Biography

王宗望,光州固始人。
宋史卷三百三十 列传第八十九:
  王宗望,字磻叟,光州固始人。以荫累擢夔州路转运副使。哲宗即位,行赦赏军,万州弥旬不给。庖卒朱明因众怒,白昼入府宅,伤守臣,左右惊散,他兵籍籍谋兆乱。宗望闻变,自夔疾驱至,先命给赏,然后斩明以徇,且窜视守伤而不救者。乃自劾,朝廷嘉之。历仓部郎中、司农少卿、江淮发运使。
  楚州沿淮至涟州,风涛险,舟多溺。议者谓开支氏渠引水入运河,岁久不决,宗望始成之,为公私利。代吴安持为都水使者。自大河有东、北流之异,纷争十年,水官无所适从。宗望谓回河有创立金堤七十里,索缗钱百万,诏从之。右正言张商英论其诞谩,而宗望奏已有成绩,遂增秩三等,加直龙图阁、河北都转运使,擢工部侍郎,以集贤殿修撰知郓州。卒,年七十七。元符中,治其导河东流事,以为附会元祐,追所得恩典云。
