Features: As a leading figure in the advanced and mainstream culture of 20th-century China, Guo Moruo has always stood at the forefront of the times, keeping pace with progress. Against the backdrop of diverse cultural trends colliding and blending, he remained steadfast in cultural creation, dissemination, and activities, making pioneering or outstanding contributions in numerous academic and cultural fields. In poetry, Guo Moruo demonstrated exceptional talent. His poetic inspiration, ignited by the flames of the May Fourth Movement, was like a erupting volcano, unstoppable once unleashed. The role of poetry is to awaken the consciousness and awakening of a generation, to kindle passion, and to provide determination and courage at the spiritual level. The Goddess is precisely from this perspective, and it has received almost unanimous praise in the nearly century-long history of poetry. It is like the lightning of a new era, resembling a thunderbolt that tears through the dark night. With an unrestrained and flamboyant personality, agile and sensitive inspiration, burning and fervent passion, bold and fantastical imagination, solemn and rich colors, and a melody that alternates between urgency and tranquility, it calls forth and gives birth to the arrival of a new world. "It is not so much that you have poetic talent as that you have a poetic soul, for every one of your poems is your blood, your tears, your autobiography, your confession!" However, the fragrant wood on Danxue Mountain not only burned the poet's old body but also destroyed the forms of all contemporary youth.
