Sitting alone in Jingting Mountain
Lipper
The birds flew without a trace, leaving the lonely clouds free and unfettered.
Never tire of seeing it, only Jingting Mountain.
On the surface, this poem describes a person's interest in traveling in Jingting Mountain, but its deep meaning is the poet's loneliness all his life. With his peculiar imagination and ingenious conception, the poet gave life to the landscape and personified Jingting Mountain, which was very vivid. The author wrote about his loneliness, his lack of talent, but also his firmness, seeking comfort and sustenance in nature. This poem is a masterpiece of the poet to express his spiritual world.

Translation of works
Many birds fly high without a trace, and lonely white clouds float leisurely in the sky alone. The poet and Jingting Mountain looked at each other discontentedly, and only the tall Jingting Mountain could understand his loneliness at this time.
Creation background
Li Baijun 'e, the author who sits alone in Jingting Mountain, wrote this poem in 753 AD (the 12th year of Tianbao), which is considered to be a work before and after "going to Jingting Mountain and looking south to remember the past and fighting bamboo books". In 753 AD (Tianbao 12th year), Li Bai went south to Xuancheng. Before the trip, there was a poem "To send my brother Xuanzhou to be the satrap of Zhao Shi", saying, "The second assistant is Xuancheng County, and the officer is at leisure. Chang Zan Yun Yue invited me to worship Tingshan. " Li Bai has been wandering for a long time since he was released from the Hanlin ten years ago. The long-term wandering life made Li Bai taste the bitterness of the world and see through the coldness of the world, thus deepening his dissatisfaction with reality and increasing his sense of loneliness. However, his arrogance and stubbornness remain the same as before. I have been depressed because I have no talent. Physical and mental fatigue needs comfort. During this period, he wrote a lot of poems to relieve his depression by wandering around immortals and drinking, and also wrote a lot of poems to express his feelings and feelings. Sitting alone in Jingting Mountain is one of them.
Make an appreciative comment
The moving images of "birds" and "lonely clouds" sitting alone in Jingting Mountain are juxtaposed with the static images of Jingting Mountain. There are only quantitative changes in the space-time dimension and qualitative changes in the psychological dimension: literati with ideals and talents are often particularly sensitive to "passing away" and "dissipation", and their personnel are short-lived and the universe is eternal. The poet introduced the eternal mountain as his confidant, probably because he had no choice but to do it after Chang 'an was invisible. Even if Chang 'an attracts him, he doesn't know whether he will follow the "birds flying high".
In the poet's pen, Jingting Mountain has no beautiful mountains, no beautiful streams and no beautiful bridges. It is not that there is nothing to write about Jingting Mountain, because Jingting Mountain "faces Wanxi in the east and the city in the south, sailing in the vast market with picturesque scenery". From the perspective of poetry, it is impossible to know the position of the poet relative to the mountain, perhaps at the top of the mountain or in the open area, but these are not important. The purpose of writing this poem is not to praise the scenery, but to express feelings through the scenery and the quiet scenery here. The poet found solace in the anthropomorphic Jingting Mountain and seemed to feel less lonely. However, it is here that the poet's inner loneliness is more prominent. The deep loneliness in the world and the tragic atmosphere of the poet's life are full of the whole poem. The whole poem seems to be full of scenery, but it has no emotion. But because the scenery is composed of emotion, every sentence is emotion, just like Wang Fuzhi said, "There is a scene in love, and there is love in the scene."
Brief introduction of the author
Li Bai (70 1 ~ 762), whose name is Taibai, is a violet layman. He claimed that his ancestral home was Ji Cheng in Longxi (now southwest of Jingning, Gansu), and his ancestral home was Suiyeju in the Western Regions at the end of Sui Dynasty (it was the capital of Anxi in the Tang Dynasty, near tokmak in northern Kyrgyzstan). When I was young, I moved to Qinglian Township, Changlong, Mianzhou (now Jiangyou, Sichuan) with my father. Teenagers show their talents, write poems, read widely and are good at chivalry. From the age of 25, I have been wandering for a long time and experienced a lot of social life. In 742 AD (the first year of Tianbao), he was called to visit the Hanlin in Chang 'an. The style of the article was famous for a while, which was appreciated by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, but it was not taken seriously politically and was destroyed by powerful people. Only one year later, he left Chang 'an.
