Lecture Notes on Poetry

About This Novel

"Poetic Theory" was originally called "General Theory of Poetics" and was first completed at the end of 1932. When he applied for a job in the Department of Foreign Languages ​​and Literature at Peking University in 1933, Zhu Guangqian submitted "On Poetry" to Hu Shi. Hu Shi was so impressed that he not only hired Mr. Zhu as a professor in the English Department, but also invited him to lecture on "On Poetry" in the Chinese Department for a year. What Professor Shang Jinlin of the Department of Chinese Language and Literature of Peking University discovered this time was Mr. Zhu's course lecture notes at Peking University. It was a mimeographed 16-format volume with the title "On Poetry published as a modern appendix on July 5th" on the cover. The main text was titled "General Theory of Poetics". On the side of each page was printed the words "Peking University Lecture Notes July 4th G Publishing Group Printed by Li School (or Zhao School, Song School)". The text consists of seven chapters and about 100,000 words. "On Poetry" is Mr. Zhu's masterpiece, which can be said to have been written for a lifetime. This handout not only has theoretical and aesthetic value for readers, but as an early version of "On Poetry", it is also an important document and has important historical significance for examining the development of Mr. Zhu's poetic theory and academic path. Those who study literature (poetry) and aesthetics can compare it with later versions and see the changes in Mr. Zhu's poetic concepts, the expansion of his academic vision, and the refinement of his language. The editor has organized and revised the entire manuscript, and written a detailed postscript introducing the evolution of each version of "Poetry" and Mr. Zhu's lifelong pursuit of "poetics" research, which can be referenced by researchers and literature lovers.
