Why are there no classical poets in modern times?

China has been a great poetry country since ancient times. Now all the children who have attended kindergarten have not read Luo's Goose and Li Bai's A glimmer of light at the foot of the bed. People talk about poetry, that is, Tang poetry and Song poetry. But it rarely mentions modern poetry. It seems that the North Island and the ancient city are farther away from us than Li Bai and Du Fu. On the university campus, I also found that there are even fewer people who learn to write modern poetry than those who learn classical poetry. Students often ask why modern poetry is more difficult to understand and master than ancient poetry.

There is no doubt that the century-long mileage of new poetry is too short and immature compared with the thousand-year history of ancient poetry. There are no great poets like Li Bai and Du Fu among the new poets, and there are no classical poems like Shi and Xin Qiji.

The accumulation of classical poetry is too deep and its influence is too great, which is beyond the reach of new poetry poets. In addition, after long-term development and evolution, classical poetry has formed a fixed, mature and easy-to-remember art form. This is also unparalleled in modern poetry.

In the past, there was a famous man from China. Some have numbers. These names have different emotional colors and different scope of application. For example, the famous Confucius, whose surname is Kong Qiuming, was named Zhong Ni. Qiu is a famous name, also known as scientific name or official name, which is used when going to school or doing business outside. Zhong Ni, another nickname according to the scientific name, is usually used at home or in private. The former is more formal and serious, while the latter is more intimate and casual. Confucius also had a nickname-Kong Laoer. How disrespectful people are. Knowing people's names and their meanings makes it easier to speak or write articles and makes fewer mistakes.
