China's modern poetry is the poetry since the May 4th Movement. China's modern poetry mainly refers to new poetry. It is characterized by writing in vernacular Chinese, expressing the new contents of the era of science and democracy, breaking the shackles of the old rhyme of old poems and being flexible and free in form. So generally don't pay attention to confrontation and so on.
The format of poetry is also a problem that must be paid attention to, except writing by content or sentence, especially in the organization of language. Mainly manifested in two aspects: first, the use of rhetoric; The first is to break the conventional combination. Flexible use of various rhetoric can enhance the vitality of poetry, and boldly breaking the conventional combination (that is, not matching according to grammatical requirements) can achieve unexpected results, but it should not be too much.
Rhetoric is an important skill in poetry. Including personification, metaphor, parallelism, rhetorical question, repetition, thimble, duality, exaggeration, symbol and so on. It can be said that each expression technique has its own uniqueness. The use of metaphor can express the content of poetry more vividly and vividly. The use of xing can make readers understand the artistic conception of poetry from the beginning, and make poetry more affectionate and lasting appeal; The use of exaggeration, symbolism, synaesthesia and other techniques can inject more fresh blood into poetry, make poetry more imaginative and approachable, without making people feel vague and obscure, and make readers truly understand the thoughts and feelings expressed by the author.
Symbolism, on the other hand, uses concrete things to express a special meaning, which is the most commonly used technique in poetry. For example, Bing Xin's Paper Boat symbolizes the yearning for his mother, and Feng Zhi's I am a river symbolizes the pursuit of love. Usually we also like to use symbols, such as "plum blossom" to symbolize perseverance and "candle" to symbolize silent dedication. Wang Jiaxin's Beyond the Mountain uses "sea" and "mountain" to symbolize "ideal" and "difficulties and setbacks in pursuing ideal". Do you know the common symbolic meanings of the following objects? Sun, bees, flies, mosquitoes, snowflakes? Bright, selfless, dirty, exploitative and pure.
There are crescent school and hazy school.
Crescent School is an important school in the history of modern new poetry, which is divided into two periods with 1927 as the boundary. The early stage began in the spring of 1926, supplemented by Beijing Morning Post? Poetry magazine is the front, and its main members are Wen Yiduo, Xu Zhimo, Zhu Xiang, Rao Mengkan, Sun Dayu and Liu. They are dissatisfied with the style of "free poets" who ignored the art of poetry after the May 4th Movement, advocate new metrical poetry, advocate "rational emotional control", and oppose the promiscuity and prosaic tendency of poetry. From theory to practice, they made a serious exploration of the new poetic meter. Wen Yiduo put forward the famous thought of "three beauties" in "The Metre of Poetry", that is, "the beauty of music, the beauty of painting and the beauty of architecture". Therefore, the crescent school is also known as the "new metrical poetry school". The crescent school corrected the weakness of the early poetry creation that was too informal, and also made the new poetry enter the period of conscious creation. /kloc-in the spring of 0/927, Hu Shi, Xu Zhimo, Wen Yiduo, Liang Shiqiu and others founded Crescent Bookstore, and the monthly magazine Crescent was founded the following year. The main activities of the "Crescent School" moved to Shanghai, which was later the Crescent School. Its main positions are New Moon and Poetry, which were founded in 1930. The new members are Chen, Fang and Bian. In the later period, the Crescent School put forward the principles of "health" and "dignity", adhered to the position of "pure poetry" which was super-utilitarian, self-expression and aristocratic, and emphasized "purity of essence, thoroughness of technique and rigor of meter". However, the artistic expression and lyricism of poetry are close to modernist schools.
The beauty of music in the "three beauties" means that each section of the new moon poem is different, just like music. Architectural beauty means that the format of poetry is like architecture. The beauty of painting is that every paragraph of a crescent poem can be painted.
Obscure Poetry School: A school of poetry that appeared in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Its representatives are Beidao, Shuting, Gucheng, He Jiang and Yang Lian. As a creative group, "misty poetry" has not formed a unified organizational form, nor has it issued a declaration. But it has formed a "rising poetry group" with its own independent artistic thoughts and creative achievements. At that time, there was a debate about misty poetry in the literary world. The spiritual connotation of "misty poetry" has three levels: one is to expose darkness and social criticism; Second, seeking light in the dark, reflecting the sense of exploration and strong heroism; Third, based on humanitarianism's special concern for "people". "Misty poetry" rewrites the traditional model of describing "reality" and illustrating policies in the past, and regards poetry as an important way to explore life, which has reached an unprecedented height in philosophical significance. In a sense, the rise of "misty poetry" is also the rise of the life tree of China literature.
