The symbolic image of The Edge of the Earth is characterized by its true reflection of the natural landscape and its magnificent scenery.
Content introduction:
On the one hand, this poem shows the magnificent scenery of nature through a true reflection of the natural landscape; On the other hand, the natural image has become a vivid reflection of social reality and the spirit of the times, a symbol of the arrogance of the times during the May 4th Movement, and a symbol of the spirit of the times that lashed out at the old world, old culture and old traditions.
The author wants to use this poem to tell people that scientific civilization and people's awakening will eventually overthrow the old world and create a new world. This poem is magnificent in artistic conception, full of romanticism and strong sense of the times.
Original text:
Stand on the edge of the earth and let go of the horn. Countless white clouds are raging in the air. Ah ah! What a magnificent view of the Arctic Ocean! The infinite Pacific Ocean lifts all its strength to push the earth down. Ah ah! Hong Tao rolled in front of my eyes! Ah ah! Constantly destroying, constantly creating and constantly working hard! Ah ah! Hey! Hey! Power painting, power dance, power music, power poetry, power rhythm!

Appreciation of works:
Standing on the Edge of the Earth and Giving Numbers is one of the representative works of Guo Moruo's early poems. This poem presents the reader with the image of a giant. He stood on the edge of the earth, overlooking the earth from the standpoint of "omnipotence" and sounded the horn that resounded all over the world.
This poem can be regarded as one of Guo Moruo's early "Volcanic Eruption" poems, from which we can best feel the spirit of the times of sturm und drang during the May 4th Movement. According to the author, Whitman's poetic style of breaking all the old rules during that period was in harmony with the spirit of the May 4th Movement, and I was completely disturbed by his bold and unconstrained style.
