Selected Poems of Ai Qing 1 Notes
Ai Qing, a native of Jinhua, Zhejiang, was brought up by a nanny in the countryside, so she developed an attachment to the land and people. He had a rough road to study, and his tuition was interrupted against his father's wishes. In his early works, most of them showed a feeling of depression and resentment. In his painting experience, his sense of color and three-dimensional thinking mode had a great influence on his later poetry creation.
This collection of poems introduces and expounds their views in the materials. They think that 1937- 194 1 is the climax of Ai Qing's creation and the concentrated expression of his highest artistic achievements, while his early and late works are the foreshadowing, transition and ending. Poetry selection is mainly based on objective evaluation. There are many works in the climax period, and the early and late stages are more like the protagonist of a foil. Although this choice makes the book look a bit unbalanced, the author's artistic achievements will be more prominent. The collection of poems also focuses on the author's short poems during the Anti-Japanese War, and the position of short poems in the author's life can not be ignored.
In the reading guide, I learned that in the late 1940s, due to various complicated reasons, Ai Qing's poetry entered a long stagnation period. Although many works were created during this period, most of them were of low value. After entering the new era, Ai Qing came back and wrote many influential poems. Compared with the works he created in the climax, these poems in his later years are more depressed, restrained and more simple and natural, but their artistic appeal is not as strong as before.
After reading this collection of poems, I found that Ai Qing's poems are good at combining the images of the earth, the vast soil to the north of the sun, and the painful faces of the people with the artist's vision, color sense and three-dimensional artistic technique. Ai Qing is different from most early modernist poets and is also beneficial to some local poets. Ai Qing's creative theme is closely related to the feelings of the nation and the people, and has an epic vision and vision. He is also good at capturing major historical events and feelings of the times, so as to summarize China's overall feelings, thoughts and feelings in a special period and convey the strongest inner feelings of the Chinese nation.
Ai Qing is a man who has been struggling on the road of literature, but he has regained his brilliance. We should also learn from his momentum in our study.
Reading Notes on Ai Qing's Poems II
This summer vacation, I first met Comrade Ai Qing. Ai Qing's poems are full of language tension and emotion. "Why do I often have tears in my eyes? Because I love this land deeply. "
Reading "North", I once again realized his fiery childlike innocence. "The desert wind blowing from the Great Wall swept away the green of life and the glory of time in the north, and a yellow grayish yellow was covered with a layer of sand fog that could not be uncovered." It makes me feel like I am in the vast northern land, and the thick loess gives people a strong sense of heaviness. Standing on the boundless desert. It's like a raging north wind blowing from far beyond the Great Wall, mercilessly and ruthlessly insulting innocent lives in the north. The cold wind is not biting cold, but cold to the soul. In Ai Qing's poems, mountains, rivers, villages and crumbling city walls all groaned and lamented the war in the north at that time.
That heartfelt sadness and longing for light. Ai Qing's pen tip is like a bayonet, stripping off his bleak coat, showing me the unfortunate disaster of the northern people, the dying northern people trampled by the enemy fighters, and his strong patriotic feelings.
At the end, "I love this sad land, this ancient land, which has nurtured the hardest and oldest race in the world I love." This is Ai Qing's modus operandi. At the end, he spoke his mind straight, which made the poem come to an end at the peak, gave him a feeling of doing his best and dying, and made the reverberation linger for three days. It also allows readers to experience the north in the north, and there will be hope in the unknown distance.
As a modern writer and poet in China, Ai Qing was born before New China. In the war-torn era, he spent a passionate youth, which made him feel more angry, disappointed and sad about the riddled country than ordinary people. His poem "China, I wrote a weak poem in the dark night, can you give him some warmth?" It reflects this kind of psychology, and it is this kind of heart that has opened up a new era for poetry.
To the Sun shows the inspiring spirit and heroism of the Chinese nation with great momentum. It also runs through Ai Qing's new expectation for China.

Why do I always have tears in my eyes? Because I love this land deeply ...-Ai Qing
After reading Ai Qing's Selected Poems, my heart was filled with a little cold gray. The vicissitudes and heavy melancholy contained in those poems still linger in my memory for a long time.
Ai Qing's poems always remind me of the feeling of "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later". With compassion, he loves everyone who suffers from inequality in the world. His sadness and pain are never out of self-interest. "Although a country is divided, mountains and rivers still exist, and trees and grass turn green again in spring. Petals fall like tears, and lonely birds sing their sadness. " No one wants to see that the land where ancient people lived for thousands of years is going to perish under the enemy's iron horse. The mountains and rivers are broken and the lives are ruined. It is obviously cowardly to cope with the hardships of current affairs and escape from reality, so Ai Qing has no choice to escape. In that particular era, at present, "self" is insignificant, but it needs to have "self" feelings. Therefore, Ai Qing bravely shouldered his responsibility. In plain words, there is a feeling of compassion: "I love this sad land, an ancient land-this land has nurtured the hardest and oldest race in the world that I love." The poem conveys the eager desire for the light, eulogizing: "All the good things are integrated with the light", "I hope for the dawn in the dark and sing the sun in the joy of victory". For thousands of years, since Qu Yuan wrote "I want to take a long breath to hide my tears and lament the hardships of the people's lives", the selfless love for the people and the feeling of "taking the world as my duty" can be said to be the eternal theme of responsible intellectuals' creation and an important part of realistic art. In Ai Qing's poems, there is no sharp fighting will like "The Yellow River is roaring", because this feeling is sometimes a bit blind and naive. What Ai Qing's poems convey is as profound as "the sadness of the north"
The sense of powerlessness is closer to the real life of the working people. It reads like cotton stuck in the chest, which sometimes makes people feel a little sour.
In Ai Qing's poems, you can often see "Dawn", "Sun" and "Torch". It is not difficult to see that they have very obvious symbolic significance. Ai Qing's hatred of the dark old society and his eager yearning for the light are all contained in these images; And these simple images make it easier for him to dedicate his love and poems to all the people, so as to be closely linked with the people. Ai Qing abandoned all useless pretenses, got rid of the shackles of complicated rhymes and diction in classical poetry, and his feelings were deeper and reached the readers' hearts.
Read Ai Qing's Selected Poems, and you will realize the broadest mind and greatest feelings a person can have.
Reading Notes of Ai Qing's Poems 4
Ai Qing's poetry collection is a collection of poems published by Ai Qing, a modern poet in China.
Ai Qing's life is also ups and downs. In elementary school, the May 4th Movement broke out, influenced by patriotism, scientific and democratic enlightenment and Marxism, which changed his writing style, and even made him "abandon painting and follow literature" in prison.
His works are divided into two categories, one is before and the other is after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Before the founding of the People's Republic, the works were optimistic, criticizing and satirizing the writing direction of dark forces, such as Transparent Night, enterprising and optimistic, without negativity and thoughts. In Dayan River-My Nanny, I first praised Dayan River and thanked Dayan River for raising me. In the following, I wrote about the death of Dayan River, denouncing the irrationality of the invaders and the shame of the author.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he also praised the light, but his writing themes were richer and his writing techniques and skills were more flexible. And each article has a strong narrative and deeper thinking. For example, the article "Mirror" extends from a small mirror to think more deeply about your own problems.
In a word, Ai Qing's Poems is a book with simple language and necessary ideological depth.
Notes on Ai Qing's Selected Poems 5
I recently read Ai Qing's To the Sun, and it has been half a century since the author wrote this poem. As a devout and young reader of To the Sun, I can still feel the surge of the poet's heart when the sun comes, and I can still deeply understand the sublimity and radicality of the poet when he wrote this long poem. Perhaps this is what Eliot said: "Historical consciousness also contains an understanding, not only understanding the past, but also understanding the existence of the past."
Over the past decades, there have been many sensational poems in China's poetry circles, which often lose their "sense of existence" within a few years. Most of these short-lived poems belong to works lacking artistic sincerity and strong utility. In recent ten years, there have been many such short poems. To the Sun can be a poem that can stand the strict deletion of history precisely because it can make today's readers understand the existence of history and profound life enlightenment.
In this chapter, the author writes from yesterday to a brand-new day. The sun symbolizes a new beginning, a kind of liberation, a kind of release and an expectation. Looking back at the difficult period of the Anti-Japanese War, countries, cities, villages and individuals all lived in deep water and darkness. People in that period yearned for the sun and the freedom and liberation symbolized by the sun. Finally, one day, the rising sun gives off a dazzling but warm light, and people are finally free. They also sincerely pray that this sunshine will never go out, leaving the descendants of the Chinese people with orange sunshine mixed with their deep red blood and sallow skin. So the author says that the sun is beautiful and eternal.
In the sun, the poet has completely surpassed all his painful memories, showing us a perfect picture of nature crawling in the sun with painful souls in the past, and praising the tall image of injured soldiers. The poet said that he was "more beautiful than the bronze statue of Napoleon" because it was the truest gesture in the sun. In the square, people shouted, "Look at us, we are smiling at the sun". The girls are carrying donation bags and singing fresh songs. The sun shines on their proud breasts and bare arms. They, they, bathed in the afternoon sunshine, enjoyed the sunshine and cherished it.
These heartfelt words and songs, without any exaggeration or exaggeration, have become the past, and plain confession can make readers feel the heavy and strong lyrical charm of history from the concise situation of poetry.
The residual pain in your life only means that you have to struggle for a long time to stand up. These physical and psychological feelings that anyone can really feel can actually arouse readers' association and thinking, thus making plain poetry have great tension and gravity. In fact, this joy of waking up with tears, interwoven with the pain of last night and the life of welcoming the dawn, can never be considered as a poet's self-examination of his past life. This should be regarded as the voice of a child who is fighting with the sons and daughters of Qian Qian to save the country's danger and destiny.
People at that time especially cherished the sunshine, not because of the bad weather at that time, but because they fought for it. Now, under the care of sunshine, do we also cherish the sunshine?
I think this is also a patriotic meaning. Cherish what our predecessors left behind and carry forward what we have at the moment, just to make this sunshine more gorgeous, brighter and more dazzling.
Notes on Ai Qing's Selected Poems 6
Ai Qing's Poetry Collection is a collection of poems by Ai Qing, and the poems in it were written after Ai Qing experienced the May 4th Movement.
As can be seen from the style of poetry, Mr. Ai Qing was enthusiastic and enterprising before liberation, opposing darkness and praising light; After the founding of the People's Republic of China, we will continue to praise the people and the light.
Before the May 4th Movement, Ai Qing's poems generally described symbolic things such as the sun, torch and dawn, showing Ai Qing's hatred of darkness and terror in the old society and his yearning and pursuit of dawn and bright hope. After the founding of New China, Ai Qing's poems are still praising people's broader labor content, richer thoughts, deeper emotions, more diverse techniques and more sophisticated art.
From Ai Qing's patriotism, I thought there were many patriots in China at that time. ...
Xu Beihong was born in a poor family. Drawing since childhood, 19 19 Xu Beihong went to Paris for further study. At that time, backward students in China were bullied. Later, Xu Beihong studied hard and won glory for the motherland. 1924 Xu Beihong's art exhibition caused a sensation and shocked the whole art world.
Lu Xun has established the grand ambition of "I recommend Xuanyuan with blood" since he was a child, which proves that his ambition is not high. He consciously dedicated everything he had to the cause of liberation. "Look at a thousand fingers coldly and bow your head as a willing ox" is a famous sentence. I ate grass and squeezed out milk. After Lu Xun's death, the people of the whole country presented him with the banner of "soul of china", which was the people's pertinent evaluation of him.
This is the patriotism of Lu Xun and Xu Beihong, and we can learn from their qualities: the wisdom of teenagers is the wisdom of the country. If the youth is strong, the country will be strong. The hope of the country lies in our teenagers. Therefore, students study hard to make our motherland better, so that a prosperous, democratic and civilized China will always stand among the world powers.
Notes on Ai Qing's Selected Poems 7
Ai Qing's poems.
Dark, desperate, painful, gloomy, heavy, sad, barren, desolate, stale, turbid, lonely and struggling.
Sun, morning glow, dawn, spring, torch, life, red flag, innovation, light, hope and victory.
The two extremes that should be contradictory are unexpectedly harmonious in Ai Qing's works. It seems that this should be the case in China in 1930s and 1940s. No matter whether the process is tortuous, depressed or lonely, the ending must be full of light and hope.
-can only be full of light and hope.
When people talk about Ai Qing's poems, the first choice is those masterpieces that are widely read and leave a deep impression on readers, such as Dayan River-My Nanny, Torch to the Sun, I Love This Land, Snow Falls on the Land of China, and Dawn Notice. However, the first thing that came to my mind was The Burning Wasteland, which reminded me of Ai Qing's own short poems.
1957, Ai Qing was wrongly classified as a rightist, and General Wang Zhen suggested that he go to Beidahuang Farm. Ai Qing and his family went to the farm during the spring ploughing, and the farm was going to burn a large area of land and burn the surplus weeds and shrubs in the land.
"Sparks fly | The pillar of fire goes straight to the sky | The flame laughs and runs | How happy it is to pierce the thorns!"
This burning fire is bright, it is like Ai Qing's fire, but it still burns brightly, burning up all the despair and pain in this world even if you are in the abyss of darkness and history!
Ai Qing is like fire, not flickering candlelight, but blazing forest fire, persistent and blazing, burning a tortuous and dark road!
Ai Qing is like a fire, an inexhaustible fire!
Therefore, even though his poems still have melancholy and tragic feelings in the early stage, they always turn their eyes to the light at the end, bringing motivation and hope to China people living in the abyss.
Ai Qing's poems are unrestrained, delicate and magnificent. Whether it is the exposure and attack of inhuman society or the praise of the sun and light, whether it is the land, the sun, the longing for suffering, the shadow of light or the cold and burning, it is deeply branded with him, which is very groundbreaking and impactful, and has the same vigorous "primitive vitality" as him.
Ai Qing called himself "as a tragic race, a singer who fought for liberation and got rid of the shackles" and "a trumpeter of the times inspired by the fate of national suffering". He speaks for all the silent souls who are "insulted and hurt" and takes national suffering as his own responsibility.
But I think he is more like fire than these.
More like a fire that releases heat and light, burning and in full bloom, enough to make the enemy's soul tremble.
It's more like sacrificing yourself to bring a bright fire to all people living in a turbulent and hot society.
He is the fire. Represents the redemption of light and hope.
Represents the sun, sunrise, dawn, dawn, spring, torch, life, red flag, innovation, light, hope and victory.
He is a fire that never goes out.
Notes on Ai Qing's Selected Poems 8
"Selected Poems of Ai Qing" (revised edition) took two days to turn over a few poems and copy a few. Generally speaking, I feel that his poems do not match people's evaluation of him (or his position in the history of poetry). Most of his poems are not very good, only a few are not bad. It is said that he should not occupy such a high position in the history of poetry because his personal characteristics are not clear enough, and his poetic style is very ordinary and general. He didn't provide much new things for China's new poems, so his contribution was limited.
After reading Mu Dan's poems, I said that his poems are similar to Du Fu's and can be said to be a "history of poetry". Then compared with Ai Qing's poems, Ai Qing's poems should enjoy the term "poetic history". The characteristics of his poems can be said to be that the subject matter is very extensive, but relatively concentrated. To sum up, it can be said that he wrote the joy and pain on the poor and backward land of China at that time. He went from the Kuomintang-controlled area to the rear area, from the countryside to the front line, but unfortunately his records lacked individuality, or his poems were not enough, at least in many poems, so the cognitive value and historical value of these poems were not low, but the value of poems was relatively low. Even his famous long poems, such as To the Sun, Torch and Ode to Light, are not particularly outstanding in my opinion.
Another feature of Ai Qing's poems is that people like to use adverbs of degree, such as "so" and "very", but when describing things, the sound, color and shape are complete, and all aspects are described, as well as when listing things, which leads to the third feature of his poems, extravagance. He likes to use parallel sentences, sometimes even six or seven identical sentences, such as Wild Goose River-my nanny. However, his descriptions and metaphors have a shortcoming, that is, they are not novel, and they often use things that everyone is familiar with, which makes his poems lack personal things. But this may be the reason why his poems are widely circulated, because such poems are popular, not aristocratic, and are more easily accepted and appreciated by the public and recognized by the government.
There is no denying that some of Ai Qing's poems are excellent, such as Snow Falls on the Land of China. He wrote, "Hungry land/facing the dark sky/outstretched begging arms/trembling arms." "That rock", "Its face and body/seem to have been cut by a knife/but it still stands there/smiling, looking at the ocean …" What a touching image!
Ai Qing's poems are concise and fluent, but he doesn't pay much attention to the changes of skills and expressions, which also affects its aesthetic quality.
Notes on Selected Poems of Ai Qing 9
Ai Qing is a great poet, and his poems are always praised by our later generations, because his poems are full of philosophy of life.
There is a line in The Lost Years that makes sense: "The lost years don't even know where they are-some are scattered, some are lost for ten or twenty years, some are lost in the noisy city, and some are lost in the distant wasteland."
Yes, I don't know where I wasted my time in the past few years. I lost time in a daze. I could have studied hard, but I became speechless there. Others have full schedules and feel that there is not enough time, but I am wasting my time there.
Lu Xun has a famous saying: wasting time is chronic suicide. How much time have I wasted? I could have finished it today, but I have to put it off until tomorrow or even the day after tomorrow.
"Have a plenty of crowded stations, have a plenty of empty small oil lamps; Lost things are not like a piece of paper, they can be picked up, more like a bowl of water spilled on the ground to dry, and there is no shadow; Time is a flowing liquid-it cannot be salvaged with a sieve or net; Time can't be solid, even after tens of thousands of years, it can be found in rock formations. Time is also like gas, like smoke from the front of a speeding train! "
Time is invisible and intangible, and it is fleeting. The elapsed time cannot be like a solid. Even after tens of thousands or tens of millions of years, you can still find it underground. Time passes like a stranger. You may have seen it, but you can't remember where. It may be a city or a dream.
Time has passed and I can't come back, so I will cherish time and make every day full. Today's work must be finished today.
Ai Qing's Selected Poems 10 Reading Notes
I have nothing to do these days. When I rummaged through the bookcase, I caught a glimpse of Ai Qing's poems, which were covered with dust. I brushed the dust gently and turned over a few pages. Ai Qing's Chinese blue melancholy deeply attracted me.
Ai Qing's poetry is a perfect combination of the connotation of ancient poetry and the coat of modern poetry. It is often possible to portray the openness of the "big self" and the humbleness of the "small self" to the fullest. In his poems, there is a kind of "blue melancholy" flowing quietly everywhere. I love Ai Qing's poems because of the "blue melancholy" in them. It is the spiritual penance of "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later", which forged the poet's broad feelings of "self"; So pain does not depend on self-interest, so sadness does not depend on self-interest. "If I were a bird, I would sing with a hoarse throat, this land hit by the storm; ..... Why do I often have tears in my eyes, because I love this land deeply ". Where will the poet's feelings go from his own sadness? China's cultural soil gave birth to such an answer-the motherland, the people and the light. As an image, the "land" where people live arises spontaneously from the poet's mind. Qu Yuan's "Vanilla Beauty" and Du Fu's "Although the country is divided, the mountains and rivers last forever, and the vegetation turns green in spring". Petals fall like tears, and lonely birds sing their sadness. "Don't choose spiritual escape because of the hardships of current events, and don't" have no fish to eat "all day long because you don't have enough to eat. Maybe I hit a wall everywhere, maybe I will never succeed, but I will still "stand there smiling and look at the ocean" ... "(Ai Qing's" Reef "). The poet's experience of going out of his heart and worrying about the past and future of a Millennium country. You can't imagine the burden on the poet's shoulders. He wants to get more responsibility-"taking the world as his own responsibility." "This is the source and ideological basis of China's intellectual creation.
I love Ai Qing's poems because they are full of language tension. The first half of Ai Qing's poetry is often straightforward or passionate, but he often expresses his feelings directly at the end of the poem to reach the climax of the whole poem, and then makes a curtain call at the climax. This often produces a feeling of endless words, which makes the lingering sound linger for three days. Beautiful!
I love Ai Qing's poems because of her broad mind. I love Ai Qing's poetry, because it is natural, has the greatest technique, and is the product of profound cultural accumulation and thorough digestion; I love Ai Qing's poems, because I love this land and sunshine like a poet.
