Comment on Ai Qing s I Love This Land;
Ai Qing, together with Nie Luda and West Tomek, is known as "the three great people's poets in the 20th century". Ai Qing's important poems were completed in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period. I Love This Land: Ai Qing's Poems of Anti-Japanese War, edited by Ai Dan, the son of Ai Qing, and published by China Youth Publishing House, has recently been officially published.
During the Anti-Japanese War, Ai Qing entered the peak of poetry creation in the rumble of gunfire. As he said, when I wake up in the morning, my mind is full of dew and full of impulse to write poetry.
During this period, he created a series of famous works, such as I love this land, and realized the poeticization of national spirit with strong patriotism and sense of hardship, eager call for freedom and superb poetic skills.
It is out of the desire for spiritual freedom that Ai Qing takes free poems as his main writing form. In his view, free verse is the product of the new world and can better adapt to the fierce and turbulent times.
Ai Qing's anti-Japanese war poems originated from a free mentality, which is not only full of free spirit in content, but also unwilling to be bound by existing rules and procedures in form.
His vision is broad, and his reference to Whitman's free poems and Vaharun's French symbolism poems makes him show great freedom in the choice of images and the creation of artistic conception. His gloomy artistic style presents a kind of sublime beauty and suffering beauty, which represents the achievements of China's liberal poetry creation.
