self and the external world constitute the basic contradiction in the development of the human mind.The various sufferings suffered by human beings come not only from the oppression of the external world,but also from the shortcomings of human beings themselves.The "conflict between gods and demons" can not only express the struggle at the inner level of the poet’s self-subject,but also reflects

they can be transformed into each other and coexist with each other.The simultaneous appearance of these two opposing images in Mu Dan’s poetry will produce a This kind of inner conflict,the coexistence of "God and Demon" in the poet’s writing will inevitably lead to a kind of spiritual pain,which is hot and rich in the poet’s writing.If the pain of the soul is the embodiment of the coexistence of "gods and demons" in Mu Dan’s poetry,then Mu Dan’s description of nature also has a tendency of "the coexistence of gods and demons".The writing of the dialectical relationship between human beings is highlighted by the expression of human beings’ love and elf-like expression for all things in nature,as well as the impulse to destroy and destroy.The fourth chapter mainly examines

Dan is placed in a unique historical context.He uses his own soul to experience the history of changes in modern society.Under the complex experience of modernity,the poet has a sense of division and fragmentation of the subject.This is exactly what the poet’s heart The "gods" and "devils" are at work.The modern experience of Mu Dan’s personal emotions and the modern experience of social history are not separated and isolated,but he integrates the cognition of the two and seeks the positioning of self-cognition,until finally through the relationship with "god" and "devil".The struggle reaches the radiance of humanity and virtue.Mu dan’s poems are highly complex and abundant,His poems show the highest point that modern poetry in the 20 th century can reach in the form of allegory and profound thoughts.In order to advance the further understanding of Mu Dan and his poems,this article takes the struggle and struggle between the two images of "God" and "Demon" as the anchor,trying to
