The Adoption and Dissemination of the “Popular Form” of Chinese Left-wing New Poems in the 1930s

The Chinese Poetry Society established in 1932, as a mass new poetry group under the leadership of the “Left Federation”, was founded a series of poetry publications represented by “New Poetry”, and undertook the creation and dissemination of proletarian poetry in the 1930s Important task. The left-wing poetry of this period showed a distinct tendency to “popularize” creation and characteristics of the times, calling for the use of “popularized form” to create poetry, pursuing the colloquial and reciprocal language of poetry, to enhance the infection of proletarian poetry among the people power and communication power. The left-wing poets of this period drew poetry resources from the “old forms” such as ballads to build a new form of “popularization” that was adapted to the needs of the times. The “popular chorus”, as a representative of the “popular form”, shows a strong “dramatic” feature, and also reflects a certain degree of interpenetration of styles. The left-wing new poems in the 1930s not only got rid of the predicament of “national language poetry”, which had solid theories and poor works but also realized the popularization of proletarian poems and even new poems.
