The purpose and significance of studying Li Bai's poems.

Li Bai used a variety of poetic styles, but the seven ancient poems and the seven unique poems contributed the most. These two poetic styles were also the newest and freest at that time, especially adapted to his free and bold personality. His achievements in this respect are also very effective in learning Yuefu folk songs. Seven ancient don't have to talk about, here are just a few of his famous four-line:

In the autumn of the first half of Mount Emei, the Pingqiang River reflected. In the evening, Qingxi went to the Three Gorges, but the four gentlemen did not see Yuzhou.

-"Emei Mountain Moon Song"

Early in the morning, I bid farewell to Jiangling city, which is high into the sky, thousands of miles away, and the boat is only one day away. The cries of apes on both sides of the strait are still unconsciously crowing in their ears, and the canoe has passed the heavy green hills.

-"Early Baidu City"

Old friends frequently waved to me, bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower, and traveled to Yangzhou in this beautiful spring filled with catkins and flowers. Sailing alone in the blue sky, I can see the Yangtze River flowing in the sky.

-"Yellow Crane Tower Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou"

Li Bai was just about to leave when he heard a farewell song from the shore. Even if the Peach Blossom Pond is deep, it is not as deep as Wang Lun's sending away my love.

-"To Wang Lun"

Shen Deqian's Three Hundred Tang Poems said: "Seven-character quatrains are close to feelings, and hidden words are more important. Just look at the prospects, talk, and have overtones, which makes people stay away from it, too white and embarrassed. " These characteristics he said are actually the naive natural charm of folk songs. That is to say, as far as the poem "Send Baidicheng Early" is concerned, the meaning of the whole poem comes entirely from the "martial arts" in the Notes on Shui Jing, but the natural language and joyful artistic conception are quite different from the original style. His four outstanding achievements have always been as famous as Wang Changling's, each with its own characteristics. But as far as folk songs are concerned, he surpassed Wang Changling. His Five Laws convey the simplicity and grandeur of ancient poetry in temperament style, which is often eclectic and unique. Such as "Niu Zhu's Night Sleeping Thoughts" and "Farewell to Friends" have always been cited by critics.

Li Bai inherited the rich heritage of the previous generation of poetry in his creation. The traditions he inherited were firstly Chu Ci and Yuefu folk songs in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties. He was influenced by Qu Yuan in many ways. He carried forward Qu Yuan's patriotism and indomitable spirit of struggle, and also inherited Qu Yuan's romantic creative methods, such as casting myths and legends, boldly exaggerating fantasies, and attaching importance to the inheritance of folk songs. He is exactly the same as Qu Yuan. As far as specific works are concerned, such as Farewell, Fu Liangyin, Tianmu Sleepwalking and even Shu Daonan are similar to Qu Yuan's works in mental outlook, theme, conception and syntax. He also carefully studied the works of literati in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties. Duan's Youyang Miscellaneous Notes said: "Li Bai's three manuscripts are selected, and if they are unhappy, they will burn." This legend must have some basis. He praised Jian 'an's poems, Ruan Ji, Tao Yuanming, Xie Lingyun, Xie Zhao and Bao Zhao. There are countless examples of his imitating and using the poems and songs of these poets. The poems Du Fu gave him also pointed out that his works were similar to those of Bao Zhao, Yu Xin and Yin Keng. He can't be a great romantic poet if he doesn't study his heritage carefully.
