What is the significance of Guo Moruo's Goddess in the history of new literature?

Goddess is Guo Moruo's first new poetry collection, and it is also an outstanding and influential new poetry collection in the history of modern literature in China.

1. The rebellious spirit of the goddess, the spirit of the times of the goddess, first of all is the rebellious spirit that strongly demands to break through feudal barriers and completely destroy and sweep the old world. The lyric hero of Goddess is a rebel who dares to resist feudal system and feudal thought, and a fighter who pursues personality liberation and demands self-esteem. The language of "I" in Tenggou seems to be in a state of ecstasy, which is an excellent expression of the emotion of destroying old things by violence. This sentiment is consistent with the general trend of ideological emancipation during the May 4th Movement. Therefore, the "I" in the poem is the representative of the spirit of the times.

2. The patriotic spirit of "Goddess" "Coal in the Furnace" is like coal, indicating that it is willing to dedicate all its light and heat to the motherland; Flowers of Tang Di, Nirvana of Phoenix, Rebirth of Goddess and other works all show strong patriotism in the form of self-sacrifice. The May 4th Movement itself is an anti-imperialist and patriotic political movement, and the patriotic enthusiasm of China people aroused by this movement is reflected in Goddess in the form of poetry.

3. The enterprising spirit of the goddess is the irresistible joy generated by the breath of the new revolutionary century, and it is also the expression of full confidence in the future. Therefore, the most representative works in Goddess are all praises of light and power, with bright colors, high tones and great momentum. Praise for the sun expresses the poet's enthusiasm for the newborn sun. Standing on the edge of the earth and blowing the horn praised the great power to overthrow the earth; The excitement of "good morning" is even more obvious. It shouted "good morning" 27 times in one breath, connecting itself with the world and showing the great boldness of a new generation of young people. The Outlook of Mount Billis and other works also show the enterprising spirit of seeking the new and abandoning the old.

The artistic feature of the goddess is 1. The formal creation of Goddess practices Guo Moruo's own creative idea of "extreme freedom and extreme autonomy" and completely liberates the form of poetry. "Goddess" does not pursue any fixed existing format, but lets feelings gallop naturally and show naturally, and naturally forms the rhythm of poetry according to the internal emotional rhythm. It has more than 50 poems, and each capital has a new format. "Tiangou" has a short poem; Standing on the edge of the earth, there is a kind of continuous affection, which is just suitable for expressing mourning; The poems in Nirvana of the Phoenix are uneven, long or short, full of changes, long or short, with a strong sense of rhythm, showing a tragic atmosphere.

2. Metaphors and Symbols in Goddess The Goddess often uses metaphors and symbols to express her feelings with the help of an image, which is the main feature of Guo Moruo's romanticism. In Goddess, no matter the characters in ancient myths and historical stories, or the personalized natural scenery, the image selection is very clever, appropriate and novel, which is consistent with the emotional content to be expressed. Mountains and rivers, the sun, the moon and the stars, lightning and thunder are all singing Guo Moruo's songs. "Tiangou" expresses the rebellious and destructive feelings to the world with the image of the destroyer in the sky in folklore, and "Coal in the Furnace" expresses the patriotic feelings of workers with the image of black humble "black slave"-coal, which is very novel and appropriate.

3. The bold style of the goddess is the pioneer of the bold school of new poetry. Although there are also works with the style of "beautiful but not handsome" in Goddess, Whitman's style of "handsome but not handsome" best represents the characteristics of Goddess. Its imagination is novel, its language is rough, its momentum is magnificent, its tone is fierce and its style is arbitrary. Its beauty is a magnificent and masculine beauty.
