Tao Yuanming, styled Yuanliang, known in the Song dynasty as Tao Qian, also called the Recluse Scholar Jingjie. He was a man of insight from the Jin dynasty, fond of lofty ideals from a young age, widely learned and skilled in writing. By his residence were five willow trees, so he called himself 'Mr. Five Willows.' Later, he served as the Magistrate of Pengze County. When a supervising official came to the county, the clerk said he should dress properly to meet him. Tao sighed and said, 'I cannot bend my waist for five pecks of rice.' He immediately resigned his seal and left. He abandoned his official salary and returned home to enjoy a simple life. Around his hermitage, he planted chrysanthemums everywhere and admired them every morning. While enjoying the pleasures of rural life, he also wrote books and established theories, producing many essays and poems that are still recited today. He wrote 'Returning Home' to express his thoughts and feelings.
