Li Bai's "Drinking" in Tang Dynasty

2. Original text

Have you ever noticed how the water of the Yellow River flows out of heaven and into the ocean, never to return? Have you noticed that the lovely hair in the bright mirror in the high room, although it is silky black in the morning, has turned into snow at night.

Oh, let a man with spirit take risks where he wants to go, and never point his golden cup at the moon empty! . Since God has given talents, let them be used! As for the money, although it is scattered, it will get together again.

Cook a sheep, kill a cow, sharpen your appetite, and let me, 300 bowls, take a big drink! . Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng can drink and drink endlessly.

Let me sing you a song! Please listen to me. What are bells and drums, delicacies and treasures? I hope I will never wake up.

Ancient sober people and sages were forgotten, and only great drinkers can be immortalized. Chen bought a barrel of wine with 10 thousand gold coins at a banquet in the temple, and everyone laughed and said one-liners

Why do you say, my master, your money is gone? , to buy wine, we drink together! . Five flower horses, Hsi Chin, give them to the boy in exchange for good wine. Whatever you want, sell eternal sorrow.

Step 3 explain

Didn't you see that the water of the Yellow River fell from the sky and the waves rolled straight to the East China Sea and never came back? Can't you see that your elderly parents are sighing in the mirror about their aging white hair? When they were young, their hair was all white. When you are proud of your life, you should indulge in joy and don't let this golden cup be empty for the bright moon.

Everyone's birth must have its own value and significance. With a stroke of the pen, gold can still be recovered. Let's have fun cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle. It's not too much to drink three hundred cups at a time! Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, drink quickly. Raise your glass and don't stop.

Let me sing a song for you. Please listen to me carefully: What is the value of the luxurious life of eating delicacies all day? I just want to stay drunk. Since ancient times, sages have been lonely and lonely, and only those who can drink can leave a good reputation. Do you know the optimistic story of Cao Zhi's banquet in Wang Chen? You also drank heavily when you were fighting for wine, which made the host and guest have a good time.

Master, why do you say I don't have much money? Just buy wine and we'll drink it together. Those precious beautiful horses and expensive thousand gold foxes and furs, please change all the waiters into wine, let's eliminate this endless sorrow together!

Extended information 1. Creation background

In the early years of Tianbao of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai was recommended by Taoist wujun, and was accepted by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, ordering Li Bai to worship the Hanlin. Soon, due to the slander of powerful people, Li Bai was expelled from Beijing in Tianbao three years (744), and Tang Xuanzong paid back the money. Since then, Li Bai has been wandering around the Jianghuai area, and his thoughts are extremely annoyed, and he has once again embarked on a long journey of traveling around the mountains and rivers of the motherland.

When Li Bai wrote this poem, it was eight years since Li Bai was "given gold and returned" by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. During this period, Li Bai and his friend Cen Xun (Master Cen) were invited to Angelababy, another friend of Songshan, Yuan Danqiu. The three of them climbed the mountain, held a banquet and sang songs through wine. The poet was politically excluded and frustrated, and his ideal could not be realized. They often drown their sorrows in wine.

The joy of life is nothing more than making friends at cocktail parties, and the author is at the moment of "using the talents of the world without meeting each other", so he is full of untimely drinking to drown his sorrows.

Second, appreciate

The whole poem is full of emotion, and no matter what the mood is, it surges like a river, which is unstoppable, ups and downs and dramatic changes; Exaggeration and huge quantifiers are often used in the technique, which not only shows the poet's heroic and free-spirited feelings, but also makes the poem itself appear smooth and lyrical. Structurally, it fully embodies the characteristics of Li Bai's seven-character song.

This poem vividly shows Li Bai's unruly character: on the one hand, he is full of confidence in himself and arrogant; On the one hand, after the twists and turns in the political future, it also shows the feeling of indulgence. In this poem, Li Bai interprets Zhuangzi's philosophy of happy life and expresses his contempt for wealth and sages. But in binge drinking, eating, drinking, and having fun, there is actually a feeling of natural failure.

Three. Brief introduction of the author

Li Bai (70 1-762), whose real name is Taibai, also known as "purple laity" and "fallen fairy", was a great romantic poet in the Tang Dynasty, and was praised as "poetic fairy" by later generations, and was also called "Du Li" with Du Fu. In order to distinguish himself from two other poets, Li Shangyin and Du Mu, that is, "Little Du Li", Du Fu and Li Bai merged again.

According to the Book of the New Tang Dynasty, Li Bai is the ninth grandson of Gui Li, the king of Liang, and he is a descendant of all kings. He is cheerful and generous, loves to drink and write poems, and likes to make friends.

Li Bai has the highest achievements in Yuefu, Gexing and Jueju. His songs completely broke all the inherent forms of poetry creation, no one relied on them, and his brushwork was diverse, reaching the magical realm of unpredictability and swaying. Li Bai's quatrains are natural and lively, elegant and chic, and can express endless feelings in concise and lively language.

Among the poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Wang Wei and Meng Haoran were good at the Five Wonders, while Wang Changling and others wrote the Seven Wonders well. Li Bai is the only one who is good at both the Five Odds and the Seven Odds.

Li Bai's poems are magnificent and elegant, and his artistic achievements are extremely high. He eulogized the mountains, rivers and beautiful natural scenery of the motherland, with bold and unrestrained style, elegant and fresh, full of romantic spirit, and achieved the unity of content and art, so he was called the "fallen fairy". His poems mainly described the mountains and rivers and expressed his inner feelings.

Li Bai's poems have the artistic charm of "the pen is shaken by the wind and rain, and the poem makes the gods cry", which is also the most distinctive artistic feature in his poems. Li Bai's poems are full of self-expression and subjective lyricism, and the expression of feelings is overwhelming. He and Du Fu are called "Big Du Li" (Li Shangyin and Du Mu are called "Little Du Li").

In Li Bai's poems, imagination, exaggeration, metaphor and personification are often used comprehensively to produce magical brilliance and magnificent artistic conception, which is the reason why Li Bai's romantic poems give people heroic, unrestrained, elegant and immortal.
