How to learn to appreciate poetry

Ye Xie said in "The Original Poetry": "The three words of reason, matter and emotion are enough to exhaust the metamorphosis of all things. All kinds of sounds and sounds can't surpass this. This trick is for those who have something but can't go to anything. Talent, courage, knowledge and strength are these four words, so the god of exhausting this heart and all kinds of sounds are left here to make it clear. This move is for us, all of us are so open-minded. The author's article is based on the combination of my fourth and third article. The world's great latitude and longitude, fine and moving, sighing and chanting, can not be separated from what is said. "

Cao Wenxuan, a writer, said that the article is worth reading, which is nothing more than rational, affectionate and interesting.

Therefore, to appreciate poetry, we can simply proceed from these three angles. A poem that hits your heart is a good poem. In aesthetics, what causes aesthetic pleasure and shock is called pleasure. This pleasure may also come from senses and interest.

Besides, according to roland barthes, reading is also a kind of secondary creation. Different readers may have completely different aesthetic pleasure when accepting the same work, which is carried out by the individual characteristics of readers. But in general, we should broaden our aesthetic mind, do not set limits for ourselves, constantly refresh our aesthetic concepts, carefully and repeatedly read what we don't understand, and enhance our aesthetic ability, which is the basis of reading poetry.

How to appreciate new poetry can be found in my book Ten Lectures on the Popularization of Modern Poetry in China. We can intervene in poetry from many angles, such as form, content, emotion, soul and thinking.

Authenticity is the first condition to distinguish between good and bad poetry. This authenticity refers to literary authenticity, that is, emotional authenticity, ideological authenticity and soul authenticity. To put it bluntly, the heart embodied in the poem is true. Nowadays, there are too many pretentious fake poems with unique words, and the biggest taboo is the lack of authenticity and human touch.

Second, the way of presentation. There are many aesthetic requirements for poetry presentation, and innovation is the most important and difficult requirement.

In short, everyone has an aesthetic sincerity. If you cover it up, it will be true. If you read more, your appreciation will naturally improve.
