Features: Since the inception of New Period Literature in China in the late 1970s, nearly three decades have passed. During these three decades, the face of contemporary Chinese literature has undergone earth-shaking changes. A host of outstanding writers and works have upheld a new sky for Chinese literature, which has rapidly integrated into the global literary trend and ushered in its most glorious period of development. "The Collected Materials for the Study of New Period Literature in China" (Volume A) compiles comprehensive research materials on the trends, schools, and literary forms of New Period Literature in China. It comprehensively organizes, presents, and summarizes the research history and context of New Period Literature, aiming to systematically showcase the achievements and current state of New Period Literature research. This book serves as a scientific reference and theoretical basis for a comprehensive and objective evaluation and understanding of New Period Literature.
This book is part of the "Collected Materials for the Study of New Period Literature in China" (Volume A) and includes dozens of outstanding literary critiques on poetry, along with an appendix presenting an overall index of related research findings. Modern poetry faces challenges, an undeniable fact. People have moved beyond despising the insincere and contrived poetry of flattery, and are no longer satisfied with poetry that is in content and in form. The print runs of poetry collections have plummeted, and poets are in distress. Meanwhile, some veteran poets are attempting to break new ground in both content and form, while a new generation of modern poets is rising, unbound by convention and boldly absorbing certain expressive techniques from Western modern poetry, producing some "strange" poems. The increasing signs of "deviation" from traditional poetry are forcing us to make realistic judgments and choices. We need not be troubled by this; instead, we should learn to adapt to this situation and guide it toward promoting the healthy development of modern poetry.
This book is part of the "Collected Materials for the Study of New Period Literature in China" (Volume A) and includes some of the most outstanding research findings on modern Chinese poetry. It combines systematicity in materials, scientific rigor in academia, diversity in perspectives, and authoritative selection, making it a valuable and authoritative reference for university libraries to preserve. It is also an indispensable resource for researchers of modern and contemporary literature, liberal arts teachers, college students, research institutes, writers' associations, and modern and contemporary literature societies.
