Luo Guanzhong (羅貫中) was a 14th century Chinese author attributed with writing Romance of the Three Kingdoms and editing Outlaws of the Marsh, two of the most revered adventure epics in Chinese literature. Literary historians are not certain these two writers are one and the same person, or if the name was used as a pseudonym by the editor of Outlaws of the Marsh who did not want to be associated with any anti-government themes that might be found in this work.
