Erwin Julius Ritter von Zach (18 April 1872 – 19 January 1942) was an Austrian diplomat and sinologist noted for his studies of Chinese literature and its translation, as well as his often harsh criticism of other scholars' work. His German translations of the early Chinese anthology Selections of Refined Literature (Wen xuan 文選) and the collected poems of Li Bai and Han Yu are still the only complete translations into a Western language; he also translated the collected poems of Du Fu.
