Li Bai's Poetry and Song Style

Li Bai's poetic style is romantic and all-encompassing. He inherited the poetic revolution advocated by Chen Ziang, opposed formalism since Nanqi and Xiao Liang, and swept away the extravagance of writing style since the Southern Dynasties. Both in content and form, Tang poetry has been creatively developed.

Li Shifu's personality is strongly subjective and lyrical, and his content shows the rebellious spirit of despising vulgarity, resisting and not flattering powerful people. He praised the ranger and immortals, and was known as "Poet Xia" and "Poet Fairy", and later generations also called him poet Li Bai.

Shi Li's poems are rich in imagination, peculiar in structure, extremely exaggerated, vivid in metaphor and full of myths and legends.

Li's poems praise magnificent nature, are good at describing and praising mountains and rivers, are bold and unrestrained, and despise meticulous carving and duality arrangement. Instead, he scribbled his impressions and feelings in his mind with bold and unpredictable techniques and lines, created a unique artistic image and put on an unparalleled style.

Li Bai is good at using the language of Yuefu folk songs, rarely carving, and is natural and frank. The use of Yuefu spirit and folk song language has reached an extremely mature and liberated stage.
