This paper analyzes and summarizes the background that generated the Qing northeast exile poetry, exiles’culture, poetry creation of exiles and psychological status of exiles, and focuses on the study of the materials, spiritual essence and artistic expression of the Qing northeast exiles’native place poetry through specific verses. In this way, readers can experience the dense native place emotion in the poems, realize the unique charm and contributions of the northeast exile poetry and the importance and glorious achievements of the northeast exile poetry in China’s ancient literature history.The tough exile life gave the Qing northeast exiles a unique life experience. Coupled with the influence of the northeast border region’s natural and cultural environment, the bleak and stirring northeast exile poetry was generated. Northeast exile poetry represents the highest achievement of the literature in China’s northeast region. It is also a unique poetry phenomenon different from the dominant style in the literature field of the Qing Dynasty. The Qing northeast exile poetry included the northeast landscape and folk customs in its composing materials for the first time. Among the northeast exile poetry, the native place emotion poems account for the largest percentage and are a part of the highest art achievements. The poems of the kind record the miserable struggle of the men of letters exile due to sin and their tough experience of being unable to go back despite their longing for home as well as the hardships of the local people. Through that, the poems vehemently criticize the cruel rule of the Qing Dynasty and show deep sympathy for the people living in an abyss of suffering. There is an authentic description of the mutual sympathy among the exiled men of letters in the border region and the sincere friendship between the exiled men of letters and the local ethnic people. The native place emotion poems also describe the northeast landscape and the simple life and custom of the ethnic people in the border region, expressing the poets’passion for the motherland’s landscape as well as their longing for and eulogy of the simple life of the local people. The poems also record the major historical events that the people in the border region fought against the Russian invasion to sing praises of the bravery and awareness of guarding the territory and border areas of the local people by fighting against invasion. The Qing northeast exile poetry has greatly enriched the materials for poetry composing, containing more spiritual cognition.Apart from the general poetry expression methods, the northeast exiles’native place emotion poems are unique in their artistic expression. To put it specifically, the northeast exile poetry adopts realism, emotions expression through describing concrete objects and landscape, classic stories and so on to diversify its expression methods, making its emotions expression more complex and euphemistical and clarifying the poets’ambition. In terms of its language, some poems are plaintive and gloomy and some are bold and unconstrained, showing the tendency of popularization. This was the result of combining with the local language characteristics. In terms of forms, there are no limitations, with the mixed application of three-character, five-character, seven-character and nine-character poems. Therefore, the forms are flexible, featuring a mixed style to express the same theme. Poets usually expressed their internal emotions through poems, giving full expression to their complex feeling for the nation, themselves, relatives and their home.Though the golden period of China’s ancient poetry is in the flourishing Tang Dynasty, men of letters in the transitional warring period of the Ming and Qing Dynasties still created poems of great achievements in themes and art, under the double burdens of life and depression. This was not easy. Moreover, these poems boast the function of maintaining history and providing historical proofs. Therefore, we should give a fair and proper positioning and evaluation of the Qing northeast exile poetry. The composition of the poems of the kind is an unprecedented peak in the literature history of China’s northeast region, boasting unique literature value and vital cultural significance.
