A Brief Introduction to the Authors of Antique and Green Laura

Li Bai (70 1 ~ 762), whose name is Taibai, is a violet layman. He claimed that his ancestral home was Ji Cheng in Longxi (now southwest of Jingning, Gansu), and his ancestral home was Suiyeju in the Western Regions at the end of Sui Dynasty (it was the capital of Anxi in the Tang Dynasty, near tokmak in northern Kyrgyzstan). When I was young, I moved to Qinglian Township, Changlong, Mianzhou (now Jiangyou, Sichuan) with my father. Teenagers show their talents, write poems, read widely and are good at chivalry. From the age of 25, I have been wandering for a long time and experienced a lot of social life. In the first year of Tianbao (742), he was called to Chang 'an to worship the Hanlin. The style of the article was famous for a while, which was appreciated by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, but it was not taken seriously politically and was destroyed by powerful people. Only one year later, he left Chang 'an. In 744, Tianbao befriended Du Fu in Luoyang. After the An Shi Rebellion broke out, he joined the Wang Yong shogunate Lilin in the 15th year of Tianbao (756), hoping to quell the rebellion. Due to the failure of Wang Yong Zheng Duo, Yelang was exiled (now Guizhou), but he was pardoned and returned to the East on his way. In his later years, he drifted to the southeast and died in Dangtu (now Anhui). His poems are mainly lyrical, showing the arrogant spirit of contempt for powerful people, expressing sympathy for people's sufferings, being good at depicting natural scenery and expressing his love for the mountains and rivers of the motherland. The poetic style is bold and unconstrained, the imagination is rich, the language flows naturally and the melody is harmonious and changeable. He is good at absorbing nutrients and materials from folk literature, myths and legends, which constitutes his unique magnificent and gorgeous colors. Li Bai is the most unique and greatest romantic poet after Qu Yuan, and reached the peak of poetic art in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. He has the reputation of "poetic immortal" and is also called "Du Li" with Du Fu. There are more than 1000 poems, including 30 volumes of Li Taibai's Collection.
