格律体新诗形式与内容的统一

Unity of Form and Content in Chinese New Metrical Poetry

格律体新诗虽然诞生已有近百年了,却依然难以登堂入室。主流诗界或嘲其形式主义,或讽其弃今复古,或讥其民歌打油,或鄙其诗意直白……格律体新诗要改变四面楚歌的局面,就再也不能单纯、片面地强调形式,其形式必须蕴含于深广的题材内容之中,形式的创造、把握必须与题材内容取得艺术上的高度统一,其形式美也才能进入佳境,而诗人们心灵的广度、密度、浓度、力度和高度,诗人的思想和意志,也才能够依附于形式美中,如冬日阳光般直达读者心灵。

Chinese new metrical poetry is still struggling to enter the literary canon though it is almost 100 years old. The mainstream poets laugh at its formalism, its simplicity, its return to old poetic forms, its resemblance to ballad or doggerel... In a word, Chinese new metrical poetry is attacked from all side that it should no longer purely and partially stress the form, which must rise out of theme and content. The creation and application of form must achieve artistic unity with them and content so that poetic form can find way to real beauty, that the scope, density, force and height of poetic soul, and the poet＇ s thoughts and will can reach readers＇ heart like sunshine in winter via formal beauty.
