Analysis of the romantic characteristics of "The Goddess"
Guo Moruo's "The Goddess" is a collection of romantic poems. The main features are:
p>
1. The spirit of romanticism. Romanticism values ??subjectivity and emphasizes self-expression. "The Goddess" is a poem of "self-expression". The phoenix in the poem, etc., are all the poet's "self-expression". The subjective spirit of "self" in the poem is a strong spirit of resistance and rebellion, and an idealistic spirit that pursues light.
2. An expression of explosive catharsis. Romanticism takes the direct expression of one's feelings as the main expression, and the direct expression of one's feelings in poetry is expressed as an eruptive catharsis. Poems such as "Phoenix Nirvana" most typically embody this expression feature.
3. Strange imagination and exaggeration. For example, from the folk tale of Tengu swallowing the moon, one imagines that the Tengu swallowed up the entire universe, "roaring like the sea" and so on. This extremely exaggerated and strange imagination can best express the strong demand for personal liberation and the spirit of resistance and rebellion against the old world.
4. The way the image is depicted has a heroic style.
5. In terms of language, it is highly subjective. Some sentences describing nature are stained with the poet's subjective feelings at that time.
6． The formal creation of "Goddess" "Goddess" implements Guo Moruo's own creative ideas of "extreme freedom, extreme autonomy", completely liberating the form of poetry. "Goddess" does not pursue any fixed existing format. It allows emotions to flow and express naturally. It naturally forms the rhythm of the poem based on the inner emotional rhythm.
Each of its more than fifty poems is a new format. The poems of "Tengu" are short; "Standing on the Edge of the Earth and Calling the Numbers" has a kind of endless affection, which is just suitable for expressing the feeling of nostalgia; the poems of "Phoenix Nirvana" are uneven, using both long and short, full of changes, or long. , or short singing, with a strong sense of rhythm, showing a tragic atmosphere.
7. "Goddess" often uses metaphors and symbols to express and express one's feelings with the help of a certain image, so that the feelings can be expressed vividly. This is the main feature of Guo Moruo's romantic poetry.
In "Goddess", whether it is characters from ancient myths, historical stories, or personified natural scenery, the choice of images is very clever, appropriate, and novel, consistent with the emotional content to be expressed. , mountains and oceans, sun, moon and stars, wind, cloud, thunder and lightning, all sing "Guo Moruo's Song".
"Tengu" uses the image of the heavenly destroyer in folklore to express the rebellious and destructive emotions towards the world, while "Coal in the Furnace" uses the black and lowly "black slave" who is suppressed underground—— The image of coal is very novel and appropriate to express the patriotism of the toilers.
8． The bold style of "The Goddess" is the forerunner of the bold style in new poetry. Although there are works with a "beautiful but not masculine" style in "The Goddess", what represents the characteristics of "The Goddess" is Whitman's "majestic but not beautiful" style. Its imagination is novel, its language is rough, its momentum is majestic, its tone is exciting, and its style of writing is unbridled. Its beauty is a kind of sublime, masculine beauty.
