The creative act of modern Chinese long poems has been in new shapes for the past few years. This thesis has attempted to explore the future possibilities of modern Chinese long poems from six aspects: the density of imagery, the pseudo and actual ways of the indication of reality, the chain of images, the overlap of genres, the speaker of a poem, and the interweaving of texts. Four poets who have offered some idiosyncratic ideas in their long poems since 1980 serve as the focus of the present discussion: Lo Fu, K'o-hua Ch'en, Cheng-chen Chien, and Y ao-te Lin. They have contributed significantly to four approaches to long poems. K'o-hua Ch'en combined the reality beyond time and space with the lyrical narration; Yao-te Lin used both the overlap of genres and the interweaving of different texts to further his narrative force; Lo Fu set, figuratively and symbolically, the images in the narrative chronological flow; and Cheng-chen Chien so juxtaposed the images and the moments as to make certain inter-leaps within multi-dimensional realities. |
