Lipper
Say goodbye to Bai Di,
Thousands of miles in Jiangling, one day.
Apes on both sides of the Taiwan Strait kept crying.
The canoe has crossed Chung Shan Man.
Appreciation of Li Bai's poems
After the "An Shi Rebellion" broke out, middle-aged Li Bai joined Li Lin, the shogunate of Wang Yong, with strong patriotism and political enthusiasm, hoping to "sweep away the dust" and wipe out the Central Plains in order to serve the country. However, shortly after Wang Yong's defeat, Li Bai was convicted of "disobedience" and began to be detained in Xunyang prison, and was later sentenced to exile Yelang. In March, the second year of Gan Yuan (759), Li Bai went to Baidi City near Wu Shan, which coincided with the release of the pardon order of "Prisoners are now confined to the world, and all the following crimes are exempt from capital crimes" in the Tang Dynasty. The poet who longed for freedom and pursued liberation all his life suddenly regained his personal freedom and was ecstatic. He immediately returned to Jiangling by boat from Baidicheng.
This poem was written by the poet on his way to Jiangling, Eastern Xia, and it shows his cheerful mood when he regained his freedom.
The site of Baidicheng is located on Dongbaidi Mountain in fengjie county, Sichuan, where Gongsun Shu lived at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He said that when he saw a white dragon jumping out of a well in front of the temple, he called himself Bai Di and called this mountain Mount Baidi. This city is Bai Di. Baidi City is high in danger, towering into the clouds and shrouded in mist, while the city faces the Yangtze River and is close to the entrance of the Three Gorges. The situation is spectacular. The first sentence "Farewell to the colorful clouds in Bai Di" means that the poet left Bai Di City. The article "Notes on Water Classics and Rivers" once wrote: "The Three Gorges is 700 Li long, with mountains on both sides without gaps. The mountains are overlapping and the sky covers the sun. There has been no sunrise since midnight. .. Sometimes I go to Baidicheng in the morning and Gangneung in the evening. In the meantime, although riding the wind, I am not sick. .. at the beginning of every sunny day, when first frost was in the forest, it was cold and sad, and there were often high apes whistling, which led to sadness, and the empty valley echoed and the sadness turned leisurely. Therefore, the fisherman sings:
The Wuxia Gorge in the Three Gorges of Badong is long, and the apes sing three times, and tears touch the skirts. The poet changed "hair" to "word" here, which made him feel full of emotion, radiant, kind and light. The word "colorful clouds" not only shows the high terrain of Baidicheng, but also shows the colorful scenery in it. At the same time, it also shows that the poet's "ci" is not a thorn road, but a secluded fairyland, which adds a joy to the poetic realm.
The second sentence, "a thousand miles away in Jiangling, one day", refers to the poet's return to Jiangling in the East. The word "a thousand miles" wrote down the distance of the journey; "Jiangling" is about 1,200 miles away from Baidicheng; The word "one day" means that the time is short. Here, the time and space of "a thousand miles" and "a day" are in sharp contrast, which vividly shows the swiftness, simplicity, simplicity and strength of flying boats, and has the meaning of "anxious to return".
The third sentence, "The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying", is what I heard from the aspect of auditory feeling. How tall are the apes in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River? Their voices are sad and sad, making people feel sad. On the way to countercurrent exile, Li Bai was full of grievances and grief. He once wrote, "How long is the moonlight? Monkeys chirp.
I can't bear to listen to my resignation, but I am still alone. "("From Badong Ship via Qutang Gorge to Wushan Peak, returning to the topic wall at night ") to express sorrow. However, the poet's mood in "Early Hair in Baidicheng" is completely different. Even the ape cried. Contrary to its sad symbolic meaning, it became tactfully affectionate, as if seeing the poet off, without giving people a sad feeling. Here, "the ape can't stop crying" is actually a manifestation of the poet's happy mood, from which we can better understand the poet's excited mood and the true meaning of "all scenery and words are sentimental", so Gui Fu, a Korean, once praised this poem in Miscellany, saying that "the beauty lies in the third sentence, which can make the spirit of childlike innocence fly over".
The fourth sentence, "The canoe has crossed Chung Shan Man", is what I saw from the instantaneous visual experience on my way home. Here, following the previous sentence, only writing the macro object of "Chung Shan Man" can not only make people realize the swiftness of Jiangzhou, but also make people feel that the poet has a broad and bright mind. From this description, we can see the poet's cheerful and relaxed mood and rekindled lofty aspirations.
Sentiment in the scenery and lyricism through the scenery are the outstanding artistic features of this poem.
Although the whole poem has no happy words, it is full of joy. In this poem, the colorful clouds in the morning, the dusk to Jiangling, the ape crying and the boat flying over Qian Shan are actually artistic images created by the combination of objective images and the poet's deep and strong feelings, and the scenery is born of emotion.
Therefore, the poem "Early Delivery from Baidicheng" is bright and eye-catching, lyrical and meaningful, and has obtained a wonderful combination of scenery and scenery.
Appreciation of Li Bai's Tang Poetry "The First Creation of Baidicheng",
In addition, this poem is also good at achieving the beauty of twists and turns through supplementary narration. The first two sentences of the poem are about the ship flying, from Baidicheng to Jiangling, just one day. Then he turned his pen and told what he saw and heard on the road. On both sides of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, green apes cry, which is one after another. Because of the fast sailing, they felt that they were crying endlessly. This sentence is actually aimed at writing that the ship is sailing at high speed, but the poet does not put pen to paper in front, but describes it from the side with "apes can't cry", which not only avoids straightforward description, but also shows the uniqueness and strangeness of the Three Gorges scenery, and also causes twists and turns in poetry. Due to the rapid flow of the Three Gorges, it is difficult for the "one-leaf boat" to "accommodate the flow" whether it goes up or down; On the contrary, because the water boat must be pulled by a fiber worker, it is easier for us to think about the weight of the boat. But the poet just wrote the word "light".
In order to describe the speed of the ship, in addition to comparing the sounds of apes and mountains, it is necessary to add a note to the ship itself, saying that the ship is fast and naturally shallow; So the poet chose the word "light". The ship is almost as light as nothing on the water, and the speed can be imagined. In terms of conception, the word "light" makes the whole poem ethereal; And from the wording; It looks so stable again. The frequent use of numerals in this poem is also a combination of reality and reality. "Thousands of miles", "one day" and "Chung Shan Man" are of course exaggerated statements (until today, we have not reached the speed of "thousands of miles a day" by boat); In fact, only "two" of "cross-strait" was written. The beauty of the whole poem lies in the word "two". It is precisely because there are mountains and apes on both sides of the strait that we can "combine the two benefits"; It is precisely because of the "balance of resources" that we can see the people on board, and we can see happiness from the tension!
This poem has always been regarded as the masterpiece of the seven wonders of Tang poetry and deserves it.
