Features: The emergence and development of modern Chinese literature in the 20th century benefited from the development of exotic literary nutrients, with the translation of foreign poetry being the most prominent part of it. From Homer's epics to Ginsberg's Howl, from Dante's The Divine Comedy to Eliot's The Waste Land, countless outstanding poetic works, through the nurturing efforts of translators, have played an indispensable role in inspiring emotions and enlightening poetic art for several generations of Chinese people in the 20th and 21st centuries. To a certain extent, without translated poetry, there would be no modern Chinese poetry.
