1, goodbye Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou Li Bai
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.
2. Li Bai's "Early Making Baidicheng"
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.
3, "Looking at Tianmen Mountain" Li Bai
The Yangtze River splits the Tianmen Peak like a giant axe, and the green river flows around the island. The green hills on both sides are neck and neck, and a boat meets leisurely from the horizon.
4, "Looking at Lushan Waterfall" Li Bai
The purple mist is illuminated by sunlight, and the waterfall hangs in front of the mountain. On the high cliff, it seems to be thousands of feet high, which makes people think that the Milky Way has fallen from heaven to earth.
5, "Out of the Plug" Wang Changling
It is still the moon and border pass in Qin and Han dynasties, and the enemy has fought a protracted war. If Wei Qing, who attacked Longcheng, and Li Guang, the flying general, were alive today, the Huns would not be allowed to go south to spend their horses in Yinshan.
Introduction of seven-character quatrains:
Seven-character quatrains are a genre of China's traditional poetry, which belongs to the category of modern poetry. There are four poems in this style, each with seven words, and there are strict metrical requirements in rhyme and adhesion. The poetic style originated from Yuefu songs in the Southern Dynasties or Yuefu folk songs in the Northern Dynasties or folk songs in the Western Jin Dynasty, and its stereotypes matured in the Tang Dynasty. Li Bai and Wang Changling are two people who represent the highest achievements of the Four Wonders. Wang Changling took the lead and made great efforts to create seven miracles.
In his works, the themes of the seven wonders have been greatly expanded, such as joining the army, going out to the fortress, thinking ahead, seeing off, hunting, feasting, worshipping Buddha, worshiping Taoism, thinking of women, complaining about the palace and so on. All of them can be expressed by the four wonders, which expands the influence of the four wonders in poetry. Li Bai's seven-character quatrains can better reflect the typical characteristics of quatrains in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. In the middle Tang Dynasty, there were many poets who were good at the Four Musts, such as Li Yi and Liu Yuxi, but their basic methods did not break through their predecessors.
In the late Tang Dynasty, the Seven Wonders had a new development in the hands of Du Mu, Li Shangyin and Wen. In the early Tang Dynasty, the number of seven-character quatrains was small and the subject matter was narrow, which had little influence on the poetry circle and the art was not mature enough. Not only does it not completely coordinate the rhythm, but its style is quite stagnant (such as the first half of a metrical poem) and lacks long rhyme. Famous poets in the early Tang Dynasty, such as Shen Quanqi and Song, were good at writing regular poems, but the level of seven-character regular poems was average.
