A Study on the Style of Wang Meng's Novels (updated Edition)
by Guo Baoliang
About This Novel
The book was published by Peking University Press in 2006 and included in the "Literature and Cultural Studies Series" edited by Tong Qingbing. As an important contemporary Chinese writer, Wang Meng has made great achievements in stylistic innovation. From his early stream-of-consciousness attempts to his recent attempts at poetry, philosophy, and prose in his novels, they all reflect a creator's creative mentality of seeking innovation and change, as well as his free and open creative concept. Based on a thorough reading of all Wang Meng's novels, this book accurately captures the changes and invariants in Wang Meng's novel creation, and summarizes the stylistic characteristics of Wang Meng's novels. By exploring the language, narrative personality, stylistic context, and the writer's cultural mentality, the book touches the inherent cultural spirit of the novel text, explores the writer's narrative personality, cultural orientation, and understanding of life and reality, reveals the academic implications and social and cultural context of the novel, and strives to present the significance and limitations of the stylistic innovation of Wang Meng's novels. After the first edition of the book, it was well received by the academic community and has been published in traditional Chinese. In this reprint, the author has revised the previous statement and added the research results of tracking Wang Meng in the past fifteen years.
