In recent decades, poetry has died many deaths and is still considered moribund today. The strange thing, though, is that it remains alive and often revives in moments of political crisis. This, for instance, was true in 1919 in the Republic of China (1912−1949) as well as in 1979 in the People's Republic of China (1949−present). Both of these dates also have to do with an Indian poet, namely with Rabindranath Tagore (1861−1941), whose impact on Chinese literature is still measurable even after more than eighty years. The turning point in 1919 was for some type of bourgeois revolution and the watershed in 1979 represents a kind of socialist reform. Both dates are milestones in the history of modern China.

Shu Ting is one of the best-known female poets in contemporary China, a member of the group of poets whose work is known as Misty Poetry. This article is concerned with the feeling for nature in Shu Ting’s works; in analysing some of Shu Ting’s poems author finds the way of using words connected with nature, such as trees, animals, the sea, etc., and their poetic meaning in her artistic language. It is focused on the purpose of using attributes of nature in her poetry, whether they are used in a metaphoric sense or as symbols. Landscape and nature, although it is not her core theme, has its certain place in Shu Ting’s poetry. In describing nature she express her feelings, she often uses personification and allusions to compare the human beings to the trees and animals. At the beginning she found the way to say something in describing nature, what she could not say directly, which has turned to using metaphors connected to nature as an inseparable part of her poetic language. Sometimes the traces of traditional Chinese poetry on nature, which has a long tradition in China, not only in poetry, but also in painting, which in the ancient Chinese cultural world is often merged with poetry, can be found also in her works. In mentioning traditional Chinese landscape poetry, we can see in the poetry of Shu Ting that she has some common features with traditional Chinese poetry, whose seem to be more unconscious.

This study compares two poems with the same name, namely Bai Juyi’s and Luo Fu’s Song of everlasting regret, with an emphasis on the life and achievements of the fashionable poet Luo Fu, who was one of the main representatives of Modernism in Taiwan. The comparison takes into account the different historical and general context as well as the means of expression of the authors. It deals with the problem of reinterpretation of old texts and also examines to what degree they have become the inspiration for the contemporary writer, why the poet known for his modernist practices returns to the traditional Tang poems to what extent his poem is innovative as well as the way it handles the theme outlined in the original poem.

The purpose of this paper is to unscramble the Christian elements in Revelation by Mu Dan, a modern Chinese poet. Mu Dan borrowed them from the Holy Bible and Western modernist literature, which made his poetry unique. The books of Psalms Ecclesiastes and Job from the Holy Bible motivated him to use prayer as a literature form in Revelation. Mu Dan's religious poems have enriched our thinking about human civilization and the meaning of life. They also provide a special perspective to understand the modern Chinese intellectuals interested in Christian belief and the difficulties they have encountered.
