※ 引述《littlebinroy (Ulysses)》之铭言:
: 想请问版上先进关於电影Sylvia中,诗人们聚会时以极快的
: 速度念诗有何特殊传统或只是那一群诗人的游戏/练习呢?
: 以这样子的方式来念(似乎都是自己的)诗有什麽意义吗?
: 或者那纯粹是一种比赛(for fun)呢?
: 有其他诗人也这样做吗?
: I wonder if this kind of "game" helps for creating poetry...
: Thanks.
: ps. This questions lingers on my mind for quite a while, I am afraid
: it's a stupid question to ask...^^;
It is not a stupid question. :)
The lines of poetry recited weren't Plath. They were Shakespeare.
I personally find it incredible (and difficult) for any poet to recite
his own verses at such speed, unless he is conceited enough to make a
serious effort. I can recite a few Shakespeares and Eliots, but none
of my own.
The scene was trying to depict the competitiveness (and perhaps
elitism?) among Cambridge students, which would ultimately affect
Plath's relation with Hughes: as wife and husband, as woman and man,
as American and English, and of course, as fellow poets.
I suppose those recitals did have positive effects on their poetry
writing. After all -- those who write, read. But I, too, suspect
that they served primarily as entertainment and competition, not
self-improvement.
