The End of the Country and the Phantom of the City: the Dislocation and Integration of Farmers and Cities in New Century Novels
About This Novel
After the beginning of the new century, the creation of rural novels has shown a significant change: there are fewer and fewer expressions of pastoral poetry, and more and more writings about rural suffering, especially the survival plight of migrant workers wandering between urban and rural areas, have become the focus of rural literature. Starting from this literary phenomenon, this book examines the collision and integration of rural and urban, tradition and modernity in the process of urbanization in China, clears up the confusing concepts of rural and modern in the creative world, and explores possible ways to construct a harmonious urban and rural culture. On the basis of summarizing the image of farmers in the era of urbanization, this book strives to reveal the formation process of China's complex urban-rural relations from a historical and cultural perspective, explore the deep complementarity and integration of urban and rural areas, tradition and modernity, and explore more reasonable ways to recognize, discover and experience traditional farming culture in the context of urbanization.
