Appreciate:
Magnificent rivers and mountains make extraordinary poets full of interest; The charming scenery washed away the political troubles of the talented fallen immortal. This poem has great artistic appeal.
It shows Li Bai's infinite love for the mountains and rivers of the motherland. Clear water, clear mountains, red sun and white sails constitute a colorful picture scroll, which is pleasing to the eye and amazing.
Although there are only four short sentences and 28 words, the artistic conception it constitutes is so beautiful and magnificent that people seem to be in it after reading the poem; The poet leads the reader's vision along the foggy Yangtze River to an infinitely vast world.
It makes people feel open-minded and broad-minded. From here, we can see Bai's uninhibited spirit and broad-minded mind that he doesn't want to confine himself to.
This poem is similar to Wang Zhihuan's "Climbing the Quelou", one is about the Yellow River and the other is about the Yangtze River. The situation of mountains and rivers has its own characteristics, and the artistic conception in the works is not the same.
However, as the representative works of lyric poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, their similarities are * * *, with broad artistic conception, magnificent weather, full of vigorous vitality and positive strength. Li Bai is the crown of the seven wonders of the Tang Dynasty, and he is best at creating in a limited space.
The author introduces:
Li Bai (70 1-762) is certainly recognized as one of the greatest gifted poets in ancient China, and most people think that he is also a great poet. His ancestral home is Longxi (now Gansu). He was born in Central Asia, but he lived in Shu when he was a teenager.
In his heyday, he roamed the world, learned Tao and sword, drank Ren Xia, and laughed at the prince. He once offered sacrifices, but soon left and was exiled to Yelang (now Guizhou).
In his poems, the imagination is "holding the moon in the sky", and the momentum is like "how the water of the Yellow River moves out of the sky", which is really unparalleled.
In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, people found the words "a vast expanse of smoke and mist in the flat forest" in memory of Qin E's Bodhisattva Man and Qin E's Dream of Breaking Qin Louyue, and respected them as their ancestors. Some people suspect that it was entrusted by future generations, and the lawsuit has continued so far.
