Du Yaquan (in Chinese: 杜亚泉, 1873 - December 6, 1933), originally named Weisun (炜孙), courtesy name Qiufan (秋帆), pseudonym Yaquan (亚泉), also signed as Cangfu (伧父) was an encyclopedic scholar and a pioneer in advocating and disseminating science in early 20th-century China, translating a large number of Western and Japanese scientific works and literature into Chinese. In his later years, he participated in the compilation of numerous textbooks. He was from Cangtang Township, Shanyin County [zh], Shaoxing Prefecture [zh], Zhejiang (now part of Changtang Town, Shangyu City). During the May Fourth Movement and the New Culture Movement, he was a leading figure of the Oriental Culture School [zh], advocating for the reconciliation of Eastern and Western cultures, promoting pluralistic, moderate, and gradual enlightenment ideals, and engaging in heated literary debates with Chen Duxiu and others who criticized Confucianism and traditional Chinese morality.
