Time background
As a famous poet in the May 4th Movement, Bing Xin's poems are associated with stars and springs. Star *** 164, spring water 182, mainly published in the morning post supplement 1922. Short poems have no separate titles, but are arranged according to serial numbers. 1923 two groups of poems have been collected and published by Commercial Press and Xinchao Society respectively. It caused a strong response at that time.
Bing Xin's novels and essays have won a wide range of readers and countless praises. It is noticed that this new literary genius has the talent of a poet. She decided to write her own poems because she was encouraged by Sun Fuyuan, a reporter from the Morning Post Supplement. He put Bing Xin's poetic miscellaneous feelings in the poem column, which greatly inspired Bing Xin. He decided to open the boundary between Chinese column and poetry column in his mind and become a poet who explores life in the form of poetry.
Bing Xin later recalled the scene when writing poems. At the height of her thirst for knowledge, she greedily reads all kinds of books and newspapers after class, and when she meets a favorite sentence, she copies it on her notebook's eyebrows in a few words. She used to be like this, sometimes writing down her miscellaneous feelings and memories anytime and anywhere. As time goes on, this figure is considerable. Although it is only three or five elements, there is always something related to personal experience behind these three or five elements. Seeing these words, I think of very kind and real scenes, and I can't bear to throw them away.
At this time, she happened to see Tagore's serial of Birds translated by Zheng Zhenduo in a magazine, which was full of poetic and philosophical words. Her heart moved and she felt that the words she had written on her notebook eyebrows could also be sorted out and copied. When copying, she chose those that were more poetic and implicit and put them together. Because they were all fragmentary ideas, she chose a paragraph that began with the word "star" and put it in the first book and named it "star".
At that time, many critics also thought that Bing Xin was influenced by Tagore. But perhaps more accurately, she discovered her own poems under the inspiration of Tagore, and the real source lies in her own "fragmentary thoughts".
Zheng Zhenduo's view is more comprehensive. He thinks that besides Tagore, Bing Xin is also influenced by quatrains and poems in classical poetry. When Bing Xin/Kloc-0 was 0/0 years old, she studied The Analects of Confucius and Tang poetry, read rhymes and learned couplets. After class, she made two four-character poems and stubbornly gave them to her husband. Her profound poetic skills are one of the reasons for her successful creation of short poems. In addition, the Japanese short song haiku translated by Zhou Zuoren is very popular and has a great influence on Bing Xin.
