Terminology of modern literature in China. Also known as old-style poetry or old-style poetry for short. It is a general term for China's traditional poetic style, and it is very strict with the metrical style after the May 4th literary revolution, including the five-seven-character quatrains and five-seven-character metrical poems. This concept is mainly to distinguish it from modern new poetry, which has two meanings? First, before the appearance of new poetry, the meaning of ci fu, ancient customs, laws and rhymes since the Book of Songs was similar to that of "classical poetry". Second, it refers to the poetry works created by modern people in the form of classical poetry after the birth of new poetry. Modern writers in China, such as Lu Xun, Guo Moruo, Yu Dafu and Tian Han, have all written old-style poems. * * *, Zhu De, Chen Yi and other revolutionaries also used this form. From 1950s to 1960s, people from all walks of life also wrote old-style poems. At present, in the creation of old-style poems, some strictly follow the original requirements of classical poems in meter, while others are not rigidly bound by traditional meter.
