1980s: Six Novels

About This Novel

Through literature, the social transition and ideological landscape of the 1980s are redrawn, and the term "two 1980s" is put forward: the first 1980s revolved around concepts such as reform, enlightenment, and modernization in the social field, starting from "scar literature" and opening up many writing fields. Literature still has full social and political functions and historical missions with realist techniques. The second 1980s originated from the reflection and questioning of the first 1980s. The main themes of reform and modernization brought not only vitality but also problems and crises. While individual consciousness and inner self became increasingly prominent, culture and civilization issues also became the core ideological issues after the mid-1980s; modernism quietly rose, and the concept of "pure literature" was born, and its influence continues to this day. At the end of the 1980s, new realistic novels and Wang Shuo's works appeared in turn, turning the Chinese people's yearning for a better future in the early 1980s into a mediocre daily life. They used literature to dissolve the ideals and values ​​of a great era, thereby ending the 1980s and beginning the 1990s. This is an ideological text produced by the author combining the study of literary history with social history and intellectual history. The author believes that the 1980s cannot be a memorial to the people of the 1980s, but should become a library of history for us to read again and again.
