Li He (790-8 16) was a unique romantic poet in the middle Tang Dynasty. In the dilemma of career and poverty and illness, he only spent 27 years of his life. Although life is short, Li He, as the grandson of the Tang King, witnessed the darkness of the dynasty, the decline of the country and his own ups and downs, so he was furious and agitated. He integrated this kind of thought and emotion into his own creation, forming a poetic style of "dragon auspicious style" Li He's genius is magical. He combines the past with the present and creates his own way. With his extraordinary creativity, he left more than 240 poems for people, which stood out from the crowd in the history of Tang poetry and was far behind by future generations. To sum up, it has the following artistic characteristics.
Li He's poetry, with its rich and peculiar imagination and fantastic ideas, has brought people into a mysterious and colorful artistic realm. Rich and peculiar imagination and whimsy are one of the factors of Changji's success. Li He's poems are full of passion and thoughts. No matter what theme, after the poet's rich imagination and completely different artistic ideas, the pictures are colorful and innovative. Imagination plays an important role in Tang poetry, which is closely related to metaphor and exaggeration. Many vivid metaphors and strange exaggerations come from the poet's rich imagination. Li Bai and Li He are both models.
However, the biggest difference between Li He and Li Bai is that the imagination of Li He's poems is very strange, and he skillfully uses a lot of synaesthesia to make people understand objective things more comprehensively and clearly, thus gaining a higher level of aesthetic enjoyment. Make the work more artistic and shocking, and achieve the effect of attacking people's hearts and spleen. Fantasy, illusory and unprovoked. For example, Listening to Piano Music was written by Li He after listening to the piano performance in Chang 'an as Feng. It describes Ying Shi's wonderful piano sound and praises his superb piano skills. There are many artistic techniques used in the poem to describe the fortune of Qin, such as "Talking with Two Winds" and "Knocking on Water Jade", as well as the martial arts of "carrying a long bridge with a sword" and the calligraphy of "dipping in Chun Zhu", which are refreshing.
He also used synaesthesia to write Visual Hearing. "Don't go back to the clouds", "hibiscus leaves fall" and "autumn leaves fall" are used to describe the quiet and graceful sound of the piano, and the king of Yue visited Tianmu Mountain at night and rode a deer across the river to describe the lightness and elegance of the piano rhyme. It is even more ingenious and amazing. The use of synaesthesia makes this poem inspiring, interesting and lasting. Fascinated and want to fall into the sky. For example, in Dream of Heaven, the poet imagines the dim light of the moon as the tears of toads and rabbits, and depicts the clouds in the sky as a magnificent building. For example, the phrase "the jade wheel shows wet light" refers to the moon floating in the clouds as "the jade wheel shows dew", which is really whimsical.
"Dream of Heaven" is not only unique in image, but also unique in conception. It's strange to invite you to visit the Moon Palace. It is even more strange to suddenly turn to the exploration of philosophy; In artistic conception, it has changed a lot. Fantastic imagination, ingenious conception. For example, The Golden Boy Ren Xian Ci Han Ge is a poem that Li He has always been familiar with. The metaphor of "Remembering the monarch and clearing tears like lead water" is extraordinary, vividly writing the pain of nostalgia and parting of the golden bronze immortals-tears dripping. The sentence "If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old" is particularly fantastic in imagination, expressing the ruthless feelings of history. Its artistic charm lies in its multi-layer implication, moral and profound philosophy.
Secondly, the artistic conception of Li He's poems is hazy, magnificent and cold, which constructs the aesthetic characteristics of vague meaning and context and gives people profound spiritual enlightenment and aesthetic interest. The realm of Li He's poems is mysterious and hazy, which makes people think endlessly, blurred like a dream, with boundless imagination and multi-layered implications. This is similar to that of Li Shangyin, but the difference between Li Heshi and Li Shangyin is that Li Heshi constitutes a magnificent and desolate artistic conception. Li He's poems are beautiful, quiet and dynamic, giving people the feeling of fearing God. Hazy and secluded, like smoke.
