What is the significance of Guo Moruo's Goddess in the history of China's new poetry development?

Goddess, published in 1 and 192 1, is the first collection of poems by Guo Moruo and the first new collection of poems in the history of modern literature in China that truly shows modern consciousness and the spirit of the times in ideological content and artistic form. (The earliest published collection of vernacular poems was Hu Shi's Attempt Collection, which was published in 19 18, but it did not completely get rid of the shackles of old poems. Goddess is full of hatred for the dark forces of society, and expresses the poet's heroic spirit of criticizing the old world and creating a new world. The poet not only attacks the old things in the old world, but also mercilessly criticizes his "old self". In "Phoenix Nirvana", he strongly praised Phoenix's complete recovery. In Tiangou, he eulogized the self-denial and self-transcendence of Tiangou. The goddess is also full of creative spirit and renewed consciousness.

2. In his poems such as The Regeneration of Goddess, Good Morning and Ode to Gangsters, he expressed his yearning and pursuit for a new life. "Earth, My Mother" is full of praise for creative labor. The most prominent thing in Goddess is to praise the rebellious self-image and show the self-strength combined with everything in the universe. This is not only a prominent embodiment of the poet's influence by pantheism, but also a clear requirement of personality liberation in the May 4th era. The most representative poem in Goddess is Nirvana of Phoenix, which, in the form of poetic drama, describes the moving story of Phoenix's "burning incense and being reborn in the fire", symbolizing the destruction of the old world and the poet's "self" and the birth of the new world and the poet's new self.

3. Goddess is also the representative of romantic poetry in the1920s. Its strong romantic and lyrical atmosphere is very infectious. Its representation is first of all a volcano-erupting passion and wild spirit, followed by rich strange imagination and colorful colors. In the external form of poetry, it really realized the "great liberation of poetic style", practiced the poet's artistic proposition of "absolute freedom" and created a flexible and changeable new free-style poetic style. More importantly, Goddess has greatly broken through the "gentle and honest" aesthetic paradigm of China's traditional poetry, and created a new aesthetic style with modern significance, that is, the style of taking grandeur as beauty. It is a unique branch of China literature garden.
