Guo Moruo's Understanding of Poetry Rhythm in On Rhythm

Rhythm is an important part of the beauty of poetry music, which is usually manifested in the regular changes of sound length, height and speed. The rhythm of poetry has a corresponding relationship with the emotional changes in the poet's heart. Guo Moruo pointed out in "On Metrics": "Lyric poetry is the direct writing of emotions, and the progress of emotions has its own wave-like form, either suppressing first and then raising, or raising first and then suppressing, or alternately suppressing, which has become the rhythm of poetry. Therefore, rhythm is its shape and life for poetry. " At all times and in all countries, there is no rhythm without poetry, because without rhythm, it is not poetry.
