When it comes to Tang poetry, we can't help but mention Li Bai, the first poet in China. When it comes to Li Bai, we can't help but mention the wine in Li Bai's poems. Li Bai is extremely talented, eccentric, alcoholic and poetic. Du Fu said: "Li Bai has hundreds of poems about fighting wine. When I went to a restaurant in Chang 'an, the son of heaven didn't get on the boat and called himself Brewmaster. ".If we use his own poem:" Xing Han put pen to paper to shake the five mountains, and the poem becomes Xiao Ao Ling Cangzhou. "With the help of alcohol, he can dispel anxiety, incite emotions and create hallucinations, get rid of the shackles of secular interests and etiquette, and break the balance of conventional psychological modality. When he was freed from wisdom and illusion, his thoughts wandered between heaven and earth, coming and going, crossing the ages, capturing the wonderful balance in imbalance and the essential order in disorder, thus reaching the realm of wine, poetry and life. "
Li Bai's life is contradictory. Li Bai had the ambition of "saving the world" since he was a child, but he never realized that he regarded the illusion projected by the times as a real feeling and thought that his ideal could be realized in this environment. Li Bai's life is romantic. He flaunts himself, is free and easy, optimistic and upward, like an elegant and simple fairy who is not polluted by the turbid world. No matter how many contradictions and setbacks there are, he still has "God-given talents, let it go and hire!" Open-minded, waiting for the "big Pengfei Xi Town Bazi". Enjoy the splendor and prosperity of Chang 'an at the expense of destroying eyebrows and bending over. This is not the happy hometown that the poet wants. Life is not satisfactory in the world, so he simply goes home by boat.
Contradiction and romance make it inevitable that Li Bai loves wine. Persist in romance in contradiction, and fight against contradiction with romance. This fierce collision is thrilling, and the poet can forget the pain in the world of wine and get a moment's relaxation.
Because Li Bai is romantic, his drinking poems are always full of cheerful and optimistic emotions. But the iron reality will never reach the romantic ideal, and it is impossible not to suffer.
Below, we will analyze Li Bai's poems and wine from three aspects: wine can express one's feelings, wine can relieve one's worries, and wine can be unrestrained. We feel the contradiction and romance of the poet.
A glass of wine can illustrate a person's ambition.
Li Bai has been trying to pursue an ideal lifestyle all his life. He tried Confucianism, Taoism, immortality, chivalry and elegance, but in the end he didn't find his own life position. This is not Li Bai's regret, on the contrary, it is Li Bai's meaning. The contradiction between Confucianism's entry into the WTO and Taoism's wandering immortals, the fame and wealth and chivalry of strategists, lofty ideals and cruel reality dominate the poet's fate. It's really "hard to go, hard to go!" It is difficult to go to the sky! " Therefore, poets take wine as a song and fight against fate. This fierce collision is thrilling.
Try to use the whip of the king to command Rong Lu to sit at the table. The south wind swept Hu away and went to Chang 'an in the west to Japan. "Li Bai expressed his lofty ambition and lofty ideal of protecting the world and helping the people in the world with poems in Song of the Forever King. In particular, I wrote in "Into the Wine": "God-given talents, let it go and hire! , spin a thousand silver, all come back! " And it is really a "natural carving". At this time, wine has become a symbol rather than a pure wine. His "Children of Nanling Go to Beijing" is written as "singing drunk and masturbating, dancing brilliantly in the sunset", and even expresses the ambition of "going out with a smile, my generation is a wormwood". It can be seen that his lofty ambition is beyond pen and ink, and his confident style is still admired by the world today. Sometimes I ride the wind and waves, raise my muddy sails and build bridges on the deep sea. Li Bai, the general manager, fantasizes that he can realize his ambition of "doing his best and helping others" and establish the great cause of "saving the world". However, in reality, it always hits a wall. Li Bai's life is uneven, and it is also a life of constant pursuit of ideals and indomitable struggle. This ideal of saving the world has not degenerated into old age. His "Send Money to Zheng Yang": "White jade with a glass of wine, green poplar in March. The spring breeze can sway for a few days, and you and I are gray at the temples. I only drank wine all night at night, so it's not too late to catch the fishing rod. If you hunt in Weichuan, you can still be an emperor. "Give people the ideal of a poet, and have the ambition of" the martyr's old age, endless center of gravity "." "It's not too late to make a comeback and help the people. However, Liang didn't get much attention. The poet just "wandered around, drank too much, and even got drunk." (In Li) I also sighed to the sky: "Catch Aoxin with an empty heart, and then leave the palace. "Wine has become the poet's best adjustment, and it has also become the greatest comfort after the poet's ambition is shattered. However, Li Bai's poems are always expressing his ambition, or the sadness, depression, loss and distress after writing his ambition are concrete manifestations of the poet's active use of the world.
Two drinks to worry about:
Because Li Bai can't show lofty feelings in reality, he often seems sad and inexplicable. Poets stumble in the ups and downs, and use wine as a tool to relieve sadness. He pinned his helplessness and sadness on drinking. "It's even sadder to raise a glass, but since the water is still flowing, although we use swords to cut it, life is not satisfactory in the world, I will loosen my hair tomorrow and take a fishing boat", which shows the bitterness, boredom, depth and heaviness of sadness. "White hair three thousand zhangs, edge sorrow as long? I wonder where I can find autumn frost in the mirror? " What is more obvious is that a haggard poet groans helplessly. "From a pot of wine among the flowers, I drank it alone. No one is with me. Raise my cup, I invite the bright moon, which brings me its shadow and makes us three people. Alas, the moon cannot drink water, and my shadow follows me blankly. Lonely! Li Bai and the bright moon alone, facing the bright moon and shadow, seem to form a picture of three people drinking in hallucinations. On this spring night, Li Bai was singing and dancing while drinking, and the moon shadow fluctuated with his mood, as if sharing his joy and sadness in drinking. How lonely, how lonely, but behind this great loneliness, what kind of deep sorrow and great pain? . "Five horses with flowers, a thousand gold beads, and a shout of wine will be enough for generations to come!" It's so deep and wide, it's scary! The function of wine is so terrible. The water that never returns is like the lost years. Why should depression be used and not used in life? Being able to stay sober for a long time, having fun together and eliminating eternal worries is the fastest life. Think about it, how happy is this wine? However, with frustrated loneliness and fear of not being reused, these are all wishes, and they are all desires that they want to do but can't do. Even if you are drunk, it is only temporary paralysis at most! Li Bai used the word "drinking and having fun" to express his resentment at despising fame and wealth and indulging in drinking and having fun. In fact, it can also be seen that Li Bai is suffering and struggling in the contradiction between frustration in seeking use and seclusion thinking.
Three wines are unrestrained.
"Don't love wine, wine star. If the land does not love wine, there should be no Jiuquan in the land. " In Li Bai's poems, bold feelings are often mentioned. Although he is brilliant in heart and his life is like a dream, his attitude towards life is still bold and unconstrained, and he still writes with optimistic brushstrokes: "Three cups spit promises, five mountains are light." After dizziness and ear fever, the spirit is neon. "Poets express their indomitable pursuit with wine when dealing with the contradiction between reality and ideal." Entrusted to play Meng, drunk into Xinfeng. Laugh a glass of wine and kill people into the market. "This image is the hero image that the poet yearns for most, and it is also the most bold and free symbol in the poet's works.
"Bow rush Nanshan tiger, hand is too soft. Elegant after drinking, three cups of nod. " This kind of heroic spirit of the ranger is the ideal hero of the poet, serving the motherland, making contributions, giving full play to his military strategy and martial arts, and helping the world, which is reflected in this heroic momentum. "Pride can't say, chivalrous hall to keep for a long time. Good saddle, good horse, begging, fifteen thousand spinning wine. " The poet can't wait, and he hopes to be reused by the court as soon as possible. "One day I will ride the wind and waves", the poet's self-confidence makes his poems show heroic momentum everywhere. "Take off my hat and smile at you. Drink your wine, song for you. Sean doesn't drive the red pine away, and Huangshi knows my heart by the bridge. " How free and easy, how natural and unrestrained. However, poets always run into a wall. After vicissitudes of life, he wants to sweep away all the symbols of obstacles. "Do a good job in Junshan, sprinkle Hunan water, drink unlimited wine in Baling, and get drunk and kill Dongting in autumn." He also wrote, "Today's Bamboo Village Banquet is my virtuous assistant. Three cups are small, drunk and crazy. " As the saying goes, "writing a pen scares the wind and rain, and poetry makes the gods cry." (Du Fu) "Speaking of heaven and earth, poetry tells the sorrow of ghosts and gods." (Pi Rixiu). He said in the poem "Drunk from My Nephew Town": "I will meet the whip immediately, and the guests will feel sorry for each other. I want to ask them to build a sad song and have a drink, just as I have no money to buy wine. " But in the end, I will write the sword, "Change the wine and get drunk with you, and stay drunk with Wu Zhuan." How chic, how wild. Even in frequent encounters
In the confusion and difficulties, his unrestrained feelings have not diminished.
To sum up, it can be seen that Li Bai's drinking poems, whether expressing lofty sentiments, exposing reality, expressing thoughts of eating and drinking, expressing deep sorrow, or expressing bold style and deep friendship, run through his consistent romantic style between the lines. Although Li Bai is "drunk with crazy songs, who is arrogant?" It is a negative resistance to the world, but Li Bai's bold personality and ingenious art in his poems are enough to make future generations lament and linger. With amazing talent, he combined his feelings of "saving the world" with grief and indignation, "thinking about the Millennium" and "seeing Wan Li" and created a shocking and immortal poem for later generations. In particular, his drinking poems make all drinking poems at all times and all over the world feel ashamed and eclipsed.
Conclusion: Wine helps poetry flourish, and Li Bai's poems are more and more brilliant under the influence of wine, which makes us feel the contradiction and romance of the poet.
