Guo Maoqian (Chinese: 郭茂倩; pinyin: Guō Màoqiàn; Wade–Giles: Kuo Mao-ch'ien) was a Song dynasty poetry anthologist. He compiled an important[1] collection of lyrical pieces in his work Anthology of Yuefu Poetry (樂府詩集), which contains almost all of the surviving Music Bureau style, or Yuefu from the Han dynasty through the Tang dynasty and to the Five Dynasties,[2] and which includes such famous poems as "Hua Mulan".
