Abstract: In their retrospection of the two tendencies of excessive romantic emotions and reality-escaping symbolistic pure poems existing generally in the new poems of China in 1940’s, the Jiuye(nine-leaf) poetic group, willingly taking modernist poesy of the West for reference, brought forward the new comprehensive poetic conception of “reality, symbol and metaphysiscs”, which to a great extent promoted the modernized deepening and development of new poems. To put in order the foreign origin of the poesy thought of Yuan Kejia, the theoretical spokesman, makes it quick and easy to get the features into shape of the spread, acceptance and change of the idea of Western modernist poems in China.

Key words: Jiuye(nine-leaf) poetic group, Yuan Kejia, poesy thought, new criticism
