the chinese liked changing topics every few years or every dynasty. they went from realism, to nature, to magic type things, and then back to realism. as we look at the history of what the chinese wrote about we understand that thigs in the world change and not everthing is the same

Firstly, there are many factors of Chinese Poetry that are very intriguing. The writers of this genre of poetry always use very light and flowing language. The words blend together to create a gorgeous meldoy, that may not rhyme, but still is a great song. Also, there is an amazing use metaphors and similies to add a spice to the language.

While reading the poems yesterday Shelby and I learned that Chinese poetry is very short, but has a lot of meaning inside of them. My favorite poem was the Climbing You-Chou Terrace because it was vivid and I can really see it when i read it. Shelby learned that the guy who wrote the poem about drowning himself, he did it because he loved his country and he knew it was going down in flames.

Persoanlly, I learned that chinese poetry focuses lots on good charachter aspects it will say good things to do and how that makes a better person. If it doesn't focus on charachter aspects, it focuses on the importance of nature in chinese culture.
ReplyDeletemy cluster thinks that our favorite poem is the chinese new year because it has fireworks and dancing dragons. the imagerey that the poem makes is spectacular. it gives a clear image of what chinese new year looks like..... this is important because chinese new year is coming up................yep thats it..

Yesterday,I learned about the big impact that Chinese poetry had on many of the people in China. It was very interesting to learn how that single aspect of a country influenced so many people. My personal favorite poem was "Leaves of a Friend," because I could relate to it very well and its message was very inspiring.
Chinese poetry is truly a work of art. From the few poems that I read yesterday, I can tell that it takes a genious to write all of the amazing poems that they come up with. Their were many famous poets that were in the Tang genration. Some include: Du Fu, Li Bai, and Qu Yuan. Almost all of their poems were full of lots of imagery. I just think that chinese poems are amazing.

In most of the Chinese poems, there was a lot of descriptive words describing nature. The mood was usually sad or far away. I liked the way the poems were floating as if it was traveling on a cloud.

Chinese poetry was made many years before Confucius and was the first literature from China. Although it is confusing, it is relatable since most of the poems were about normal, everyday life. Our favorite poem was Taking Leave of a Friend because because it paints a picture with the emotions of bitter-sweetness of saying goodbye.
