"Qinyuanchun·Changsha" belongs to "new poetry".
New poetry refers to the poetry genre that was produced before and after the May 4th Movement, which is different from classical poetry and uses vernacular as its basic language method.
In the development process of Chinese literature, poetry (including poems, rhymes, lyrics, songs, etc.) has achieved high achievements. But in modern times, the creation of classical poetry has gradually become rigid, full of "clichés", and the tendency of "moaning for no reason" is quite common. The vocabulary used in classical poetry is seriously out of touch with modern spoken language.
Its strict restrictions on form (including syntax, sentence patterns, allusions, and rhythm) have caused poetry to express the ever-changing and increasingly complex social life and express people's true thoughts and feelings. Great restraint. Therefore, the New Poetry Revolution became the first and most important component of the May 4th New Literature Movement.
Extended information
The poem "Qinyuanchun·Changsha" was written in December 1925. The revolutionary movement was flourishing at that time. The May 30th Movement and the provincial and Hong Kong general strikes broke out one after another. Mao Zedong directly led the peasant movement in Hunan. At the same time, the united front of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party has been established, and the National Revolutionary Government has been formally established in Guangzhou.
In the late autumn of this year, Mao Zedong went to Guangzhou to host a peasant movement workshop. During his stay in Changsha, he revisited Juzizhou and wrote this poem. Mao Zedong was 33 years old when he wrote "Qinyuanchun·Changsha".
At that time, the revolutionary situation was on the rise and the mass movement was surging. In January, the Party's "Fourth National Congress" was held in Shanghai. In September, Mao Zedong participated in the preparatory work for the Kuomintang's "Second National Congress" in Guangzhou. In October, he was elected as the acting propaganda minister of the Kuomintang. Mao Zedong was in high spirits and felt very comfortable. This poem was first published in "Poetry Magazine" on January 1, 1957. ?
In 1925, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the national worker and peasant movement was on the rise, and the revolution was developing extremely rapidly. The "May 30th Movement" and the Provincial and Hong Kong General Strikes that shocked the world also spread to more than a dozen provinces, and various forms of anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggles were being carried out in full swing.
At this time, on the one hand, the workers' and peasants' revolutionary movement was booming, and on the other hand, the reactionary forces were frantically suppressing the revolutionary forces in order to maintain their reactionary rule. So where will the fate of the Chinese nation go? Should we continue to maintain the reactionary rule of darkness and decline, or overthrow the rule of darkness and move toward prosperity and progress? Who will be the force that dominates the direction of development? These issues have become the focus of people's attention. ?
Changsha is the provincial capital of Hunan, where Mao Zedong studied and engaged in revolutionary activities in his early years. In February 1925, he returned to Hunan from Shanghai to launch the peasant movement. In August, he went from Shaoshan to Changsha, and in September Went to Guangzhou to host the National Peasant Movement Workshop.
During my stay in Changsha, I revisited Juzizhou. Facing the beautiful and moving natural autumn scenery on the Xiangjiang River, I recalled the revolutionary situation at that time, so I wrote the song "Qinyuanchun·Changsha" with the title "Changsha". 》.
