  Ouyang - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ouyang, (also O'Young, Owyang, Au Yong, Auyong, Au Yeung, Au Ieong) (Simplified Chinese: 欧阳, Traditional Chinese: 歐陽) is one of the most common two-character Chinese surnames in the world, although for a surname, it falls out of the top two hundred as documented by the Language Publication Society, Beijing, in 1990.
The Song Dynasty historian Ouyang Xiu traced the Ouyang surname to Di, a prince of Yue.
In terms of distribution Ouyangs have mostly been confined to southern China, especially the areas of southern Jiangxi, central Hubei and eastern Henan, with smaller pockets in Guangdong, Sichuan, Hunan and Guangxi.

This paper applies the concept of wit to the poetry of Ouyang Xiu (1007-1072), a major figure in the Song transformation of literature.
Viewed from the witty standpoint, however, his use of incongruous juxtaposition, clever rhymes and metres, diction crafted to seem "natural," and exaggerated caricature are transfigured into delightful advantages.
Ouyang's statements on poetry justify all these aspects of his craft, without subsuming them under a single term.

However, the rhythmic structures of the poems by Ouyang Xiu and Su Shi are so completely different that it would be extremely difficult to make one musical composition that could naturally accompany both.

In seeking further justification to relate them, the analysis focuses on the alleged "transcendent" and "supra-human" elements of the two poets’; respective oeuvres, suggesting how their versions of a Chinese "fantastic" might be compared or contrasted with Romantic notions of the sublime.
It is a commonplace that Ouyang Xiu (1007–1072) was largely responsible for the Han Yu revival: Ronald Egan and others have clearly illustrated the degree to which Han influenced Ouyang’s mastery of prose style.
I demonstrate that in each case Ouyang alters his model—replacing Han’s grotesque hyperbole and shocking disorder with gentle caricature and cunningly reasoned wit.

The most prominent of the Ouyang clans historically was undoubtedly that of Yongfeng (永丰) in Jiangxi, which produced a number of scholars who reached prominence in the imperial bureaucracy.
As with many other two-character Chinese surnames, the words 欧阳 as a pair do not have inherent phrasal meaning.

To the literati painters, “its expressive content derives from his mind, and has no necessary relationship to anything the artist or the viewer thinks or feels about the object represented.

 American Poetry Review, The: Wei Qingzhi: Poet's Jade Splinters translated by Tony Barnstone and Chou Ping
Wei's twenty-volume anthology brings together a superlative collection of a form of brief jottings called shi hua, which translates as "poetry talk," or "comments on poetry." Though Wei's dates are unknown, we do know that Huang Sheng's preface to the book was written in 1244, so the book must have been compiled before then.
In fact many of Ouyang's comments are included in Jade Splinters, though in expanded, contracted, and otherwise adapted forms With one exception, therefore, we've chosen to separate out Ouyang's comments, translate them from more authoritative sources, and append them at the end.
Ouyang's modest goal in his work was to make a collection that would "aid casual conversation," and while later authors and compilers continued to value casually pithy and humorous comments, they also set more serious goals of distinguishing genres, recording virtue, and systematizing the writing of literature.

Why would Ouyang Xiu’s off-hand comments on the calligraphy of rubbings of stone inscriptions collected primarily for their historical value have much effect on critical standards in calligraphy, given that there were other critical writings much more directly on calligraphy as an art, such as those by Zhu Changwen and Mi Fu?
