Mount Emei Yuege
Tang Dynasty: Li Bai
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.
In front of the towering Mount Emei, there is a half moon. The flowing Pingqiang River reflects the moon. Set out by boat at night, leave Qingxi and go straight to the Three Gorges. Miss you, hard to meet, reluctant to part with Yuzhou.
Extended data
First, the creative background
This poem is from the eighth volume of the Complete Works of Li Taibai, which was written by Li Bai when he was young. Emei Mountain is the mountain in the middle of Shu and the name of Shu. Li Bai is a native of Shu, so Mount Emei is also the hometown month. This poem was written by Li Baichu when he left Shu, and it was written before the 13th year of Kaiyuan (725).
Second, appreciate
Five place names are used in the poem in succession, which are ingenious and leave no trace. The poet passes through Emei Mountain-Pingqiang River-Qingxi-Three Gorges-Yuzhou in turn, and the poetic scene gradually unfolds a map of the Shu River for readers. Apart from the "Emei Mountain Moon", there is almost no more specific description of the scenery in the poem; Except for the word "four kings", there is no lyric.
However, the artistic image of "Emei Mountain Moon" runs through the whole poetic realm and becomes a catalyst for poetic sentiment. It has rich implications: the mountains and the moon accompany Wan Li, which can be seen every night, making the feeling of "missing you" deeper and deeper. The bright moon is approachable and unattainable, which is a symbol of missing friends. Where there is a bright moon singing, where there is a feeling of missing friends in the river, which is intoxicating.
Using five place names in a row can make a trip in an exquisite place, which is both heroic and homesick. The language flows naturally, just like "clear water produces hibiscus, natural carving"
