Biography

谢澹。
南史卷十九 列传第九:
  澹,字景恒,晦从叔也。祖安,晋太傅。父瑶,琅邪王友。澹任达仗气,不营当世,与顺阳范泰为云霞之交。历位尚书。宋武帝将受禅,有司议使侍中刘睿进玺,帝曰:"此选当须人望。"乃使澹摄。澹尝侍帝宴,酣饮大言无所屈,郑鲜之欲按之,帝以为澹方外士,不宜规矩绳之;然意不说。不以任寄。后复侍饮,醉谓帝曰:"陛下用群臣,但须委屈顺者乃见贵,汲黯之徒无用也。"帝大笑。景平中,累迁光禄大夫。从子晦为荆州,将之镇,诣澹别。晦色自矜,澹问晦年,答曰三十五。澹笑曰:"昔荀中郎年二十九为北府都督,卿比之已为老矣。"晦色甚愧。元嘉中,位侍中、特进、金紫光禄大夫,卒。初,澹从弟混与刘毅昵,澹常以为忧,渐疏混,每谓弟璞、从子瞻曰:"益寿此性,终当破家。"混寻见诛,朝廷以澹先言,故不及祸。
  璞字景山,幼孝友,祖安深赏爱之,位光禄勋。
