About This Novel

This book takes Chinese novels from 1898 to 1927 as the main research object. It borrows Western narrative theory to explore how the writers of the late Qing Dynasty and the "May 4th" generation completed the transition from ancient novels to modern novels from two perspectives: the enlightenment of Western novels and the transformation of the narrative mode of Chinese novels, and the role of traditional literature in the transformation of the narrative mode of Chinese novels. The author draws on Todorov's narrative theory and "combines purely formal narratology research with sociological research on novels that pay attention to cultural background" from three aspects: narrative time, narrative perspective, and narrative structure. This not only fills the gap in stylistic research, but also advances the study of literary form and achieves epoch-making achievements.
