Step 3 Clarify the logical relationship
Given his personal experiences and the historical background, it is only natural to see that majority of Li Bai's poems are characterized by the romantic style. Even the most uninformed reader would not fail to be impressed by the poet's rich imagination. The moon and stars in the sky, the natural landscape and the figures in legends all become a vehicle for his imagination. Equally impressive is Li Bai's free expression of strong feelings, which breathes vitality into the lifeless objects he describes, and which distinguishes from other landscape poets. These features are inseparable from Li Bai's wide use of exaggeration, metaphor and other artistic techniques. The poem below, written in his fifties, is representative of his romantic style.
