fWotD Episode 3213: Zhang Jingsheng Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 20 February 2026, is Zhang Jingsheng.Zhang Jingsheng (20 February 1888 – 18 June 1970) was a Chinese philosopher and sexologist. Born Zhang Jiangliu to a merchant family in Raoping County in eastern Guangzhou, Zhang attended Whampoa Military Primary School, where he became a militant supporter of the Tongmenghui revolutionaries. After he was expelled from Whampoa, he met with Tongmenghui leader Sun Yat-sen and entered the Imperial University of Peking. He became an enthusiastic advocate of European ideas of social Darwinism, scientific racism, and eugenics, changing his personal name to Jingsheng, "competition for survival". He was an active member of the Beijing Tongmenghui cell alongside Wang Jingwei, but declined a political post in the aftermath of the 1911 Revolution, instead studying in France.Zhang received a doctorate from the University of Lyon in 1919 for a thesis on Jean-Jacques Rousseau, one of his major philosophical inspirations. On recommendation from Cai Yuanpei, he became a professor at Peking University soon after his return to China in 1920. During the early 1920s, he wrote two books advocating for a society organized around aesthetic principles. In 1926, he published Sex Histories, a sexology text based on stories of sexual encounters he gathered from the public. He was ridiculed by much of the Chinese media and academia for the book, and was often referred to by the mocking nickname Dr. Sex (性博士; Xìng Bóshì) in the tabloid press. A number of unauthorized pornographic sequels were made due to its popularity, leading to confusion about which books were Zhang's original work. He left teaching and settled in Shanghai shortly after the release of Sex Histories. He founded a "Beauty Bookshop" in Shanghai, which published sex-education texts and translations of European literature and philosophy, and edited a monthly periodical he named New Culture. In 1929, he returned to France to work as a translator after his business efforts in Shanghai failed. Four years later, he returned to his home county of Raoping and worked in local politics and education in relative obscurity. He was persecuted by the Red Guards during the Cultural Revolution and died while in confinement in 1970.Loosely inspired by Havelock Ellis, Zhang's sexual thought centers on the absorption of bodily fluids produced during sex, which he saw as important for sexual pleasure and the vitality of the resulting children. His political writings outlined a utopian "New China" which would govern society according to aesthetics and sentimentality. This "aesthetic state" would institute a national eugenics program to resolve what he perceived as the weaknesses of the Chinese race. Although he enjoyed a brief period of academic prestige for his works in the early 1920s, the scandal around Sex Histories destroyed his professional reputation, and he became disconnected from academia. Posthumous scholarly opinions on him and his work range from dismissive to highly supportive. His son Zhang Chao, a local official in Raoping, collected his works and worked to promote his legacy during the 1980s. His former home was rebuilt by the county government in 2004 and converted into Dr. Zhang Jingsheng Park. Collections of his writing began to be published during the 1980s, but a full republication of Sex Histories was not made until 2005, likely due to obscenity laws.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:06 UTC on Friday, 20 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Zhang Jingsheng on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Arthur.

Posthumous motivation is action ignited by death; driven by meaning, responsibility and duty. Grief is real. But it isn't an excuse to drift. This episode reframes loss as a signal — not to collapse, but to act. When someone close to you dies, the illusion of time disappears and responsibility sharpens. This is not a comfort episode. It's a reckoning. For men who've experienced loss and know it should have changed them — listen.

MANET'S FINAL YEARS AND THE POSTHUMOUS HONOR OF MORISOT Colleague Sebastian Smee. Following the war, Manet painted a series of intimate portraits of Berthe Morisot, capturing her erotic restlessness and "black" mourning attire. Since they could not marry, Manet seemingly facilitated her marriage to his brother, Eugène, who became a supportive husband and advocate for her art. While Morisot struggled with melancholy, she defied Édouard's advice to stick to the Salon, instead exhibiting in almost all the independent Impressionist shows. After Édouard died a painful death from syphilis, and Berthe later passed away, her colleagues Renoir, Monet, and Degasorganized a posthumous exhibition in her honor. The depth of their respect was revealed in a passionate argument between Degas and the others over how best to hang her work to ensure the public understood her brilliance. NUMBER 7

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicked off with a major announcement that had music lovers buzzing. Questlove revealed a posthumous D’Angelo album is officially on the way, describing the sound as “yesterday but for the future,” and hinting at an intimate look behind the scenes of the late neo-soul icon’s creative world. From there, the crew dove straight into a spicy debate after NBA legend Jason Williams suggested Megan Thee Stallion might be distracting Klay Thompson from performing at his best, which sparked a playful but heated back-and-forth about relationships, superstition, and whether love can really affect an athlete’s game. The episode balanced that drama with heartfelt moments as the team celebrated Rickey Smiley’s 36 years in comedy, reflecting on milestones from opening for Martin Lawrence to his long-running radio legacy. The show also addressed community news, including updates on the shutdown resolution and Reverend Jesse Jackson’s hospitalization, with listeners encouraged to keep him lifted in prayer.

The Wedding, Manet's Decline, and the Posthumous Fight Over Morisot's Legacy. Sebastian Smee discusses how in the aftermath of the "terrible year," Édouard Manet painted Berthe Morisot several times in a series Smee considers one of the greatest records of intimacy in art history. Manet resolved the situation by setting Berthe up with his brother, Eugène Manet, who proved to be a good husband who supported Berthe's dedication to painting. Despite Édouard advising against it, Berthe joined the first Impressionist exhibition, demonstrating her "incredible audacity and independence." The sad aspect was Édouard Manet's decline: he suffered from syphilis and died in agony after a leg amputation. Following Berthe Morisot's death (she contracted an illness while tending to her sick daughter, Julie), Renoir, Degas, and Monet came together to stage a posthumous exhibition to honor her. The process was volatile because each painter felt a fierce, private relationship with her work. In the 20th century, Morisot was often overlooked by male critics who dismissed her domestic subject matter, though her peers viewed her art as innovative and brilliant.
"The number changes, but as of the writing of this description, only 1883 songs have topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart including all its earlier versions.
