Modern poetry is a poem that uses modern expression techniques to express modern people's thoughts and feelings more directly. The development of China's modern poetry can be traced back to the May 4th Movement, but the rapid development of modern poetry appeared in 1980s with the deepening of China's reform, opening up and modernization. Due to the rapid development of modern poetry movement, it is inevitable that the good and the bad are mixed, and the work done in guiding is not enough, which has caused certain difficulties for readers to appreciate modern poetry.
With the development of society and the progress of science and technology, the living background faced by human beings has undergone profound changes, and people's ways of thinking and emotion have also changed. Pastoral lyricism is increasingly being replaced by modern emotional expression. Reflected in poetic techniques, complex metaphors, fractures, deformations, synaesthesia and irony have replaced simple rhetoric and straightforward narration. Therefore, modern poetry is deeper in appreciation and needs to be appreciated at a new cultural level. This requires us to master new knowledge of techniques in learning and reading, because only by mastering the knowledge of techniques can we better grasp and appreciate modern poetry. In the habit of appreciation, we usually like to "solve a problem" and always hope that poetry can give us a clear and single "lesson". The language of modern poetry, due to the use of a variety of modern techniques, is particularly elastic and tense, often punning or referring to more than one word, which can better play the reader's imagination. If you get used to it, you will feel the pleasure and surprise after exploration, rather than the shallow feeling given by the general "cultural fast food".
Appreciating modern poetry conforms to the trend of social development. We know that students' knowledge, thinking mode and emotional mode are very different from our times, and their minds are much more complicated. Modern poetry is a complex art, and complexity and simplicity are dialectical unity. If you don't understand it at all, people won't like it. Therefore, we should appreciate modern poetry and be good at distinguishing it.
In today's society, some people are obsessed with a dead end, and the poems they write are not like poems, or they are too ignorant to read; Or pretend to be profound and without poetic beauty. This so-called "modern poetry" should be distinguished from truly excellent modern poetry. For the modern poetry books that are popular in the society now, we should also be able to distinguish the good from the bad through our own appreciation and find the excellent modern poetry that we really like. Some works of modern poetry collections are well selected, such as Tang Xiaodu and Wang Jiaxin's Experimental Poetry Collection.
In the process of appreciation and reading, you can also choose good modern poetry works, copy or cut them, and over time, you can have a thick volume. This is a very meaningful job.
Many domestic journals publish modern poems. Poetry magazine, ci magazine, poetry newspaper monthly magazine, etc. He mainly publishes modern poetry, and has published many excellent modern poetry works over the years. Interested students may wish to have a look.
Good modern poetry, in addition to those features mentioned above, must also have modern consciousness, which can touch the hearts of modern people; At the same time, it should be a beautiful work of art with aesthetic value that can be read.
I believe that with the continuous progress of society, modern poetry will have more and more readers.
