Emotion is the core of poetry and the focus of poetry interpretation. The interpretation methods of ancient poetry and modern poetry are different. Ancient poetry emphasizes the interpretation of the emotions contained in poetry from the perspective of content, that is, excavating the emotions contained in poetry from the perspectives of scenery, things, people and things. The interpretation of modern poetry is more from the perspective of form, that is, following the laws of language organization, form application and thinking development of modern poetry, and interpreting its internal emotions from various angles from the basic points of "language defamiliarization", "image combination" and "structural rhythm".
First of all, talk about defamiliarization language and emotion.
Unfamiliar expression is the greatest pursuit of modern poetry.
Unfamiliar expression is to express the complex and changeable life of modern society with unfamiliar language, thus expressing one's deep thinking about society. Unfamiliar language is an innovation of familiar language expression, which aims to arouse alienation and produce novel aesthetic interest. The use of unfamiliar language by poets can bring new interest to poetry. Readers pay attention to the defamiliarization language of poetry, which can often be used as a starting point to capture the poet's secular desire in poetry.
Such as He Qifang's modern poem "Autumn" in the second quarter:
Drop a round net on the cold fog on the river,
Like a herring, put away the shadow of Chinese tallow leaves,
The reed crown is covered with frost,
Gently shake the parked paddle,
The autumn sports meeting is held on fishing boats.
The first time I read this poem, there are several strange expressions in the language that are intriguing.
Why is it "cold fog on the river" instead of "spreading a round net on the river covered with cold fog"
Can the shadow of Chinese tallow leaves be put away?
Why is the "frost" dominated by "full load"?
Can you say autumn "game"?
However, good poetry transcends the conventional language expression and the deep feelings contained in the surface layer of the poet's variant language.
"Spreading a round net on the river covered with cold fog" instead of "spreading a round net on the river covered with cold fog" means emphasizing the image of "cold fog", on the one hand, taking care of the title of "autumn", on the other hand, the image of "cold fog" naturally creates a cold atmosphere in late autumn, which is helpful to convey fishermen's leisure feelings in late autumn.
Why put away "the shadow of Chinese tallow leaves is like a herring"? First, from the image point of view, the image of "Sapium sebiferum leaf" is more in line with the artistic conception of poetry. "Sapium sebiferum leaves", deciduous trees and leaves alternate, slightly rhombic, and turn red in autumn, so the image of "Sapium sebiferum leaves" can better express the artistic conception in autumn; Secondly, "black snapper" is a real image, and "the shadow of Chinese tallow leaves" is a virtual image. Using "black snapper" to modify "Sapium sebiferum leaf shadow" weakens the material gain and strengthens the spiritual gain, which accords with the content of "full frost" and "gently shaking" in the back.
Why does "the reed shed is full of frost" use "full load" instead of "cover"
On the one hand, "full load" vividly describes the depth of frost, and "full load of frost" also means little harvest, which is in line with the content of the next poem "gently shaking", which highlights the lightness of material and enhances the pleasure of spirit at the same time. "Gently shaking the paddle back to the berth" shook the fisherman's indifferent and leisurely attitude towards life and dispelled the poet's continuous poetic sentiment.
Why do you want to use "game" instead of "full load" in Fishing Boat Autumn Tour?
? The main purpose of "game" is to get pleasure directly. Through the experience of fisherman's game, the poet tells readers that labor is pleasant, life is full of interest, and material gains are far less than spiritual pleasure.
The above analysis makes us understand a truth. Sometimes, using the "contradiction" and "entanglement" of modern poetry language, we can accurately grasp the complex emotional connotation of poetry and complete the interpretation of complex works.
