Fèi Zhí 費直
Zì Zhǎngwēng 長翁. Western Hàn 西漢 Yì master, native of Dōnglái 東萊 (modern Shāndōng). Founder of the “Fèi school” Yì — an ancient-script (gǔwén 古文) line of transmission that stood apart from the four orthodox imperial-academy schools (孟喜 Mèng Xǐ, Shī Chóu 施讎, Liáng Qiū Hè 梁丘賀, 京房 Jīng Fáng). The Fèi Yì used the Wings (shíyì 十翼) to interpret the canonical text rather than relying on the xiàngshù 象數 calendrical correlations of the Mèng-Jīng school. The Fèi tradition was continued by Chén Yuán 陳元, 馬融 Mǎ Róng, and 鄭玄 Zhèng Xuán, and through them was the principal line that fed into 王弼 Wáng Bì’s yìlǐ 義理 reading. The original commentary is lost; Hànshū (juan 88, Rúlín zhuàn) gives him a brief notice.
