works appreciation

This poem uses simple landscape writing techniques to immerse readers in the clear moonlight of Emei Mountain, the gurgling sound of Pingqiang River and the fast sailing of canoes from Qingxi to the Three Gorges. The whole poem is one of Li Bai's masterpieces with simple language, fluent rhyme, beautiful artistic conception and natural style.

The poem begins with "Emei Mountain Moon", pointing out that the season of traveling far away is in autumn. The word "autumn" is upside down at the end of the sentence because of its rhyme. Autumn is crisp and the moonlight is bright ("autumn moon is bright"). The word "autumn" also describes the beauty of moonlight, which is natural and wonderful. The moon is only "half a circle", which reminds people of the beautiful artistic conception of the castle peak spitting the moon.

The second sentence "shadow" refers to the shadow of the moon, and the verbs "enter" and "flow" form a linked predicate, indicating that the shadow of the moon is reflected into the river and goes with it. According to life experience, the moon shadow in the water is fixed, no matter how the river flows, the moon shadow is motionless. "When the moon is gone, I will go." Only when the viewer goes down the river will he see the wonderful scenery of "shadow into the river"

Therefore, this sentence not only describes the beautiful scenery of Qingjiang River reflected by the moon, but also describes the darkness of sailing in autumn night. Artistic conception can be described as ethereal and wonderful. There is someone in the second sentence, and the person in the third sentence has appeared: he is leaving Qingxi Station overnight, entering the Minjiang River and heading for the Three Gorges. Young people who "go to the countryside with swords and shadows and leave their loved ones to travel far away" will be reluctant to leave their hometown.

Seeing the moon on the river is like seeing an old friend. However, the bright moon is not an old friend after all. I can only "look up at the bright moon and send my feelings for thousands of miles." The last sentence, "I miss you, but I can't see Yuzhou", can be described as infinite separation.

Five place names are used in the poem in succession, which are ingenious and leave no trace. The poet passes through Emei Mountain-Pingqiang River-Qingxi-Three Gorges-Yuzhou in turn, and the poetic scene gradually unfolds a map of the Shu River for readers. Apart from the "Emei Mountain Moon", there is almost no more specific description of the scenery in the poem; Except for the word "four kings", there is no lyric.

However, the artistic image of "Emei Mountain Moon" runs through the whole poetic realm and becomes a catalyst for poetic sentiment. It has rich implications: the mountains and the moon accompany Wan Li, which can be seen every night, making the feeling of "missing you" deeper and deeper. The bright moon is approachable and unattainable, which is a symbol of missing friends.
