Jiǎng Miǎn 蔣冕 (1462–1532, zì Jìngzhī 敬之, posthumous Wéndìng 文定), of Quánzhōu 全州 (modern Guǎngxī). Míng Chénghuà 23 (1487) jìnshì. Held zhōngshū shèrén (Drafter of the Imperial Secretariat); rose to Lìbù shàngshū, Wényuān gé dàxuéshì (Grand Secretary), and Tàizǐ tàifù under Zhèngdé and early Jiājìng. Resigned and retired during the Dà lǐyì 大禮議 (Great Rites Controversy) under Jiājìng (1521 onward).
Jiǎng’s contribution to the corpus is editorial: he compiled the present 2-juǎn form of Cáo Yè’s 曹鄴 Cáo Cíbù jí (= KR4c0085) and appended a 1-juǎn recovery of Cáo Táng’s 曹唐 verse on the principle that both poets were of Yuèxī (Guǎngxī) origin like himself. The combined edition is one of the early Míng moves toward xiāngbāng (regional sub-anthology) consciousness, anticipating later Yuèxī shīxuǎn Qīng provincial-poetry compilations.
Jiǎng’s other works (separately catalogued elsewhere) include the Xiānggāo zòu yì (his ministerial memorials), the Quányǎ (a regional cultural compilation), and his collected works Xiānggāo wén jí. CBDB has no matching entry; standard reference works include the Míngshǐ biography in lièzhuàn 78.
