美国二十世纪初期,在诗歌界兴起了轰轰烈烈的新诗运动,其中的主力军就是以庞德为首的意象派和以T.S艾略特为代表的象征主义诗歌,影响了美国以后的诗歌创作。但这些极具现代性的诗歌创作手法却来源于遥远而古老的东方,中国的古典诗歌为意象派所大力推崇。而在中国,几乎在处于同一时期的五四新文化运动中,中国新诗诞生了,它的产生和发展又是与当时西方诗歌在中国的译介与影响分不开的。二者在20世纪初期共同发展,共同繁荣,这不仅是中西文学交流史上的盛事,也是世界文学交流史中的奇葩。 In the early twentieth century, the United States launched a vigorous new poetry movement in poetry circles. The main force in the United States was the image school headed by Pound and the symbolism poetry represented by T.S Eliot, which influenced the poetry creation after the United States. However, these very modern poetry techniques come from the distant and ancient East. Chinese classical poetry is highly praised by the imagery. In China, almost at the same time during the May Fourth New Culture Movement, the emergence of new Chinese poetry was closely linked with the translation and influence of Western poetry in China at that time. The two developed together and prospered in the early 20th century. This is not only a grand event in the history of Chinese and Western literature exchanges, but also a wonderful work in the history of world literature exchanges.
