From the literary trend of thought, Du Fu's poems are devoted to the fusion and melting of modernism and realism.
Auden, who turned left in 1930s, paid attention to reality, which was not entirely modernism. The basic point of Du Fu's modernist poetry is the modernism of this "pink poetry group", which has something in common with realism in spirit. Through the combination with realism, Du Fu not only showed universal concern for real life, but also kept pace with the pulse of the times and paid attention to major social events and problems. The ideological height and depth reached are no less than realistic anti-Japanese war poems. In a sense, because the poet himself participated in the war, he wrote more deeply. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the poet's heart beat with the people of the whole country.
The poet strongly exposed and lashed at the darkness in the Kuomintang-controlled areas. Under that funny appearance, he flashed a dagger as sharp as a dagger. The actual anatomy is really like a doctor's clinic, and he points out the wound mercilessly. Du Fu's poems have a strong spirit of realism. Although they are not as close to life as Shanghai poets, they are not as inclined to modernism as Mu Dan and Zheng Min.
Obviously, it is too superficial to combine Auden-style modernism with realism only in the content of poetry. The profundity of Du Fu's poetry lies in its modernist expression of society, nature and self, in other words, it integrates some forms of modernism with the connotation of society, nature and self marked by modernism. The content of these poems smacks of modernism. In the relationship between life and death, the poet's life consciousness is outstanding, which is fundamentally different from western modernism. The poet has a unique view on the relationship between beauty and ugliness. Narcissus uses the story of Greek myth Narcissus to write the poet's experience and views on beauty and ugliness. Du Xie Yun enthusiastically praised nature. In his works, nature always presents two states, one is beauty and harmony.
Du's love for nature makes him different from western modernism, but he keeps an aesthetic distance from nature and takes the forest as a symbol, which makes him retain his modernist demeanor.
Judging from the poetic elements, Du is good at combining reason with emotion.
This is the same feature of the Nine Leaves Poetry School. Nine-leaf poets have a tendency to feel Zhi Dai's feelings, and the poems of main feelings begin to develop into poems of main wisdom. Emotion is an important element of poetry, ruthless and boring. Therefore, nine-leaf poets must avoid weightlessness and seek a balance between emotion and reason. What they * * * did was to combine experience with emotional experience and emotional experience, taking experience as the focus of poetry, thus completing Rilke's transformation from gas poetry to real poetry. The strengthening of intellectual elements subverts the autocracy of traditional perceptual elements. However, due to the different weights of intellectual elements, the degree of integration of intellectual and perceptual elements is different, and the ways of integration are also different, so kuya poets show their own differences in addition to the same characteristics of integration of intellectual and perceptual elements.
Modernist art is collage art. Du sometimes collages and "welds" ideas and images into a poem. At this time, rationality often shows itself directly instead of image, and rationality dominates sensibility, which is better than sensibility. Generally speaking, this kind of poetry does not shape the overall image, and its individual concrete image appears handy and lingering.
Du Fu's poems are very rational, but some of them are good at sensibility. Rationality does not appear directly in poetry, but is hidden behind perceptual images.
Generally speaking, Du is a calm modernist. He can imagine "I" as a romantic. "The night is very big, but I am bigger. The moon and stars illuminate me obediently. " "Everything is for me and the night is for me." It is precisely because the poet observes everything and meditates on reason that his poems have profound warning significance.
In order to express such a unity of rationality and sensibility, Du Fu also experimented and innovated the code system of poetry. The first is the clever combination of figurative words and abstract words. Secondly, it uses specious sentences and condenses the poet's profound thinking.
From the aesthetic category, Du Fu skillfully combined the opposing aesthetic forms.
If the integration of reason and sensibility makes Adu a wise man in poetry, then the integration of opposing aesthetic forms makes him an urchin in poetry. "Du's urchin world is full of new discoveries, and his poems are lively and beautiful." First of all, it is a fusion of sublime and funny. He is good at combining serious, important and tragic content with humor, humor and comedy.
Du also teased, poking fun at serious things. God, in the eyes of westerners and orientals, is an inviolable object, but Du Fu's On God satirizes God as a busy man who has to work 24 hours a day. Is a linguist, familiar with the prayers of various dialects on the ground; He is the biggest careerist, who wants to extend the political power in heaven to the underground and send missionaries to sneak into all parts of the world; He is a dictator who has little interest in democracy and wants to destroy all his political enemies. Exposed the illusory nature that God is man-made.
Comedy widely exists in Du Fu's poems. There are many beautiful works in Du Fu's poems, but humor is often injected into beauty, which makes it have special comedy beauty.
Judging from the poetic style, Du Fu is good at blending classical poetic style, modern poetic style, China poetic style and western poetic style.
Du Fu's poems pay attention to the integration of modernism and realism, rationality and sensibility, various opposing aesthetic forms, and the integration of Chinese and foreign ancient and modern poetic styles, forming a unique style of humor, relaxation, calmness and meditation. In To One of My Compatriots, Du created an ordinary man with a "heavy burden", bent, tired and silent, with no dignity on the surface, but fulfilled his human meaning. His simplicity, forbearance and modesty remind me of Du Fu's personality and poetic style. "Peaches and plums are speechless, and the next step is to lead a new path." This serious star has his own unique position in the history of China's new poetry!
