Abstract: It is an extensive topic to discuss “academism”, which exists not only in the poetic circle, but also in the literary circle. In some sense, the creation and spreading of the modern knowledge and culture are supported and restricted by the academism system. Certainly, it is characterized with positive and negative factors. To get rid of the “academism” habit, the stereotyped methods are adoptedreading, seeing the world, reflecting, and debating, which not only widen the knowledge and make easy the quotation from “formal” and “informal” sources, but also make knowledge widened so as to combat conservation and sentiment of the profession.

Key words: contemporary poetry, academism, criticism, system
