On the Key Elements of Constructing English and Chinese Poetry

Dong WANG

Abstract

As for the key elements that construct English and Chinese poetry, there arise many controversies. Just because of the lack of definite standards, in the creation of modern poetry, everyone acts as he pleases, which leads to readers’ getting farther and farther away from poetry. Either modern English poetry or modern Chinese poetry should possess extremely strong musicality and original and proper image, be inspired by inspiration, be able to communicate with readers and concentrate on the themes of truthfulness, benevolence and beauty, so that poetry, as a peculiar literary form, can reflect its own features and value.

Keywords
