Han Dong is the soul of They poetry community,looked upon as the icon and leader of the third generation poetry.Compared with other poets,the most prominent feature of Han's spiritual world is to regard poetry as his own life linguistic form,and pursue absolute truth about the existence of life and poetry creation."Breaker" is a symbolic expression of the image of Han Dong's poetry.Han Dong's pursuit of the truth embodies the characteristics of walking to faith from nothingness.Han Dong's spiritual journey is embodied in different forms and different fields of Han Dong's poetic world in the past 40 years,including his poetic behavior,poetic works and poetics.It is necessary to conduct an overall study on Han Dong's poetic behaviors,poetic texts and poetics from the perspective of ideological evolution,since there is deficiency of the research in this perspective.This paper adheres to the principle of the unity of historical and logical methods and the writing method of an argument from history,aiming at fully revealing the ideological evolution of the poet Han Dong's continuous pursuit of the truth of life existence and poetry creation in the past 40 years and thus providing a preliminary study on the value of Han Dong's poetry and poetics.The first chapter studies the complex relationship between the poet Han Dong's individuality,poetic behavior and the times from the perspective of sociology and cultural ecology,aiming at presenting the formation of Han Dong's individuality objectively,describing the ice-breaking journey with his contemporaries to break with traditions and orders which cover up life and works through various external factors.The first section studies the generation of Han Dong's life personality and its profound influence on his poetic world from the perspective of sociology.The second section studies how Han Dong and his peers break with the literary tradition by initiating aesthetic revolution,establish poetic association and running poetic journals in the 1980s from the perspective of media,and finally create the avant-garde poems and form the poetic thought with the characteristics of genres and generations.The third section studies their challenge against the literary and poetic order by revolutionary literary behavior in order to reveal their poetics and works at the end of the last century and the far-reaching effects of these actions in the view of cultural ecology.Han Dong's actions all runs through a red line,the literary view of returning to life,individual life and poem itself in questioning the tradition of existing poetics.Han Dong's literary ideal and poetic view are consistent,however,there is a break between his and traditional literary view.In the special cultural ecology,the rationality and inevitability of their poetic theory and works is manifested through the revolutionary literary behavior of Han Dong and his peers,which accelerates the differentiation and diversification of literary and poetic circles,The disillusionment of Han Dong's literary revolutionary belief,the evolution of Han Dong's ideology.Han Dong's pursuit of the truth of life existence is embodied in the theme of his poetry.The second chapter adopts the methods of text study,biographical study,influence study and literary sociology to analyze the theme of human existence in Han Dong's poetry.The first section analyzes the theme of man and nature.Some of the poems virtualize,absurdize,metaphorize and symbolize nature in expressing the theme of antagonism between man and nature,while in other poems,the theme of harmonious symbiosis between man and nature is characterized by the way of sensuous narration,blending feelings with the environment,and putting reason in narrative.Han Dong's change of natural view,aesthetic view and perceptual perspective is the ideological and aesthetic basis for the evolution of the theme of man and nature.The second section analyzes the theme of human love in Han Dong's poetry.The importance of love to life is the center of the emotional expression in Han Dong's poetry.In the writing of love,the lyric structure of "I" to "you" and lyrical,narrative,symbolic and reasonable means are used to express the themes of love begetting life,love turning away from life,love destroying life and love itself is the meaning of life.In the writing of family affection,the tone of conversation between"I" and "you" and "third-person narrative" is often used to express his mixed feelings about the death of his father and reflect their deep spiritual connection.In the writing of mother-son feelings,modern techniques like describing portrait,action,details and scenes are often adopted to express his deep but contradictory love for his mother and his profound understanding of the nature of love itself.In the writing of friendship,a combination of realism and symbolism is often used to express his aloofness for the loss of friendship,worries and blessings for his friends,joy of knowing and helping friends and lamenting and remembering friend's early death.The change of faith from love to love itself is the ideological basis for the evolution of the emotional theme in Han Dong's poems.The third section analyzes the theme of man and society in Han Dong's poems.The writing of social existence focuses on the conflict between modernization and individual's nature;the writing of the realization of "being in the world" reveals the mystery of life and death through symbolism and aphorism;the writing of the meaning of life records his spiritual search for faith in love,the establishment of which promotes the spiritual realm of his poetry in recent years.Corresponding to Han Dong's identity as a cross-border poet and his rich experience of pursuing the truth of being,the artistic techniques that carry and express the theme of existence of life must also be cross-border,which is studied in the third chapter with a comparative method.The aim is to present objectively his innovative creation of poems against the background of new poetry nationalization and westernization.Generally speaking,although Han Dong's poetic art is unconsciously influenced by the translated poetry,the new artistic quality of his poetry mainly comes from a comprehensive influence of novel,painting and film and television art.From novel,Han Dong learns characterization,narrative discourse and narrative art,etc.From painting,Han Dong quotes a lot of artistic techniques into his poems,for example,realism,still life sketching,conveying feelings through color and implying meaning,etc.With his knowledge on colors and the principle of spatial perspective,Han Dong also prefers to use pure words,color words and orientation words in creating poems.From film and television,Han Dong introduces camera position perspective,montage structure and script dialogue and monologue into his writings.The above new artistic qualities constitute an integral part of the narrative art of Han Dong's poetry.This poetic narrative aesthetics symbolize a break with the image aesthetics of Today poetry.Reflecting on past poetic behavior,writing process and pursuing the truth of poetry creation,Han Dong broke through the barriers of traditional poetics and the poetics School Today and formed his own unique poetic theory of life existence.The fourth chapter combines historical research with influence study to discuss all of Han's poetry in the past 40 years.Han Dong's life existentialism poetics consists of two parts:poetic creation theory and poetic essence theory.There are three ways to produce it:creative understanding,poetic dialogue and cross-border stimulation of knowledge.The first section discusses the basic connotation and generation of poetic creation theory.It is a theoretical summary of Han Dong's experience in creation of himself and the poets of the same generation.As for thought and content,Han Dong thinks that the inspiration of poetry comes mainly from reading,emotional expression and daily life.As for art,he proposes to write poems in colloquial standard language,advocating the variety of language sources,modes and forms of free-style poetry,and the language style of returning to the simplicity in writing poems.As for creation pattern,he advocates the freedom and pluralism of poetic writing.In addition,he opposes to the monistic supremacy of writing and criticism.A prominent feature of poetic creation theory is the integration and co-existence of diversified thoughts rather than binary confrontation.The basic connotation of poetic essence theory is:Poetry is a combination of the unique existence of "I" and the limited linguistic form of poetic language.The former refers not only to the experiential characteristics and divinity in the poet's individuality,but also to the real existence experience(experience and transcendence)which the poet goes deep into the whole world(real and supernatural world).The latter refers to the limited branch form of the free-style poetry.Han Dong always believes good poetry is that "my inner world and language is in a high degree of unity".Han Dong's poetic essence theory has developed from life experience to existence experience as noumenon,which is in fracture with that of the poetic school Today.The former embodies the genres and inter-generational consensus of Han Dong's poetics,and the latter the individuality.The two stages has its own historical,realistic and poetic context,as well as the different ideological and artistic sources drawn from it.The relationship between the two is progressive and transcending rather than negative and alternative.The conclusion discusses the value and enlightenment of Han Dong's poetry and poetics.The main value is the pioneer spirit and uniqueness.The nature writing of Han Dong's poems shows the tendency of modern spirit and then post-modern spirit,and artistically he adopts the writing techniques including overall symbolism,sensuous narrative and superego perspective.As a result,many of his poems are avant-garde in a specific period of time.The value of emotional writing of human relations in Han Dong's poetry lies in the fact that the emotion of love is of great significance to the existence of human life.Its artistic value lies in the objective way of expressing emotions using techniques of narrative literature to describe details,scenes,actions and dialogues.The theme "man and society" reveals the mystery of life and death of modern people and establishes a faith on love for modern people.The use of whole symbolism and allegory is a prominent artistic feature.The cross-border experiment of Han Dong's poetic art enlightens us:in addition to the direction of nationalization and westernization in poetry pedigree and thexperiment e creation of cross-border poetry outside the poetry lineage,the cross-border of poetic art will not only maintain the independence of the form of poetry,but also open up a broad aesthetic prospect for the future development of contemporary poetry.The self-reliance of poetry can open up a broad aesthetic prospect for the future development of contemporary poetry.Han Dong's life existence poetics is a poetic theory that recognizes the complete existence of the world and people and "leads to the absolute".The value of the creation theory shows that the independent free spirit and the multi-element thinking style of the creation are the necessary way to the development of contemporary poetry and art.The value of the intergenerational part opens an era in which contemporary poetry returns to itself and individual,the value of the individuality part is to criticize contemporary existential utilitarianism in poetry creation.It innovates modern people's world outlook,humanistic view,cognitive view and poetic view,points out that the highest realm of human being and poetic creation is love without me,and gives new status and dignity to human life and poetry.The individuality part of his theory makes people realize that as a religious being,they have a positive absolute nature,which means that modern people may become perfect new people and create a new way of coexistence with all living things,and consciously shoulder the mission and responsibility of taking care of the home of the earth.The innovation of the thesis is reflected in three aspects:In terms of research materials,the thesis not only excavates the materials that people didn't pay much attention to in the past,such as Han Dong's published articles when he was the chief editor of the poetic journals Furong,but also sorts out and analyzes thoroughly these articles on Han Dong's life story and poetry behavior which were scattered in websites,newspapers,books,papers,Han Dong's prose collection,blog and micro blog,etc.in the view of sociology and cultural ecology.Since these contents are not well-known in the academic field,it will have certain historical and academic value.In terms of research mode,apart from drawing on the strength of the past case studies to mainly talk about poetry and poetics,this paper also focuses on the complex relationship between Han Dong and the times,and Han Dong and other poets in life and art,which makes up for the shortages of the past study methods.In terms of present research methods and perspectives,the overall research on Han Dong's poetry is not enough in domestic academic circle.It is more rare to use the method of comparison and influence research to analyze the "cross-border" characteristics of his poetry art and the formation of his poetic thoughts.Therefore,the relevant conclusions of this paper have a certain academic value.It can lay a foundation for the study on the poetry and poetics of the third generation and They,as well as the study on contemporary poetry and poetics history.
