The appreciation of poetry is a kind of re-creation in a precise sense.
The main method of re-creation is imaginative activities. Imagination is not only necessary for the poet's creation, but also for the reader's appreciation. It can be considered that the poet creates the image of the poem through imagination, and the reader correctly grasps the poet's artistic conception through imagination and richly reproduces the image created by the poet. For example, in Ai Qing's "I Love This Land", after understanding the historical background of this poem, we begin to understand the poem itself. At this time, what is displayed in front of us is the image of the poem, which is the product of the poet's imagination. Appreciation activities can be considered as re-experiencing and re-experiencing the poet's imaginative activities.
