 Well, I think it's a very good article, especially given the nature of the subject, but there are some problems that prevent me from promoting this to GA status at the moment, although nothing that I believe can't be done in seven days. 

 To begin with, the lead needs some work. Most importantly, it needs to be expanded so that it at least touches upon/covers/somewhat summarizes every major aspect of the article itself. Right now it's only two sentences long; it should a through summary would expand to one, maybe two full paragraphs. In addition, the list of his names is very awkward as it's sort of plunked down in the middle of the first sentence. I would suggest either making his list of names its own sentence in the lead (ie. ""In his time, he would have also been known by the courtesy name..."") or, if you feel up to it, try and expand and integrate it into the body of the article itself.  

 The image in the infobox requires a caption that explains the context of the picture to someone who is just reading the article and doesn't click on the picture itself. Is it a contemporary drawing of subject? Was it drawn several centuries after by artists interpreting his story? Is it a modern artists' rendition of the subject? Also, is it known who drew it or not? If so, who was the artist? 

 You seem to have access to a lot of good, reliable sources, but a lot of things remain without in-line citations in this article. Since this is a historical figure, it cannot be assumed that anything in the article is common knowledge (I mean of course, anything about the subject of the article) so everything has the potential to be challenged and thus everything should have an inline citation. For example, in ""Early life"" you stop citing after the citation for his father dying. Since known history of this period and figure are by no means complete, things like the year he passed his degree exam or that he was largely self-taught need be directly pointed to in the works that you're citing so that they can be verified (well, at least by someone who has the books...). Also, because of the lack of citations, it's hard to tell if there's any original research here. I suspect that since you're an established editor, there's not, but I have no way of verifying that without citations. Also, a non-established editor could easily slip something in that sounds convincing but is completely false - without citations its impossible to tell. This is a problem in all of the main sections, although apparentely the lead does not need to be fully cited (although it can if you choose to do so). Also, all citations need to abide by the standards set out in WP:CITET. 

 I think the prose is excellent, baring a few tiny things I fixed myself, but one thing I noticed is that the job of a ""collator of texts"" should either be briefly explained or wikilinked so that uncultured slobs like myself people who are unfamiliar with the term can get an idea of what it is. Also, all the ref tags should touch the punctuation/word that comes before it... I think I caught a lot, but not all of that. 

 The legacy section could use some expansion, if possible. He seems like an important figure - what other lasting impacts on contemporary and future culture did he have? Who else cites him as an influence or an important figure in history? You say that his poetry dealt with new themes never before touched on - did his dealing of these themes encourage others to do so or no? Did his themes last a long time or was it a passing fad? Was he chas
