A Brief History of Modern Chinese Literature

Zhang Fugui Yang Dandan

117K0

Times are changing. The new era, new economic lifestyle, and new technical conditions have also prompted profound changes in the literary and artistic life of the people. When literature and art encounter new situations, what should we do? Some Western scholars have put forward the views of "the end of literature" and "the end of art". This "view of the end" actually reflects the changes in the three relationships between literature and art and aesthetics, the relationship between literature and art and the media as its carrier, and the relationship between literature and art and the concepts it reflects. Therefore, literature and art must adapt to new situations, and understanding literature and art also requires new knowledge. The necessity of letting the people master the knowledge about literature and art, and letting the people understand the new situation of contemporary literature and art, is becoming more and more urgent nowadays. Use easy-to-understand language to teach literary and artistic knowledge. It is actually not easy to turn the crystallization of experts' research results into the literary and artistic common sense of the people. It is very difficult to be light-weighted, popular but not superficial, cutting-edge but not impetuous, profound but not obscure. The principle of organizing the "Literary and Art General Books Series" is to ask everyone to write short books. The authors invited by the "Literature and Art General Series" are all famous scholars in related fields in academia. They are well-educated and have an in-depth understanding of the ins and outs of the subject. At the same time, they are academically able to both get in and get out. The purpose of the "Literary and Art General Books Series" is to build bridges from professional academics to the people in a language that the people can understand.

Aesthetic Modernity in Katherine Mansfield's Novels

Wang Suying

173K0

This book conducts a comprehensive investigation and analysis of the novels of Katherine Mansfield, a New Zealand-born British short story writer in the early 20th century, from the perspective of aesthetic modernity. The main contents include the aesthetic modernity of modernist literature, the relationship between Mansfield and modernist literature, the modernist style of Mansfield's novels, the modernist themes of Mansfield's novels and the modern aesthetic paradigm of Mansfield's novels. Through the investigation of the above issues, this book aims to illustrate that although Mansfield's novels are short stories, they embody a high degree of unity in form and theme, and have the characteristics of typical modernist literature. Formally, the unique modernist styles of Mansfield's novels such as structure, narrative, language, and discourse make them reflect the typical aesthetic paradigms of modernist literature such as irony, decadence, grotesqueness, and fear. Thematically, the expression of modern people's negative emotions such as trauma, depression, death, disillusionment, anxiety, and alienation, as well as the description of living conditions such as self-division, self-loss, and subjugation to things, make her novels implicitly negate and reflect on enlightenment modernity, highlighting the characteristics of aesthetic modernity.

"Using things" is a common artistic technique in Chinese classical poetry. The poet quotes "stories" from the past to create semantic analogies with the content described in the poem, euphemistically conveying his own aspirations, forming an elegant and implicit artistic charm.

In terms of content and theme, modern narrative poems not only focus on reflecting social people's livelihood and paying attention to major historical events, showing creative characteristics closely related to the situation of the times; they also focus on depicting the fate of individual lives, creating colorful characters, and showing a creative tendency that is life-oriented and civilian-oriented. It not only comprehensively reflects domestic social life, but also begins to open its eyes to the world and depicts what is experienced outside the region. In terms of poetic characteristics, Yuefu narrative poems mostly use objective scene narratives, focusing on the concern and description of social issues. Five-character narrative poems often use self-narrative or witness narratives with strong subjectivity and individuality, which can not only describe social issues, but also show personal life. The performance mode of the Seven-Character Song Line is somewhere between the two, and its performance function focuses on depicting various characters and telling legendary stories. Narrative poems mostly use combined narratives of scenes from different time and space, and their expressive functions are extremely wide and have the characteristics of series and scale.

The exploration of the nature of space runs throughout Calvino's novel creation. The writer tried to create different spatial forms at different times to convey his understanding of the world. Compared with other writers of his generation, he is not an experiencer of space, but a shaper of space and a reflector of the concept of space. This highly speculative exploration of space makes Calvino unique among many space writings. This book combines Calvino's eleven representative works from different periods into a whole. Taking spatial form and subject anxiety as the research goals, this book outlines the evolution of Calvino's spatial concepts and the growth process of subject thought contained in them.
