On Classical Tendencies In The New Century Chinese Poetry

The new century Chinese poetry which has not been historicized and outlined up to now often gives us a complex unorganized overall impression.But this does not mean that any effort to study them is completely futile.After inspecting the new century poetry,I will outline one of the features of the new century Chinese poetry as the classical tendencies,which is because not only many of the poets in the interview can be seen in the efforts of classical trend,but also from the text in many Chinese poems in the new century,you can taste the characteristics of classicism.This article is divided into three chapters,and the first chapter discusses the longitudinal development of classicism.It does not begin in the new century,but begins in the beginning of the 20th century,and then it developed in eighty to ninety years later:classicism had started,developed and then strangled slightly in the 1920s-1970.You can see the poets’ unconscious classicism transformed to the conscious learning from the classical;In the 1980s-1990s classicism met its explosive development,and this kind of classicism,adopt strategies of "copying"the classical text and poetics into the creation of modern Chinese poetry;And after 1990 s in classicism,poets began to go to different ways,in which one of the branches is trying to mix the classical and modern up in their Chinese poetry such as poet ZhangZao;Chinese poetry in the new century,is more conscious of the genre,and greatly expanded its influence and scale.This chapter try to combine context combing and description methods,to present a Chinese poetry vertical landscape of the development of classicism.The second chapter divides the new century Chinese poetry in classicism by the way of modern Chinese poetry learning from classicism.I can divided them into two categories,one is copying classical themes and form to the modern text,such as new idyll and ancient matters rewriting,the former imitates classical pastoral from subject to the style,and the latter rewrites events in the classical text of modern Chinese poetry without changing its spiritual connotation;another one is selectively learn classical themes,spirit,tactics,etc.I were to summarize the performance from the imagery,and spiritual practices in three areas,to present a modern Chinese poetry how to be near to classical.The third chapter attempts do an in-depth discussion to the aesthetic generation of classicism on the basis of the second chapter,and the main point is how to deal with the relationship between classical theme,modern language environment,modern life and classical spirit.In the modern Chinese poetry that reproduce classical life,the poet invariably adopted utopian dimensions of reality purification method,the revival of classical Chinese vocabulary and returning to the collective common inner life.And most of those Chinese poetry which bring modern spirit into the classical writing take a playful tone to deconstruct the classical spirit.This points to the content rather than form,so this type of Chinese poetry has classical and modern features.
