Xie Lingyun
Xie Lingyun (Traditional Chinese: 謝靈運; Simplified Chinese: 谢灵运; Hanyu Pinyin: Xiè Língyùn; Wade-Giles: Hsieh Lingyün, 385–433), also known as the Duke of Kangle (康樂公), was one of the foremost Chinese poet of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
Born in Shangyu, Zhejiang, his ancestry was from Taikang, Henan. Xie served as an official in the Eastern Jin and Liu Song dynasties, however factional intrigues led to his dismissal and exile. Later, because of his defiant attitude, he was arrested, and because he resisted when arrested, he was captured and executed in 433.
Xie was a devout Buddhist and was considered a nature or landscape poet focusing on the "mountain and streams" (山水) instead of "field and garden" (田園) landscapes. His poetry is allusive and complex.
