If we say new poetry, Guo Moruo's poems are worthy of being new. His works are not only farthest from the old poems in art, but most importantly, his spirit is completely the spirit of the times-the spirit of the late 20th century. Some people say that literary and artistic works are the product of the times. The goddess is really a dutiful son of the times.
-Wen Yiduo
Two great rivers, Ink (Dadu River) and Ruoshui (Qingyi River), converge in his name. The beautiful water of Lingshan, a land of abundance, and the profound classical culture of China nourished and cultivated Guo Moruo, a cultural giant in the 20th century and a wizard in the history of China. China, an outstanding modern writer, poet, dramatist, historian, ancient philologist and famous social activist, has profound attainments in history, archaeology, ancient philology, antiquities, literature, art and so on. This determines that he will become an unavoidable and indelible figure in the history of China literature in the 20th century. Comrade Deng Xiaoping once said that Guo Moruo was "a famous scholar with profound knowledge and outstanding talent" in the modern cultural history of China. In the decades after Guo Moruo's death, many scholars complained about his performance in his later years. However, defects can't cover up the faults of others. Even though this cultural master lost his integrity and made many mistakes in his later years, his pioneering achievements in literature, academia and many other aspects always shine indelibly. To this day, countless people are still reading him, studying him, reciting his poems and performing his plays. In the history of China in the 20th century, he was an indispensable one.
19 12 years, Guo Moruo published his first collection of poems, Goddess. The poet praised the people's revolution, socialism and * * * productism, and expressed the uncompromising anti-imperialist and anti-feudal revolutionary spirit. He blew the majestic and stirring battle horn in the May 4th Movement and sang the strongest voice of the times. With strong revolutionary spirit, distinctive times color and romantic artistic style, The Collection of Poetry created a new poetic style, which became the foundation work of the May 4th new poetry, opened up a brand-new era and a vast world for the development of new poetry, and had a far-reaching impact on the development of modern poetry in China. Due to the gap of the times and the change of the aesthetic trend of poetry, we can't go back to the historical scene to relive the thrilling and devastating hurricane era, and we can't exactly understand the excitement of the poet when writing poetry inspired by the spirit of the great era. Approaching the goddess is definitely the best way for us to appreciate Guo Moruo, a master of culture.
