Yang Mu (Chinese: 楊牧; pinyin: Yáng Mù, September 6, 1940 - March 13, 2020) is the pen name of a Taiwanese poet, essayist and critic in Chinese language. He was born as Wang Ching-hsien (王靖獻) on 6 September 1940 in Hualien County, Taiwan. As one of the representative figures in the field of contemporary Taiwanese literature, he is famous for combining the graceful style and writing techniques of Chinese classical poetry with elements of Western culture. Apart from romantic feelings, his works also reflect strong awareness of humanistic concern, which has thus brought him widespread attention and high respect. He was named the laureate of the 2013 Newman Prize for Chinese Literature, making him the first poet and the first Taiwanese writer to win the award.
