Yīn Pán 殷璠 (fl. mid-8th c.) was an early/mid-Táng critic and anthologist from Dānyáng 丹陽, who held the jìnshì and later retired. He is the compiler of two of the most important high-Táng critical anthologies: the Héyuè yīnglíng jí 河嶽英靈集 (KR4h0009), which selects 234 poems by 24 poets active between the Jiǎyín of Kāiyuán 2 (714) and the Guǐsì of Tiānbǎo 12 (753), each fronted with a critical píngyǔ 評語 by Yīn himself; and the Dānyáng jí 丹陽集 (preserved only in fragments). His prefaces in the Héyuè yīnglíng jí and its Jílùn 集論 are landmark documents of mid-Táng poetic criticism — formulating the slogan shēnglǜ fēnggǔ 聲律風骨 (“phonic regulation and bone-character”) and naming the Kāiyuán 15 (727) turning-point at which prosodic technique and substantive moral force came together for the first time. Standard biographies do not exist; his life is reconstructed from his prefaces. CBDB has no entry. No firm lifedates are recoverable.
