Yang Hu Pai - Yoko (English spelling)

Japanese: 陽湖派 - ようこは（英語表記）Yáng hú pài

A literary school in China during the Qing Dynasty. A branch of the Tongcheng school, the largest school of classical Chinese during the Qing Dynasty. It was advocated by Yunjing and Lu Jiraku of Yanghu, Jiangsu Province, who studied classical Chinese under Liu Dayai, and Zhang Huiyan, also of Yanghu, who studied textual research. This school did not necessarily agree with the Tongcheng school's theory of righteousness and law, and moved away from adhering to Song learning to incorporate the Hundred Schools of Thought and the two teachings of Taoism and Buddhism. Its writing style also differs somewhat from that of the Tongcheng school, which stands on the orthodox side of the Tang-Song school, and attempts to combine the use of benbun.

Japanese:

中国，清代の文学流派。清代最大の古文の流派である桐城派の支派。劉大櫆（りゆうだいかい）より古文を学んだ江蘇省陽湖の惲敬（うんけい）および陸継輅（りくけいらく），考証学と兼修した同じく陽湖の張恵言（ちようけいげん）らが主唱した。この一派は桐城派の義法理論に必ずしも同調せず，宋学を墨守することから離れて諸子百家や道･仏の二教をも取り入れた。文章もしたがって唐宋派の正統に立つ桐城派とやや異なり，駢文（べんぶん）を折衷しようと試みている。
