Brief Introduction to Zhu Kuntian's Poetry

Zhu Kuntian's poetry has mainly drawn its material from his own life experience,which describes wretchedness,homesickness and poem lovers' friendship of the poor scholars; besides,he is good at using flowery language to describe things and skillful brush stroke to draw pictures. There is just a little reflection of social life in his poetry,but he has already done that more or less. What wins the special attention is that the elegant language he used is full of expressive force and deep impression of visuality. Generally,his poetry is the product of highly mature period in the development of Chinese classical poetry. In his poetry,the defamiliarization,abnormality and sense of alienation in the diction of figure of speech represent the language progress in the poetry of the Qing Dynasty.
