Abstract: Multi-ethnic integration is an important feature of the literary world of the Yuan Dynasty.The Xie Family of Gaochang (in today's Turpan) had frequent activities in the multi-ethnic literati circle of the Yuan Dynasty.The isolated work of Xie Bai-Liaoxun is kept in Korea and it has much to be elucidated.The objects of his farewell poems are Han Confucianism,relatives and friends in the Western Regions,Muslims in China and monks and Taoists,which proves that Chinese culture is the common spiritual wealth of all Chinese nationalities.His poems show the cultural characteristics of people in the Western Regions who are good at financial management,and the ethnic character of optimism,humor,bravery and chivalry,making them brilliant in the poetry world.In terms of genre selection,he incorporated the characteristics of Western music into the creation of Chinese poetry,and his "miscellaneous poems" such as five-sentence poems and six-character poems were unique.The sincere feelings of Xie Bai-Liaoxun's poems confirmed the close relationship among the multi-ethnic scholars in the Yuan Dynasty.The attention the poets in Western Regions paid to the imperial examination and the successive victories of the Xie Family are the new differences in the literature and history of the Yuan Dynasty.Through the discussion of these problems,it can be found that the poetry of the Yuan Dynasty has the "beauty of quantity" compared with that of the Tang and Song dynasties,which can better construct the "history of multi-ethnic Chinese literature".The discussion concerned can provide historical reference for shaping the consciousness of the Chinese nation's community.

Key words: Xie Bai-Liaoxun, farewell poems, multi-ethnicliterati circle , poetry of the Yuan Dynasty, history of Chinese literature
