Geng Zhanchun: Chang Yao is the most trusted poet in my heart, because he makes no secret of his vulnerability and pain, his self-deprecating social concept and personal love desire, and he keenly feels that he is bound to die. He doesn't try to solve any contradiction in life in poetry, he allows himself to struggle in pain. If there is a similar martyr in the history of Russian poetry in the 20th century, it is Chang Yao, because his painful radiation area is a whole half-century of history and society. Reading through Chang Yao's Poetry Collection, I found that all his poems are just his own biographies. He bravely and frankly used his biographical experience without losing the depth and strength of poetry. I wrote Chang Yaoshi as an autobiography. Changyao will repeatedly explain, perhaps this is one of the most reliable signs of the classic.
Zhang Xuexin: Chang Yao is one of the most outstanding contemporary poets in China. Even if it is limited to 60 years, Changyao cannot be ignored. His writing runs through contemporary history, but it cannot be explained by historical grammar. Because he kept a cautious distance from mainstream poetry, he chewed the cold and loneliness in the northwest highlands alone. In the new era, although he is a "returner" of history, he did not pour out the pain of his fate, but continued his "penance", forging the grandeur and ugliness of the western regions into strange language images and writing heroic poems. His works, on the one hand, are a kind of confrontation against his own destiny, on the other hand, this confrontation is integrated into a plateau spirit, which is both rhetoric and the spiritual background of Changyao. Therefore, he pursued a kind of inner poetry of life and created a lot of poems in his later period. Because in his mind, nature is the root of poetry. In a word, Chang Yao's poems are particularly special in the contemporary era. His poetry collections include The Book of Destiny and Poems of Changyao. , can be regarded as an important achievement of China's new poetry in the 20th century.
Start a prairie fire: Changyao is a legend in the history of contemporary poetry. With the universal ideal of living on the broad edge, he turned more than 20 years of exile and constant mental suffering into a poem with the style of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
His profound sense of hardship and destiny, local folk elements and earth temperament from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, sympathetic civilian feelings and firm moral responsibility in the fierce spiritual conflict of modern existence, and the soul asceticism of "a gentleman constantly strives for self-improvement" constitute his irreplaceable contribution to China's contemporary poetry in terms of poetry art and spirit. There are many outstanding poets in China, but there is only one brilliant poet.
Chen Chao: Over the past 30 years, Chang Yao's poems are good at his profound experience of the "West". The reason why they strongly shock readers' hearts is not limited to the superficial regional theme, but because "the west", as the excitation point of poetry, constitutes a two-way dialogue and call with the poet's towering inner soul world. The west has become a broad "spiritual image" and an "absolute reality" in a living poem. History and the present, nature and will, reality and surrealism are inseparable.
Changyao's poems are forbearing and indifferent, the situation is open and tense, and the metaphor is sharp and true. He not only presents the appearance of western nature with accurate and sharp texture, but also writes their "souls" with strange and vigorous metaphors. His poems have profound implications, full of real power and enthusiasm, which deeply named people's spiritual history and broke into the unknown field of life experience. The "modernity" he pursues is the modernity of spiritual structure and discourse mode, not the superficial modernity under the guidance of materialism and time myth. His poetry is the balance between the imagination of American literature and the imagination of history, which realizes the synchronous intervention and commitment to survival and language.
Shen Qi: In the struggle and confirmation between individuals and the times, difficulties and ideals, quietness and restlessness, geopolitical temperament and world spirit, Chang Yao angrily denounced the desert with the language form of distributing messy clothes and the spiritual atmosphere of sitting in a dangerous position, and was a disciple of God. Through the lofty requirements for the sacredness, with a posture of "being" and "fighting", in a discourse full of doubts, compassion, bitterness and depression, it rose to an epic realm with unique symbolic significance, showing great compassion, great compassion and great life consciousness-the poet Chang Yao, who crossed two eras, went deep into the vast plain of time with his unique poetic spirit and artistic quality of poetic style.
Huang Lihai: It seems that Chang Yao is an outstanding poet who expresses western culture. In fact, he represents the indomitable life of human beings. His spirit is the most personal and historic. He showed himself as an ascetic monk, trying to return to the awakened humanity in compassion. His poems gloriously inherit and carry forward the cultural tradition. He is magnificent, noble, sad and profound, full of language and ideological challenges.
Tang Xiaodu: The longer time goes by, the more it highlights the weight of Chang Yao, the walker and master of China's contemporary poetry. With his outstanding determination to turn suffering into wealth, his belief in love and his understanding of life and death, he turned his lonely journey into a kind voyage, and supported the high energy of his poems such as The Sun shines on the Earth with humility and dignity. His poems are open to the vastness of the world and the depths of his heart at the same time, to the earth and the sky, and to the ancient and modern times. In the mutual recognition, reference and infiltration of everything and soul, a huge root system and gas field are established to support his writing. He insists on introducing the majestic passion from the inside of life into the riverbed created by form, and is well versed in the method of obtaining the internal tension of the text in the process of opening and closing the breath. While tempering modern spoken English, he insisted on using classical Chinese, and built a lotus bed for his poetry practice with unique toughness in grammar, tone and rhetoric. Based on his excellent language modeling ability, he established a self-sufficient and open system, which is symmetrical with the western regions at high altitude and combines images and styles from various sources. Its richness lies not only in Du Fu's depression, Whitman's long wind, Li He's clouds and Egri's Tis' movement and transparency, but also in the simplicity and innocence of Qinghai folk songs, which can form a symphony.
Wu Sijing: Chang Yao is a poet with a unique charm of life, which was created by suffering. He integrated the rough experience of exile in Qinghai into the history and reality of a nation. In his poems, idealism and heroic feelings, suffering experience and romantic temperament, tragic spirit and religious consciousness are intertwined, forming an artistic world with strong western style. The vast landscape on the plateau, the unique adventure course and the lonely feelings of the victims make Changyao's poems present a heavenly artistic conception, mysterious and desolate colors, and full of an original ecological sense of life. Suffering experience, unique temperament and strong internal vitality have created Changyao. In China's poetry circle, he is unique and difficult to imitate, and he is a "poet among poets".
