The Possibly Brief Life of Guang Hansheng, by Liang Qingsan, translated by Andy Dudak: https://clarkesworldmagazine.com/liang_05_22/

A lone enthusiast searches in microfiche archives for information about the life of a cranky, perfectionist, late-Qing era science fiction writer; what they find is largely inconclusive. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this evocative story.
