Guo Moruo
The street lights in the distance are very clear.
There seem to be countless stars shining.
Stars in the sky. Now,
It seems that countless street lamps are on.
I think that empty sky,
There must be a beautiful market.
Some items on display in the market,
It must be a rare thing in the world.
You see, the shallow Tianhe,
Certainly not very broad.
Cowherd and Weaver Girl across the river,
I'm sure I can ride a cow.
I think now,
You must walk in Tianjie.
If you don't believe me, please look at that meteor.
Even if they walk with lanterns.
Writing background
192 1~ 1922, China was in the chaotic period of the northern warlords. Facing the dark reality of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, the author felt great anger. From the street lamps on the ground to the stars in the sky, some of them are related to street lamps, so he thought of and described the streets in the sky, which made people spread their imagination wings and were dissatisfied with the reality on the ground, thus imagining cows. The cowherd and the weaver girl here have been liberated and lived a good life. Stars and street lamps are metaphors of each other this time, creating a poetic artistic conception full of fantasy and expressing the author's yearning for a better life.

At Imperial University, poets began to engage in literary creation. 1920, the poet published a series of important works in "Current Affairs, Learning Lights", 192 1, and published a collection of poems "Goddess". This collection of poems is a milestone in the history of China's modern poetry, which initiated the romantic style of China's new poetry. In the same year, poets, Yu Dafu and others organized the creation society and founded the quarterly magazine Creation. 1923, poet, graduated from Imperial University. 1926, the poet became the president of Guangdong University.

Appreciation of masterpieces
Guo Moruo's poems have always been famous for their strong emotional catharsis, and his "Phoenix Nirvana" is passionate. His "Tiangou" has the momentum of destroying everything; His "Good Morning" and "There is Coal in the Furnace" once made our hearts beat. But this poem is quiet and peaceful, with beautiful artistic conception, fresh and simple. When the poet wrote this poem, he was studying in Japan. Like many overseas students in China at that time, he missed his motherland and was confused about his ideal future. Poets have to think about this with the help of nature and often wander by the sea. One night, the poet walked by the sea, looking up at the beautiful sky and twinkling stars, and his mood became cheerful. The poet seems to have found his ideal, so he wrote it down in his poem-as if it were a scene in heaven. The poet compared the stars to street lamps. Stars are scattered in the sky, and the distant world arouses people's infinite reverie. Street lamps are a common sight, close to us and can be seen almost everywhere. The poet compared the street lamps in the distance to the stars in the sky, and also compared the stars in the sky to the street lamps on the ground. Is it the poet's illusion, or does the poet want to lead us into the "ethereal realm"? In the poet's mind, heaven and earth are one. There is a market in the ethereal sky, a prosperous and beautiful market. There are many items on display, all of which are treasures of the world. The poet didn't write these anecdotes specifically, which left us a lot of room for imagination. We can regard them as what we need and bring us peace and comfort of mind. It is not only a market, but also a life scene. Across the shallow Tianhe River, what is the life of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl who are unswerving in love? Still guarding the Milky Way, can we only face each other from a distance? "You must ride a cow," said the poet. On that beautiful night, they must have wandered in the colorful market. Meteors are lanterns they are holding. A few simple words have subverted the myth that has been circulated for thousands of years and resolved the tragedy of sighing for thousands of years and people's yearning and sorrow. The style of this poem is desolate, expressing the poet's pure ideal with natural and fresh language, neat short sentences and harmonious and beautiful rhythm. The artistic conception is general and the rhythm is slow, such as a trickle and ripples. But it is this simple artistic conception that brings us rich imagination and makes our hearts wander in the distant sky with poetry and enjoy their beautiful dreams.
Shu Ting's motherland, my dear motherland.
I am your shabby old waterwheel by the river.
Old songs that have been spun for hundreds of years.
I am a miner's lamp with your forehead blackened.
When you grope in the tunnel of history.
I am a withered ear of rice; This is a roadbed that is in disrepair.
This is a barge on the beach.
Draw the rope deep
Pull it into your shoulder
-the motherland!
I am very poor.
I am sad
I am your ancestor.
Painful hope.
It's a flying sleeve.
Flowers that never fall to the ground for thousands of years
-Motherland
I am your brand-new ideal.
Just broke free from the mythical spider web.
I am the germ of your ancient lotus under the snow.
I am your tearful smile.
I am the newly painted white starting line.
This is crimson dawn.
Spraying
-Motherland
I am one billionth of you.
Is the sum of your 9.6 million square meters.
With your scarred breasts,
raise
Lost me, considerate me, boiling me.
And then from my flesh and blood
get
Your richness, your glory, your freedom.
-Motherland
My dear motherland!
"Motherland, My Dear Motherland" is one of Shu Ting's representative works, and it is an affectionate patriotic song. Compared with similar poems in the past, it has distinct characteristics and personality of the times-both the confused pain and happy hope of contemporary youth, and the true feelings of daughter's dissatisfaction and dedication to the motherland, blending with a deep sense of history and a strong sense of the times. The whole poem has novel ideas and sincere feelings, and sings the motherland from a unique angle. In order to express this deep feeling, the poet adopted a rhythm from low to high. Like crying and complaining, like sorrow and complaining, passionate and indomitable. The whole poem uses the method of alternate blending of subject and object, expressing the poet's blending consciousness and dedication to the motherland.
Shu Ting is one of the representative poets of misty poetry. Her "Motherland, My Dear Motherland" was written in the first spring when China entered the new period of reform and opening up. To read this poem aloud, we must first understand the image connotation of "I" in the poem and clarify the relationship between "I" and the motherland. Secondly, it is necessary to correctly understand the meanings of many images in poems, and combine with reading other poems of Shu Ting after class to understand the characteristics of euphemistic twists and turns in Shu Ting's poems.
There are four image group in this poem. Through their progressive combination, it not only expresses the development process of the motherland from suffering to rebirth, but also expresses sympathy for the younger generation with a special emotional process from confusion to deep thinking to boiling. Poetry first suppresses and then promotes, just like a multi-part symphony, showing a language rhythm from soothing to urgent, from low to high. The dignified emotion expressed by the novel image is the key point to appreciate the whole poem.
In the first section, the poet traces the centuries-old history of poverty and backwardness of the motherland with deep sadness and euphemistic twists and turns. The poet summed up the long-term poverty and backwardness of the motherland with dense images such as "shabby old waterwheel" and "black miner's lamp"
The second part describes the people's pain and hope. The motherland and people have not lost hope because of "poverty", but hope has been too slim for a long time, like the flowers in the sleeves of "flying", which are beautiful and attractive and have not yet fallen to the ground.
The third section depicts the image of the motherland at a turning point in history with a set of images. The new motherland has stood on the "snow-white starting line".
The fourth section once again emphasizes the inseparable relationship between "I" and the motherland. The "lost" and "contemplative" poet was full of blood, and she poured out her desire to devote herself to the motherland in heartfelt language.
There is not a word in the whole poem, which is described by images and runs through with emotions. The selected image is concise, vivid, unique and appropriate, and every word is closely related to the described scene. Lyricism is not an unobstructed view, but pays great attention to its ups and downs, from sadness, low to joy, high, from excitement to deep, tangled with a variety of complex and dignified feelings such as sadness, anxiety, fierceness, disappointment and hope, sigh and pursuit, which embodies the poet's unique euphemistic, deep, soft and meaningful lyric personality.

Shu Ting rose in the China poetry circle in the late 1970s. She and her contemporaries, such as Beidao, Gu Cheng and Liang, set off a wave of "misty poetry" in China's poetry circles with a poetic style different from that of their predecessors. Their poems have changed the traditional characteristics of new poetry, which are like words and almost like prose, with profound but not obvious meanings. They have changed the single image of poetry into the superposition of multi-level images, leaving readers with a broad space for imagination and elaboration, making many poems lose their traditional bright colors and cast a hazy atmosphere. They used vague poems to express a generation's thinking about the fate of the country and their careful thinking and criticism of all aspects of social life.
Shu Ting is a representative figure of misty poetry school. & gt is one of the representative works of misty poetry tide.
