    Lu Xun’s 魯迅 Wild Grass (野草 Ye Cao, 1927) is the first important prosepoetry collection in modern Chinese literary history. While most scholarshipfocuses on its emotional atmosphere, complex images, and metaphors, thisarticle explores the issue of musicality as a fundamental poetic quality of WildGrass. Through a close reading of some of the poems from Wild Grass, thisarticle examines how Lu Xun employs the modern Chinese vernacular as a newliterary language, how various stylistic devices add levels of musicality, andhow the language of musicality, in turn, serves as a living, pulsating aestheticforce that enhances the poeticity and communicability of these texts.
