Analysis
Analyse the following poem by Li Bai to find out more about his romantic style.
Analysis
This poem displays Li Bai's well-known romantic style. The first line, "Leaving at dawn the White Emperor crowned with cloud", makes me see an image of Li Bai leaving a mountaintop town in his boat on a beautiful morning. The second line, "I've sailed a thousand miles through canyons in a day" and the fourth line "My skiff has left ten thousand mountains far away", suggest that the poet moved away from White Emperor Town and in the direction of the canyons and that he covered many miles a day. In these lines, Li's use of exaggeration reflects his romantic style clearly. The third line uses vivid imagery that assists the reader to understand the sound Li Bai heard from the countless monkeys found along the Yangtze River: "With monkeys' sad adieus the riverbanks are loud". Furthermore, along with the fourth line, it gives me the sense of how fast his boat was moving down the river as well as how happy and excited Li Bai felt. The free expression of strong feelings is really impressive. This poem also shows where he was travelling and how his travel greatly inspired his poetry.
