Modern Poetry: Charlotte and Witt

The original poem (translated by Guo Moruo):

Green and Witt

Who doesn't like young people?

Who is the young woman who is not good at love?

This is the purest and purest of our human nature;

Ah, how did you fly here?

Lovely reader, you cry him, you love him,

Please save his reputation before it is destroyed;

You see, his soul came out of the hole and whispered to you:

Please be a man and don't follow in my footsteps.

Appreciate:

Goethe's Charlotte and Werther may still be recited by many people, especially "Who doesn't like young men?" /Young woman who is not good at love? " . The reason is very simple, that is, the poet has spoken out the true feelings that already exist in everyone's heart, but he was unwilling or unable to say it before. This is the straightforward humanity of love and the natural release of humanity. Anyone who has no youthful vitality has really become a poor man of love. Therefore, in the face of love, there is no need to hide.

In China, however, due to the shackles of feudal thoughts for thousands of years, human nature has been suppressed and bound. Seeing sex as a scourge and a dirty thing, sex is only the possession of power. Therefore, the most beautiful and pure love of mankind is tightly wrapped. And deep down, everyone wants to light the flame of love freely.

The poet expresses that sex is the instinctive need of human nature, and love is sublimated, pure and free, but he does not preach that she can indulge. We have no reason not to spare and protect the purest love in human nature, so "lovely reader, you cry for him, you love him,/please save his reputation before it is destroyed" and learn to be an upright person to pursue and obtain this beautiful and pure love. Isn't this what our eastern culture advocates? Isn't this also the idea of human civilization?
