Sample lesson "Một thời đại trong thi ca"


1. Summary

In the excerpt "Một thời đại trong thi ca", Hoai Thanh analyzes the differences between old and new poetry, focusing on the spirit of each era. He points out that old poetry represents the era of the “we” – emphasizing community, while new poetry is associated with the era of the “I” – celebrating the individual and the distinct self. When new poetry emerged, it brought with it new notions about individuality and the human soul, clearly expressed through the concerns, sadness, and loss of faith among the younger generation. However, from that sadness, they still place hope in the Vietnamese language and the national spirit.

2. Structure

The text is divided into 3 parts:

- Part 1 (from the beginning to "generally"): introduces the spirit of new poetry.

- Part 2 (continue to "individual concerns"): differentiates old poetry from new poetry; the dominant emotions of new poetry.

- Part 3 (the remainder): belief and hope in the development of new poetry.

3. Rhetorical Devices

- Comparison: Comparing old and new poetry through the two concepts “we” and “I”.

- Metaphor: The image of “a drop of water in the ocean” metaphorically represents an individual blending in the community during the era of old poetry.

- Enumeration: Listing new poets like The Lu, Luu Trong Lu, Han Mac Tu, Xuan Dieu to clarify the diversity of new poetry.

4. Analysis of the Work

1. According to Hoai Thanh, what is different between the “I” in new poetry and the “we” in old poetry?

The basic difference between the “I” in new poetry and the “we” in old poetry is that old literature often expresses the shared thoughts and emotions of a group, a class of people. The "I" if present was also hidden under the umbrella of the common “we”. In new poetry, the "I" stands alone. It boldly reveals the deepest secrets within its very essence.

2. According to the author, what is the difficulty in finding the spirit of new poetry? And how does the author propose to identify it?

- The difference between old and new poetry:

+ Old poetry: Represents the spirit of “we” – linked with community, family, and nation.

+ New poetry: Expresses the spirit of “I” – emphasizes individuality, personal sentiments, loneliness, and a longing for freedom.

From these outlined difficulties, the author has proposed the following ways to identify:

- "Alas, the common, the absurdity is not the sole property of any era, and to understand the spirit of poetry accurately, we must compare great works with great works."

"... to clearly see the uniqueness of each era, one must look generally."

3. What are the sentiments and tragedies of the generation of new poets?

- New poets express concerns, sadness, and a loss of faith in life.

- They cherish the Vietnamese language, instill emotions within it, and seek hope from the national spirit.
