Characteristics of poetry anthology

1, the rhythm of poetry

Traditional poetry is called verse, and its unique structure, rhythm and rhythm are different from prose. Words and syllables in European languages are different, so western poetry also pays special attention to the rhythm of words. Since the Greek era, many poems have been composed of meter, such as iambic or iambic. In China, because Chinese words can be composed of two or three words, for example, a seven-sentence poem can usually be divided into "four, three" or "two, two, three" phrases. Because of this feature, each phrase naturally forms a short pause, forming a unique sense of rhythm in China's poems.

2. The rhythm of poetry

Both western and China's poems pay attention to the phonology of words, and often associate sentence endings with rhymes. Chinese itself has the difference between flat and flat, so many poems have certain format requirements for the tone of words, which is called meter.

3. The structure of poetry

Traditional poetry has certain format requirements for the number of bytes and sentences in each sentence. It uses neat sentences or irregular long and short sentences to achieve the aesthetic feeling of rhythm, such as western sonnets, and China's modern poems use five-character quatrains and seven-character metrical poems.

4, the skills of poetry

Poetry often uses the combination of words, sentences and paragraphs to give meaning hierarchy and relevance, and also expresses aesthetic feeling through antithesis, parallelism and overlapping words and sentences. Rhythm and rhythm can not only create musical effects, but also realize the functions of association and singing.

In content, poems often use metaphors, metaphors, metonymies and other "poetic language" stylistic techniques to imply some meanings beyond words, enhance imagination through the description of scenery, and even create two different images that reflect each other, leaving a diverse and free interpretation space for poems.
