Legend:
According to Zhu Mu's Yu Fang Sheng Lan in Song Dynasty, Li Bai wanted to give up when he was studying in Xiangershan. After crossing a stream, he saw an old woman grinding an iron pestle and asked her what she was doing. The old woman replied that she wanted to grind it into a needle. So Li Bai realized that learning was as persistent as grinding an iron pestle into a needle, so he went back to study hard.
It is widely rumored that Li Bai was drunk and drowned. Because of this legend, he was honored as Wang Zhiyi, a narcissus in the sea, and believed that Li Bai, a great literary master, could also protect sailors, fishermen and business travelers on the water in another world.
Impact:
Li Bai's poetic style is romantic and all-encompassing. He inherited the poetic revolution advocated by Chen Ziang, opposed formalism since Nanqi and Xiao Liang, and swept away the extravagance of writing style since the Southern Dynasties. Both in content and form, Tang poetry has been creatively developed.
Liang Jie, a painter in the Song Dynasty, painted a poem that was too white. The Qing painter Lengmei painted a peach and plum garden for the Spring Festival banquet. Ezra pound, a great American poet, translated Li Bai's poems in English. T S Eliot, a great English poet, thinks that Pound's translation of Li Bai's poems is "a lasting and decisive contribution to the process of English poetry".
