What kinds of poems are there (3 kinds)

1, ancient poems: ancient poems: including ancient poems (poems before Tang Dynasty), songs of Chu and Yuefu poems. Poetry in ancient poetry genres such as "Song", "Song Line", "Quotations", "Qu" and "Yin" also belong to ancient poetry. Classical poetry does not talk about antithesis and rhymes freely.

2. Modern poetry: Compared with classical poetry, modern poetry is also called modern poetry, which is a kind of metrical poetry formed in the Tang Dynasty. There are two kinds, and there are strict rules on the number of words, sentences, level tones and rhymes.

3. Modern poetry: Modern poetry, also known as "vernacular poetry", can be traced back to the end of the Qing Dynasty as early as possible and is a kind of poetry. Compared with classical poetry, although it is written for feeling things, it is generally informal in format and rhythm.

Extended information 1. Classical poetry

1, Chuci: It is a form of poetry created by Qu Yuan during the Warring States Period, which is characterized by the use of dialects and phonology of Chuci and has a strong color of Chuci. There are seventeen volumes of Chu Ci edited by Liu Xiang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, mainly the works of Qu Yuan, and Qu Yuan's works take Li Sao as his masterpiece, so later generations also call it "Chu Ci Style" and "Sao Style".

2. Yuefu: It was originally the official name in charge of music in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and later became a poetic name. Music songs collected and created by Yuefu officials in the Han, Wei, Southern and Northern Dynasties are called Yuefu for short. Poems written by poets in Wei, Jin, Tang and beyond are quasi-Yuefu, which makes them quasi-Yuefu and quasi-Yuefu, although they are not enjoyable. Such as Chile Song, Mulan Poetry and Short Song (Cao Cao). Generally speaking, the titles of Yuefu poems are songs, lines, quotations, songs, songs and so on.

3. Gexing style: it is a variant of Yuefu poetry. After the Han and Wei Dynasties, there were quite a few Yuefu poems with the theme of "Song" and "Xing". Although the names are different, there is no strict difference between them. They all mean "Song". Their syllables and meter are generally free, and the form is the archaic form of five words, seven words and miscellaneous words, which is full of changes. Later, they had the style of "Gexing".

Second, modern poetry.

1, "quatrains", each sentence has four sentences, five words are abbreviated into five quatrains, and seven words are abbreviated into seven quatrains.

2. "Rhyme" has eight sentences each. Five characters are abbreviated as five laws, seven characters are abbreviated as seven laws, and more than eight sentences are called excluded laws (or long laws).

3. Words: also known as poems, long and short sentences, songs, songs and Yuefu. Its characteristics: the tone has a fixed frame, the sentence has a fixed number and the word has a fixed tone. The number of words can be divided into long tune (above 9 1 word), middle tune (59-90 words) and minor tune (below 58 words). Words can be divided into monosyllabic and disyllabic, and disyllabic is divided into two paragraphs, in which the level and number of words are equal or roughly equal, and monosyllabic is only one paragraph.

4. Qu: Also known as Yuefu. Yuanqu includes Sanqu and Zaju. Sanqu rose in the Jin Dynasty and flourished in the Yuan Dynasty, and its style was similar to that of Ci. Features: the number of words can be added with interlining, and more oral English is used. Sanqu includes poems and songs. The number of songs is a coherent set of songs, ranging from two to dozens. Each group number takes the song of the first song as the name of the whole set of songs, and the whole set of songs must be in the same palace tune.

Third, modern poetry.

1, Narrative Poetry: There are relatively complete story lines and characters in the poem, which are usually expressed by the poet's passionate singing. Epic, story poem and poetic novel all belong to this category.

2. Lyrics: mainly reflect the social life by directly expressing the poet's thoughts and feelings, and do not require complete stories and characters. Such as love songs, carols, elegies, elegies, pastoral songs, satirical poems, etc. There are many such works, so I won't list them one by one.

3. Metric poetry: it is a poem written according to certain formats and rules. It has strict rules on the number of lines, the number of words (or syllables), the tone and rhyme, the antithesis of words and the arrangement of sentence patterns. Such as the metrical poems, quatrains and songs in China's ancient poems and the European sonnets.

4. Free verse: it is a newly developed poetic style in modern Europe and America. It is not limited by metrical rules, has no fixed format, pays attention to natural and internal rhythm, and uses rhymes roughly similar or without rhymes. The number of words, lines, sentence patterns and tones are relatively free, and the language is relatively popular. Whitman, an American poet (1819-1892), is the founder of European and American free verse, and Leaves of Grass is his main collection of poems. This poetic style has also become popular in China since the May 4th Movement.

5. Prose poetry is a literary genre with both prose and poetry characteristics. There are poetic artistic conception and passion in the works, which are often full of philosophy, paying attention to the natural rhythm and the beauty of music. The length is short, like prose, and it does not rhyme, such as Lu Xun's Weeds.
