Li Bai and Du Fu are two superstars in the Galaxy of China ancient literature. "If you combine the vertical and horizontal jun, you will become super-sudden, and the disease will be like thunder, the wind will be like rain, and the song will also be; The location is tight, the ribs are connected, the moon walks, and I am familiar with the road. Well done. Taibai is closer to the Song Dynasty and Shaoling is closer. " (Hu Yinglin: Poems, Volume III)
The spirit of the prosperous Tang Dynasty nurtured Li Bai, and the decline of the prosperous Tang Dynasty ruthlessly shattered his expectations. The sharp contradiction between ideal and reality arises from this, which constitutes the basic content of positive romantic spirit in Li Bai's poems.
In his early years, he was deeply influenced by the culture of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and his attitude towards life was basically prosperous. His poetry creation was also influenced by the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and he sang his own ideals. However, due to the huge flow of social contradictions, he was involved in the bottom of life, which brought him into contact with the "An Shi Rebellion" and the reality of suffering people. Coupled with the failure of seeking an official position, he gradually turned from pursuing the ideal life realm to realistic thinking about life, and his depressed mood replaced his early pride, eventually becoming the greatest realistic poet in ancient China and a great poet in the transitional period between the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the middle Tang Dynasty.
