Li Bai's achievements
1. Poetry
Li Bai's achievements in Yuefu, song lines and quatrains are the highest. The lines of his songs completely break all the inherent patterns of poetry creation. They are empty and have many styles of writing, reaching a magical realm of unpredictable and swaying at will.
Li Bai's quatrains are natural, lively, elegant and unrestrained, and can express endless emotions in concise and clear language. Among the poets of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Wang Wei and Meng Haoran were good at the Five Jue, and Wang Changling and other Qi Jue wrote very well. Li Bai was the only one who was good at both the Five Jue and the Seven Jue and reached the same extreme level.
2. Ci Fu
There is still no unanimous conclusion on whether Li Bai composed Ci, but the works that are now passed down as Li Bai’s Ci, regardless of their authenticity and whether they can be classified There are about 20 poems in the style of poetry, such as "Bodhisattva Man", "Recalling Qin'e", etc.
In terms of its pioneering significance and artistic achievements, "Li Bai's Ci" enjoys an extremely high status in the history of Ci. This status is like the status of ancient Greek mythology in Western art. As an "unattainable" standard, Li Bai's poetry has become an eternal idol in people's minds. Li Bai made significant contributions to the formation of the textual model of Ci and the creation model of Ci.
