Appreciation of Wang Lushan Waterfall:
This is a landscape poem written by the poet Li Bai when he lived in seclusion in Lushan Mountain at the age of about fifty. This poem vividly depicts the magnificent scenery of Lushan Waterfall and reflects the poet's infinite love for the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. The first sentence is "Purple smoke from the Rizhao incense burner". "Incense burner" refers to the incense burner peak of Lushan Mountain. This peak is in the northwest of Lushan Mountain, with a sharp and round shape, like a censer. Because of the waterfall, water vapor transpiration, in the bright sunshine, as if there is an indomitable spirit incense burner, purple smoke rises in Ran Ran. A word "health" vividly describes the scene of smoke rising. This sentence set a magnificent background for the waterfall, and also rendered the atmosphere for the following direct description of the waterfall.
Creative background:
These two poems are generally believed to have been written by Li Bai when he visited Lushan Mountain for the first time on his way to Jinling around 725 AD (13th year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty). Professor Wu Xiaoru believes that these two poems of Li Bai are different in genre and partly repetitive in content, which are not temporary works. According to Ren Hua's poem Miscellaneous Words for Li Bai, Mr. Zhan Ai thinks that the first five ancient poems were written by Li Bai before he entered Chang 'an (Kaiyuan period). It is also believed that the second four-line poem was written in 756 AD (Tianbao 15th year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty) at the turn of summer and autumn when Li Bai arrived in Lushan Mountain. ?
