The soul of China's poetry is magnificent. It has the spirit of "how the water of the Yellow River moves out of the sky and into the ocean, never to return" and the majestic posture of "I climb high and look far". The beauty of "Looking at the world, river of no return will never return", the wonder of "Five Old Peaks in the southeast of Lushan Mountain, Jin Furong cut out from the blue sky", the wonder of "Looking at Dongting Lake in the distance, a green snail is in a silver plate", and the wonder of "My road twists and turns, through a sheltered depression, through branches and flowers, to a Buddhist retreat".
Listen, listen to the beautiful music of "The phoenix in Kunshan is broken, the lotus is crying, and the vanilla is laughing", listen to the pipa of "We can feel her feelings before she plays", and listen to the long flute of "Blowing the flute to frighten the egret, hanging the pole and jumping the purple scale" ...
Do you feel it? The emperor's soul in poetry: "The mountains are vigorously pulled up, and the heavens and the earth are full of gas", "The wind is flying, and Jia Wei returns to his hometown in the sea", "The old horse rides a tiger and aims at a thousand miles", "The king of Qin rides a tiger and swims extremely, and the sword is shining in the sky."
Do you feel it? The heroic bearing in the soul of the poem is: "The wind blows in Shui Han, and the strong man will never return", "Giving up his life for the country is a disaster, and suddenly he feels dead", "Bowing and hanging a lotus, leaning on the sky and a sword", "Giving up his life is the main thing, and life and death are the national mourning", "Who knows that he doesn't suffer hardships in the frontier court, but he can still smell the fragrance of chivalrous men when he dies".
You listen to the voice of history, and the grievances of frustrated poets are the soul of poetry. Qu Yuan was angry: "Although I didn't change my mind, how can I be punished?" "Su Shi is independent, horizontal and not flowing." "coexist with heaven and earth, and Guang Qi coexist with the sun and the moon." Wang Bo said sadly, "When you are old and strong, you would rather move your heart." If you are poor, you will change your mind, and you will never lose your ambition. "
Li said to him, "We both hold high the idea of going far away. You should go to heaven to embrace the bright moon!" " "One day, I will ride the long wind, break through the huge waves, raise my muddy sails and build a bridge on the deep sea!" Oh, how can I bow and scrape to those in high places and those in high places? Du Fu said with deep affection: "Andrew's strong men guard the Tianhe River, so there is no need to wash their nails!" Li said to him, "The mind of a teenager is like a cloud. Who wants to sit in the cold and sing? " "Man's heart is not poor, and his glory cannot be compared with the glory of God." Chen Ziang is very helpless: "I think of heaven and earth, there is no limit, there is no end, I am alone, and my tears fall." Li Qi lamented: "You tied up thousands of books in your arms, you held your head high and never bowed to the dust."
Du Fu was far-sighted and made a high summary of all this: "People with wisdom and hope should not complain, the bigger the wood, the harder it is to use". Appreciating each other, Li Shangyin cried to Jia Yi: "Poverty is unprecedented in the middle of the night, and Mo Wen people ask ghosts and gods." And he himself was praised by Cui Jue: "I failed Lingyun's great talent in vain, and I have never let it go in my life." The soul of China's poetry is the most popular, and a great poet can't live without the people. Their poetic soul is rooted in the hearts of the people, and their poetic soul is rooted in the soil of the times and history.
From Qu Yuan to Li Bai's romantic school, from Bao Zhao to Du Fu and Bai Juyi's realistic school, and from Zhuo Wenjun and Cai Wenji to Xue Tao and Du Qiuniang, female poets are indeed dazzling stars in the starry poetic world. People poets write about people, and people love people poets. Ai Qing grew up sucking the milk of "Dayanhe", a farmer's nanny, and was infected with "farmer's melancholy" from an early age. His artistic life is deeply rooted in the motherland. He deeply felt, understood and revealed the darkness of society, the suffering of the people and the tragedy of the times. He "cried our century with warm tears". "Why do I often have tears in my eyes? Because I love this land deeply ... ". But he firmly believes that his motherland, his beloved people, the "hardest and oldest race in the world" will "live strongly on the earth". Will never perish. "He always sings about resistance under oppression, struggle in suffering and light in darkness. During the "Miyun period" on the eve of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, he longed for the rise of national spirit "in deep resentment" and issued a warm call of "Please give me a fire, give me a fire": when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, he "brushed away the melancholy of the past" and sang "The Resurrected Land" with passion; He held high the "torch", ran to the sun, issued a "dawn notice", and in the cheers, "stretched out his arms" and ushered in the victory of the people. After returning from injustice, he denounced the ten-year catastrophe of "justice binds the masses and truth blinds the eyes", but he still sang "Charming Spring" and "Ode to Light" with emotion. We heard the echo of history and the call of the people from all his works. Seeing the stormy waves and joys and sorrows of the times, I feel the endless pursuit of light and hope for the future, thus gaining a deep inspiration and great spiritual strength. What the poet shows us is a positive, brilliant and colorful spiritual world closely related to the life of the times under the broad historical and cultural background. What he expressed in a series of excellent poems is the poetry of the great era that combines history, reality and future, and it is aesthetic experience, aesthetic feelings and aesthetic ideals, which can not only inspire people strongly, but also inspire people deeply. His poems are "a flicker of human upward spirit" and "a message sent by human beings to the future", which can "give human beings the courage to move towards ideals". He yearned for the light, pursued it and praised it all his life. His poetry creation always runs through a red line, which is a brilliant hymn symbolizing science and truth, wisdom and ideal, human hope and future, the development trend of the times and the historical direction.
Ai Qing always attaches great importance to the characteristics and laws of poetry itself, and always attaches great importance to the poet's own path, artistic personality and unique style while insisting on breathing with the people, the fate of the motherland and the pulse of the times. He emphasized that when writing, poets must always think: "Do I have something of my own?" ? Do I have my colors, lines and composition? "We should have" ourselves "and have our own artistic personality and style characteristics, instead of" just writing and writing, but nothing. "Ai Qing's" Myself ",his unique and distinctive artistic personality, is first manifested in his noble personality, broad mind, noble sentiment and his deep and passionate love for the people of the motherland and the human world. He always emphasized that "poets must tell the truth", "convey the most sincere love", and always maintain "sincere feelings", emphasizing that "a poem is a living sculpture of a soul" and "a poem is a kind of personality, and it must be lofty and complete. "In terms of spiritual temperament, Ai Qing's Myself, with its unique and distinctive artistic personality, shows the characteristics of bold and unrestrained dignity, liveliness and humor. As far as poetic style is concerned, Ai Qing's "I" is his unique and distinctive artistic personality, which is characterized by simplicity, simplicity, richness, naturalness, simplicity and profundity. Ai Qing hates artificial "enthusiasm", mysterious "abstruse", empty and gorgeous. He believes: "Noble will and pure soul are often more profound and lasting than beautiful forms and carved words. He advocates "making it as simple as possible" and "expressing profound and extensive thoughts in the simplest language is the most ideal poem". "He has always maintained a simple, transparent, sincere, open-minded, enthusiastic and calm heart. The inner smile always blooms naturally on his face. Deep pain and sadness will make him "often cry." "A complicated, intricate, contradictory and ever-changing picture of life. Through the refraction of his childlike innocence, it sometimes becomes extremely simple and clear. He is so good at explaining things in simple terms, lifting weights easily and enriching himself in simplicity. As the son of "Dayan River", Ai Qing initially accepted the traditional culture of China, and he had a special liking for China's long-standing, rich and exquisite classical poems. However, during the three years of studying in France, he was "poor in material and free in spirit", but he was fascinated by another novel and colorful art ocean on both sides of the strait. Paintings by Manet, Monet, Cezanne, Degas, Van Gogh, Picasso, Renoir, etc. And the works of poets and writers such as Apollinaire, Rambo, Baudelaire, Pushkin, Nikolai Nikolai Gogol, Dostoevsky, Ye Saining, Brock, Mayakovski, carl sandburg, Aragon, Valhallen and Whitman. They use that unique artistic conception to reflect reality and express their hearts. He admired Apollinaire's famous sentence: "I had a reed flute in those days, and I wouldn't exchange it with the scepter of the French marshal." He returned to the motherland from Europa, playing the "reed flute", "went to the Kuomintang prison and entered the poetry world with Wahallen's poems." However, as a poet in China, he consciously realized: "The poems written by China poets should have national style and style. This national style and style is mainly determined by the content ... it can have many forms of expression. "In his creation, Ai Qing not only insisted on inheriting the excellent tradition of China's classical poetry, but also extensively absorbed the techniques of various foreign art schools. He not only emphasizes the spirit of the times and practical significance of poetry, but also emphasizes the ideological and profound significance of poetry, and attaches great importance to the artistic beauty and formal beauty of poetry and the purity and exquisiteness of poetry language. Whether we inherit the tradition or learn from foreign countries, it is for new creation, in order to achieve the perfect combination of content and form through our own artistic innovation. From a large number of outstanding poems with different themes and styles in different periods, it can be seen that Ai Qing is an outstanding poet who attaches great importance to the content of poems and is good at constantly creating corresponding forms, attaching great importance to inheriting the excellent cultural traditions of Chinese poetry and being good at constantly pioneering and innovating, and attaching great importance to "absorbing the strengths of foreign poems". He learns from all good poems (including folk songs) at home and abroad and is good at creating his own artistic world.
Ai Qing has made remarkable achievements not only in poetry creation, but also in poetry theory and poetry aesthetics research. His poems and poets written in poetic language more than 70 years ago, as well as a series of articles commenting on poetry later, are full of insights and still have extremely important practical significance. His outstanding achievements in poetry creation and the construction of poetic aesthetic theory have not only influenced several generations of poets in Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, but also enjoyed a high reputation in China poetry circles and had a wide influence in international poetry circles. As early as 1954, when Ai was only 44 years old, Nie Luda, a great Chilean poet and Nobel Prize in Literature winner, called him "China's Poet". Robert Ferran, an American literary critic, named Ai Qing, Hikmet and Nie Luda as the three great people's poets in the modern world. After carefully studying Ai Qing's poems and poetics, Japanese scholar Kaori said that Ai Qing "belongs not only to China, but also to the whole world"1985 March 12. On March 2, the French President awarded Ai Qing the highest medal of French culture and art and said, "Among French friends, we are proud to have one of the greatest poets in China."
As the soul of China's poetry in the 20th century, a leading poet and a master of poetics, his artistic creation and its far-reaching significance and extensive influence certainly belong not only to the past, but also to the present and future. As early as in his twenties, the poet said in "On Poetry": "In the new society, the created morality will be carried forward indefinitely". "The history of mankind continues in constant creation. Human culture is brilliant because of continuous creation. " Today, we should learn from his precious heritage and innovative wisdom, learn from his lofty spirit and rich experience, and "create constantly" like him, so as to create new glory of China's poetry for our times, our motherland and mankind.
