What does Lowell introduce?

Lowell, 19 17 was born in a noble family in Boston, USA. 1937 He transferred from Harvard University to Kenyon College in Ohio, studied under John Crowe Lanson of New Criticism, and began to devote himself to poetry creation with "neat form and difficult content". 1940, the descendants of Puritans converted to the archbishop. 1943 was imprisoned for refusing to perform military service. 1946 published a collection of poems, Lord Willie's Castle, which received good response and won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. Most of the collected 42 poems have strong religious color and social significance. Based on Catholic teachings, he profoundly exposed the Puritans' sins in history through myths and fables, and lashed out at the American society that advocated money and force.

195 1 published a collection of poems, The Mill of kavanagh Family, in which there is a narrative poem of about 600 lines, which describes the dream, memory and morbid psychology of a naval officer's widowed wife in a dramatic monologue. Most of his poems in this period adopted traditional forms, with rigorous meter and concise language.

Between 195 1 and 1958, Lowell did not publish any poems, and he lost confidence in the archbishop. From 65438 to 0957, he went to the American coast to recite poems, and was moved by the Howl recited by the beat poet Ginsburg, and turned to Whitman and william carlos williams's free poems. The Portrait of Life (1959) marks a great change in Lowell's poetic style. He wrote a group of free and blank poems, such as "Our Last Afternoon with Uncle Frodo", which expressed his memories of childhood, "Captain Lowell", remembered his parents, Searle and Dumbarton, missed his hometown and relatives, and described his unfortunate married life, and "Waking in Boundless Space" described his feelings in a mental hospital. These poems describe their life experiences and psychological changes frankly and simply. In the famous Memories of West Street and Lopke, he recalled his crazy youth and prison life from the quiet 1950s. The time of skunk's appearance reflects his pain of alienation and his pursuit of self-liberation in despair. These autobiographical poems are full of real life experiences, and the language is simple, kind and touching.

Lowell took part in political activities in the 1960s when he was teaching at Harvard University from 1963 to 1977. 1965 He refused the invitation of President Johnson to the White House banquet. 1967, together with the writer norman mailer and others, he opposed the Vietnam War and marched into the Pentagon. During this period, he published a collection of poems, Dedicated to the Victims of the Federation (1964) and Close to the Ocean (1967). 1970, Lowell lived in England. 1973 published the poem Dolphin, which won him the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry.

Many of Lowell's poems reflect the anguish and resentment of sensitive intellectuals in the turbulent American society and have a strong sense of reality. Poetry not only develops the traditional meter in form, but also injects the fresh style of free body. In terms of artistic techniques, it represents two major trends of modern poetry: one is to express "universal" things by metaphor, and the other is to reveal the process of "self-seeking" and alienation.

Lowell died in America on 1977.
