g0006), a graphical compendium of the Six Classics (Yì, Shū, Shī, Zhōulǐ, Lǐjì, Chūnqiū), put together while he was still a commoner during the Shàoxīng 紹興 era (1131–1162) and subsequently inscribed on stone in the Chāngzhōu prefectural school — a fact recorded by Wáng Xiàngzhī’s 王象之 Yúdì jì shèng bēi mù. The original stelae are not extant; the work passed into circulation only through the augmented and re-edited Qiándào-era recension by Máo Bānghàn 毛邦翰 (毛邦翰).
