The Poetic Origin of the Third Generation Poetry Group

The initial formulation of "the third generation of poetry" began in 1982, which was put forward by college students from several universities in Sichuan, including Hu Dong, Zhao Ye and Tang Yaping from Sichuan University, Liao Xi from Southwest Normal University and Wan Xia and Zhu Zhiyong from Nanchong Normal University, at a poetry debate in Beibei, Chongqing in June 1982. At that time, the students of Southwest Normal University borrowed Mao Zedong's famous formulation: Imperial capitalism pinned the dream of restoration on our third and fourth generations. However, after this concept was put forward, no specific poetry genre and text appeared. Until 1983, Sichuan University (He), Deng Xiang [3], Niu Huang, Tang Yaping established the "Chengdu College Students' Poetry Federation", and then edited and published the third generation of poetry collections, including Zhao Ye's poetry collection "Random Thoughts" and Deng Xiang's "One Man". And so on [4] poetry has a wide influence, and then it has become a poetry group that people pay attention to after the hazy poet. The third generation is the earliest poetry text of the third generation poets, and it is also a sign that the third generation poets stand up from the hazy poets.
