Calling for the grandeur and magnificence of poetry in the new era

Li Shaojun

On the morning of December 14, I listened to General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the 11th WenDai and 10th Literary Congresses in the Great Hall of the People, and I was very excited. In his speech, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "the new journey of the new era is the historical orientation of contemporary Chinese literature and art", emphasized that "the new era needs the peak of literature and art, and it can also cast the peak of literature and art", pointing out the direction of literary and artistic creation in the new era, which makes people excited. For the poetry world, this is a mobilization order to set off a climax of poetry creation in the new era. Combined with the work of "Poetry Journal", I deeply feel that poetry in the new era has a broad creative world.

General Secretary Xi Jinping said in the last part of his speech: "'Dapeng rises with the same wind in one day and rises to 90,000 miles'. This is a poem written by the great poet Li Bai when he was young and traveling with a sword, when he felt the vigorous atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty and the lofty ambition of Ling Yun in his chest. Indeed, the Sheng Tang meteorology is presented by the Poetry of the Sheng Tang Dynasty, and Li Bai's free and romantic, open and enterprising, and imposing poetry and image are the best aesthetic representatives and aesthetic symbols of the Sheng Tang Weather. General Secretary Xi Jinping also said in his speech: "Literature and art win with images, and classic literary and artistic images will become an important symbol of literature and art of the times." "The new era also needs such poetry that can reflect the atmosphere of the new era." In order to depict the magnificent atmosphere of the new journey of the new era in accordance with general secretary Xi Jinping, to write the endless people's epic, to open up a new realm of literature and art, and to tell the Chinese story well, poets need to use poetry images to show the great practice of this era. Precision poverty alleviation, green water and green mountains, high-speed rail, manned spaceflight, quantum technology, cloud computing, the Belt and Road Initiative, rural revitalization, new industry, big data, artificial intelligence and marine power, etc., are all rich fertile soil for poetry and the treasure house of poetry creation.

The new journey of the new era is the historical orientation of contemporary poetry, calling for the creation of theme poetry with depth, breadth and height. The emergence of theme poetry creation is an artistic impulse and creative desire that responds to the spirit of new ideas, spontaneously and consciously, and is also closely related to the great historical practice and realistic process of the new journey in the new era. The creation of theme poetry is a kind of correction and integration of the fragmentation and over-personalization of the world after the deconstructivist trend, and it is a kind of overall effort to reconstruct or construct a new integral world.

Poetry in the new era came into being, and the necessary and sufficient conditions are already in place. First of all, with the guidance of new ideas, Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era is constantly enriching and developing with practice, and is the action guide for the whole party and the people of the whole country to strive for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation; at the same time, the great practice and realistic process of socialism with Chinese characteristics are constantly producing new content, themes and creative resources; then, new aesthetic methods are about to come out, and after the integration of new thinking, new forms and new media, new aesthetic crystallization will inevitably be produced. Poetry is an art, the emergence of new images and new people, after the violent crustal movement of the times, producing the epics of the times and the exemplary works of the poetry of the new era that match the great practice, with peaks rising and peaks standing together. In contrast to the deconstructivist trend, this is an era of constructivism, a comprehensive construction of ideas, contents, and forms. This is also an era of cultural self-confidence and cultural self-consciousness, from self-ugliness to self-improvement, from self-denial to self-affirmation, from self-depreciation to self-confidence and self-improvement, the Chinese nation has awakened and will surely move towards the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

General Secretary Xi Jinping said with deep affection: "Contemporary China, the country and mountains are magnificent, the people are heroic, and the future is great", which is a magnificent and magnificent picture of the poetry of the new era, we should grasp the historical initiative, plunge into the trend of the times, go deep among the people, and strive to promote the creation of theme poetry.

"Poetry Journal" will increase its efforts to promote the creation of theme poems in the new era, and at the same time launch excellent theme poems in the "Poetry Journal" to open a special column to launch excellent theme poems, it will also launch excellent theme poems. In this regard, we have accumulated some experience, we launched the "Hualuping Handbook", "Ningde Poems" and other excellent theme poems in the previous paragraph, and then edited and published "Initial Heart, Red Flag and New Journey - Selected Excellent Works of Poetry in the New Era", which has attracted wide attention as soon as it was published, sold out in a short time, and is now ready to expand and republish. We will focus on the large-scale theme poetry creation project "New Era Poetry Library", which is currently included in the plan, including Liu Xiaowei's "Bronze years", Shen Wei's "Poetry Jiangnan", Wang Ziliang's "Biography of the Yangtze River", Da Xie's "Landscape Fu", Hu Xian's "Canal", Ah Xin's "Natural Imagery", Long Xiaolong's "New Industrial Narrative", Wang Erdong's "Express China" and so on. Poets are devoting themselves to the times, taking root in the people, working hard to create, and I believe that they will launch high-quality masterpieces.

The creation of theme poetry is becoming a trend. The integration of the small self and the big self, the combination of personal unique life experience with the universality of the times and the publicity of society, will be a direction of poetry in the new era, and will also produce a strong appeal and impact. This will transcend the over-personalization, fragmentation, and nihilism of the new period's poetry. Poetry in the new era will actively participate in creating the active spiritual force, truly showing the magnificent style and open and magnificent atmosphere of the new journey of the new era.

The Poetry Journal will also increase its efforts to promote the creation of ecological poetry, which is ecological writing under the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Ecological Civilization, which can also be called natural writing. Under the influence of the current epidemic, new ecological civilization ideas are taking shape, and human beings are refocusing on nature and the relationship between man and nature. The sense of human and natural community of life is getting stronger and stronger. The scope of ecological literature in the new era is becoming more and more extensive, not only the writing of natural ecological protection, but also the creation of a new world view and a new cosmology. Therefore, contemporary writer Liu Cixin's "Three-Body Problem", like Qu Yuan's "Heavenly Question", Zhang Ruoxuan's "Spring River Flower Moon Night", and Guo Moruo's "Goddess", is the embodiment of a new world outlook and a new cosmology when a new era arrives, and is a new understanding of nature, the world, and the universe. Ecological poetry contains the characteristics of the fusion of individuality and publicity. New Age poetry should not only emphasize the individual self, but should contain infinite distances, countless people, looking at the world, to human beings, to be able to be heard and understood by others. Literature in the new era is gradually unfolding, and the literature of the new era contains the characteristics of individual subjectivity, people subjectivity, national subjectivity and world feelings, and will actively create active spiritual forces, which may produce exemplary characteristics with universal significance of common values in the world.
