Huang Te-shih

Huang Te-shih (Chinese: 黃得時; November 5, 1909 - February 18, 1999), a native of Shulin District, New Taipei City, was a scholar, researcher of Chinese and Taiwanese literature, journalist, writer, and translator in Taiwan. He was also a professor at National Taiwan University.

Huang's works span across both old and new styles, and he employed both Chinese and Japanese languages in his writings. His historical research covered a broad range such as Taiwanese literary history, Taipei regional history, temple history in Taiwan, research on the May Fourth Movement, and the construction of Japanese cultural history. In addition, he held positions in several literary magazines and journals, nurturing numerous younger literary talents. His dedication to children's literature, research, and compilation of folk songs and traditional songbooks, as well as his studies in Taiwanese puppetry, all showcase his comprehensive and diverse academic interests.

Despite experiencing three strokes in his life, he continued to pursue knowledge and was honored with the National Award for Arts. He is often referred to as the "living encyclopedia of Taiwanese literature".
