First, the characteristics:
Modern poetry is free in form and rich in connotation, and image management is more important than rhetoric application. Compared with ancient poetry, although they all perceive things and reflect the soul, they completely break through the characteristics of ancient poetry, which are "gentle and sincere, mourning without complaining", and emphasize more on free and open, straightforward statements, and communication between sensible and intangible.
The mainstream of modern poetry is free verse. Free verse is the product of the May 4th New Culture Movement, which uses vernacular in form, breaking the shackles of old-style poetry, and mainly reflects new life and expresses new ideas in content.
Second, narrative poems and lyric poems (divided by forms of expression)
1, narrative poem
There are relatively complete story lines and characters in poetry, which are usually expressed by the poet's passionate singing style. Epic, story poem and poetic novel all belong to this category.
Ancient Greek Homer's epics such as Heriat and Odyssey; Story poems, such as Wang Gui and Li Xiangxiang by China poet Li Ji, and Monkey King by Mingzhe and Lacny; Don Juan by British poet Byron and yevgeni onegin by Russian poet Pushkin.
2. Lyrics
Social life is mainly reflected by directly expressing the poet's thoughts and feelings, and it is not required to describe complete stories and characters. Such as love songs, carols, elegies, elegies, pastoral songs, satirical poems, etc.
Narration and lyricism are not absolutely separated. Narrative poetry is also lyrical, but its lyricism requires close combination with narrative. Lyric poems often describe some fragments of life, but they can't be spread out, and they must obey the needs of lyricism.
