Artistic Features of Xu Zhimo's Poems

1. Musical beauty (rhyme) A. Musical beauty is to express musical beauty with syllables of poetry. Taking Farewell to Cambridge as an example, its rhyme and rhyme feet are: Lai and Cai (× i); Niang, Yang (iá ng); Shake it, grass (á o); Rainbow, dream (ó ng); Xiao, Qiao (á o); Come on, Cai. Each verse rhymes, one by one, and the rhythm is harmonious. B, cycle repetition. The first paragraph and the last paragraph are similar in meaning and rhythm, forming an echo structure. 2. The beauty of painting (rhetoric) The beauty of painting refers to the choice of colorful words in poetic language. The whole poem selects words such as "clouds, golden willows, sunset, waves, shadows, green flowers, rainbows and meadows", which gives readers a visual imagination and expresses the author's deep affection for Cambridge. The whole poem has seven sections, and almost every section has a picture that can be painted. If you gently wave goodbye to the clouds in the west, the golden willows along the river sway in the Hekang River; The aquatic plants at the bottom of the He Kang River are swaying, which seems to have something to say to the poet ... The author makes every painting full of flowing picture beauty, and gives people a three-dimensional sense through words with strong movements, such as waving, rippling, swaying, smashing, swimming back, waving and so on. 3. Architectural beauty (symmetry of sections and neatness of sentences) Architectural beauty is symmetry of sections and neatness of sentences. Farewell to Cambridge has seven sections, each with two sentences, with single and double lines staggered by one grid. No matter from the arrangement or the number of words, it is uniform and gives people a sense of beauty. First, Farewell to Cambridge is a beautiful lyric poem, just like an elegant and beautiful light music. 1In the autumn of 928, the author visited England again, revisiting his old place, which was full of poetry, and turned his life experience into a series of emotions, blending into the beautiful scenery of Cambridge and galloping in the poet's imagination. The whole poem begins with "tenderness", "walking", "waving" and "parting from the clouds", and then uses the alternating method of reality and reality to describe a series of flowing pictures, which constitutes a wonderful artistic conception and shows in detail the poet's love for Cambridge, longing for his past life and helpless sadness at present. This poem shows the poet's superb artistic skills. The poet combines specific scenery with imagination to form a vivid artistic image of poetry, and skillfully blends atmosphere, feelings and scenes into the artistic conception to achieve the feelings and scenes in the scene. The structure of the poem is rigorous and neat. The whole poem consists of 7 sections, each with 4 lines, forming two parallel steps; 1 and 3 lines are slightly shorter, and 2 and 4 lines are slightly longer, ranging from 6 to 8 words per line. It seems that the poet intends to combine the forms of metrical poetry and free verse, making it a new form of poetry, full of nationalization and modern architectural beauty. The language of the poem is fresh and beautiful, the rhythm is gentle and euphemistic, harmonious and natural. With the ups and downs of emotions, it is like a melodious board, light and tactfully, touching the readers' heartstrings. In the 1920s, the poet Wen Yiduo advocated the beauty of music, painting and architecture in modern poetry. Farewell to Cambridge can be said to have three beauties, and it is the swan song in Xu Zhimo's poems. 2. Section 1 of Farewell to Cambridge is about thousands of parting worries of long-lost students when they leave their alma mater. The use of the three words "tenderness" makes us feel that the poet seems to stand on tiptoe, like a breeze, quietly swinging away; And the deepest affection, in the tide, has become a "floating cloud in the west." Verses 2 to 6 describe the poet boating on the He Kang River in search of his dreams. The golden willows covered with sunset glow, the green grass on the soft mud and the pool under the shade of the tree all come into view. The two metaphors are quite accurate: the first one boldly imagines the "golden willow by the river" as a "bride in the sunset", which makes the dead scenery become a living thing, warm and pleasant; The second is that the clear pool water is suspected to be a "rainbow in the sky", but it has been crushed by floating algae and turned into a "rainbow-like dream". It is in "Crazy in Love" that poets, such as Zhuang Zhoumeng Butterfly, are interested in things and me, feel that "the beauty in the waves is rippling in their hearts" and are willing to be the water plants swaying in the gentle waves of He Kanghe. This good structure of the unity of subject and object is not only a wonderful hand, but also a painstaking effort; In verses 5 and 6, the poet opens up a new artistic conception. Borrowing the refrain of "dream/dream", "a boat full of splendor",/singing in splendor ",/but I can't sing" and "Summer insects are silent for me/silence is Cambridge tonight", the whole poem is pushed to * * *, just like a river of water, full of twists and turns! And his madness of singing in greener grass and bright stars has not been realized. At this time, silence and silence are better than many love words! The last section has three "quietness" corresponding to the first cycle. Come smartly, go smartly. With a wave of his sleeve, what shook off? Needless to say. Why take away a cloud when you've been in Cambridge once? The whole poem is the best description of Xu Zhimo's "poetic life" in one go. Hu Shi once said: "His outlook on life is really a' simple belief', and there are only three big characters in it: one is love, the other is freedom, and the third is beauty. He dreams that these three ideal conditions can be met in his life, which is his' simple belief'. The history of his life is only the history of his pursuit of this simple belief. " (In memory of Xu Zhimo) If so, isn't the poet's wandering by the He Kang River a microcosm of this pursuit? Xu Zhimo advocates artistic poetry. He deeply admired Yiduo's poetic ideas of beauty in music, painting and architecture, especially in music. He even said, "... only when we understand that the life of poetry lies in its internal rhythm can we appreciate the true interest of poetry: no matter how noble your thoughts are and how passionate your emotions are, you must be completely" musicalized "(that is, poetic) to gain an understanding of poetry ..." (Poetry Publishing Holiday). On the other hand, this poem "Biekangqiao": the whole poem consists of seven sections, four lines each, two meals each, eclectic, rigorous, rhyming strictly, two or four rhymes, cadence and catchy. This beautiful rhythm is like ripples, which is not only the voice of pious students' dreams, but also the ebb and flow of poets' feelings, and has a unique aesthetic. The seven verses are strewn at random, and the rhythm spreads slowly in them, which is quite a poet's temperament of "white robe and thin suburban island". It can be said that it embodies Xu Zhimo's poetic beauty thought. If we analyze Farewell to Cambridge, we should read Cambridge as I Know and introduce his daily life-at the same time, Xu Zhimo offended Lu Xun because he often published articles everywhere.
