Metric poetry is a form of poetry with specific prosody, meter and syntactic structure requirements. It has a long history in the traditional culture of China. After thousands of years of development and evolution, many different metrical genres have been formed, such as five-character quatrains, seven-character quatrains and five-character metrical poems.
The syntactic structure of metrical poetry has an important influence on the expression of poetry, which can make poetry beautiful and convey profound thoughts and emotions. The following are some key points about the syntactic structure in metrical poetry writing:
1. Number of words and rhythm: Metric poetry requires equal number of words in each sentence, and the determination of the number of words will directly affect the formation of rhyme and sentence rhythm. In five-character quatrains, each sentence is usually five words; In seven-character quatrains, each sentence is usually seven words. In addition, metrical poetry also requires that the rhythm of each sentence is harmonious and smooth, which requires considering the factors such as pronunciation, tone and stress in the sentence.
2. Refinement and conciseness of language: Metric poetry requires as few words as possible to express rich artistic conception, so it requires refinement and conciseness of language. Every word needs to accurately express the author's intention, and at the same time meet the requirements of rhythm and prosody.
3. Rhyme and smoothness: Sentences in metrical poems generally have rhyming requirements. In five-character quatrains, the rhyme is usually "AABB", that is, the second word and the fourth word in every two sentences rhyme; In seven-character quatrains, the rhyme is usually "ABAB", that is, the first word and the third word in every four sentences rhyme.
In addition, metrical poetry also requires the duality of flat and parallel, that is, the collocation of flat and parallel should be coordinated and balanced to form a harmonious rhythm.
4. Sentence changes and rhetorical devices: Sentence changes in metrical poems can increase the expressive force and artistic sense of poetry. By using different rhetorical devices, such as metaphor and exaggeration, we can enrich the imagery and emotional expression of poetry.
5. The shaping of artistic conception: The expression purpose of metrical poems is usually to shape a specific artistic conception. In the application of syntactic structure, we should pay attention to the rhythm and tone changes needed to express artistic conception, so as to make poetry more vivid and leave a deep impression on readers.
In a word, the syntactic structure of metrical poetry is an extremely important part of metrical poetry writing. Through the rational use of words, rhythm, rhyme, level tone, sentence changes and rhetorical devices, poetry can be expressed more accurately and beautifully, and at the same time, the author's feelings and thoughts can be better conveyed.
