The image of standing on the edge of the earth and placing numbers?
"Standing on the Edge of the Earth and Broadcasting Signals" is a new poem written by Guo Moruo between September and October 1919. On the one hand, this poem shows the majestic and magnificent scenery of nature through a true description of the natural landscape; on the other hand, the image of nature has become a clear reflection of social reality and the spirit of the times, and is the crazy spirit of the times during the May Fourth Movement. The symbol is the symbol of the spirit of the times that violently attacks the old world, old culture, and old traditions. The author uses this poem to tell people: Scientific civilization and the people's awakening will eventually overthrow the old world and create a new world. This poem has a magnificent artistic conception, full of romanticism, and a strong sense of the times.
What this poem presents to the reader is the image of a giant.
The giant stands on the edge of the earth. He can overlook the earth from "all directions" and blow the horn that resounds throughout the world. The sound of his trumpet hails the raging white clouds and the magnificent clear scene of the Arctic Ocean, hails the Pacific Ocean that is about to overthrow the earth, and hails the rolling waves coming from all directions in space. An overwhelming torrent not only has huge destructive power, but also contains equally huge creativity. It depends on whether people can master it and control it. Look, the rolling waves are constantly working hard to move forward, depicting the "painting of force", performing the "dance of force", playing the "music of force", expressing the "poetry of force", and stirring up the "power of force". The law of strength".
This is a thrilling picture of force and an ode to force. When writing this poem, the author was studying abroad at Kyushu University School of Medicine in Fukuoka, Japan. It was not long after the May 4th Movement broke out in China.
The huge "power wave" generated by the "May 4th" movement crossed the Pacific Ocean,
directly shocked the young and energetic Guo Moruo, who was always sensing the pulse of the times.
His oak-like pen gave him a creative opportunity to write vertically and horizontally. The scene of rolling torrents described in the poem is a symbol of the huge momentum of the May 4th Movement. To put it another way, it is also a concrete symbol of the scale of large-scale industrial production that is trending in the world. The "May 4th" movement is like a rolling tide to China. It is using huge destructive power to break through all semi-feudal and semi-colonial ideological nets, and at the same time using great creativity to build a new scientific and democratic modern civilization .
