Hú Yìnglín 胡應麟 (1551–1602), zì originally Yuánruì 元瑞, changed to Míngruì 明瑞, hào Shǎoshì shānrén 少室山人 / Shíyángshēng 石羊生, of Lánxī 蘭溪 (Zhèjiāng). Took the jǔrén in Wànlì 4 (1576); never jìnshì. Travelled in the Hòu Qī Zǐ orbit of Lǐ Pānlóng and Wáng Shìzhēn, becoming the leading second-generation theoretical voice. He is the author of the Shīsǒu 詩藪 — the most influential single Míng shīhuà — and of the Sìbù zhèngé 四部正譌 (Corrections to Errors in the Four Divisions), foundational for Míng biànwèi (forgery-detection) scholarship. His jìsòng yānbó (broad memorization) was widely praised in the Sìkù tíyào. His literary collection is the Shǎoshì shānfáng jí KR4e0218 — a 120-juǎn consolidation by Jiāng Zhànrán of about 20 separately-circulated sub-collections, with appended Wáng Shìzhēn-authored Shíyángshēng zhuàn.
