新时期以来小说暴力叙事研究
Zhou Jianhua
Violence has never appeared as a negative image in the eyes of the public or readers. However, this situation has changed in the creation of novels since the late 1970s. This book uses time as the continuum, social history and cultural psychology as the dimension, novel creation as the entry point, and typical violent narrative texts and writers in typical novels as the basic object of interpretation. It tells readers how "violence" can take on the inherent image of the past and turn ugliness into beauty or beauty out of ugliness. Violence is not just an event, but also a method, a concept, and a value. From the "standard configuration" of supporting roles and negative images in novel creation in the past to the historical trajectory of the main body, neutrality and even being criticized in today's text expressions, this change has actually hinted at the development of contemporary social values and cultural psychology.
