I don’t know if it is out of nature or something else,I have particularly liked to read novels since I was a teenager。Graduated from elementary school just goes to junior high school,School Library Collection Limited,I often rent a local lease on the old book stall。At that time, there was no electric light at home,Oil lamps in the evening for a long time,Mother does not agree,So I simply merit in the quilt and hold the flashlight,Continue to get intoxicated in novel reading。Of course,Occasionally discovered by my mother,The book is also confiscated。

This obsessed reading unknowingly cultivated my literary sentiment,Let me have been praised by the teacher in the middle school stage.。But really engaged in literary research and literary criticism of this profession,You need to encounter opportunities and with personal attachment。

1956,I have been admitted to the Chinese Department of Wuhan University as expected,Start accepting the nourishment of various knowledge in the hall of literature,Course of Chinese and foreign literature、Cultural and Historical Knowledge and Philosophy Theory,It seems to be gradually opening the window of my soul,Let me know how to be a qualified literary worker should have many aspects。At the fourth grade of college,School arrangement to write textbooks with students as the main body,My grade is allocated and compiled by the history of modern Chinese literature。So call for response,Students of our batch have not yet taken the history of modern literature,I do n’t know how to undertake this task,Probably "a piece of white paper" can write "new chapter"。

At that time,I was assigned to write bajin、Cao Yu and other writers a chapter。One day I completed the first draft for the first draft,Mr. Liu Yisong of the Modern Literature Teaching and Research Room suddenly came to our dormitory。When this famous national literary historian slowly sat down in front of my simple desk,I am waiting for "Trial"。I didn't expect,Mr. Liu fully affirmed the manuscript I wrote,I believe that my analysis and evaluation of these bet365 live casino games writers is objective、Reasonable。Enforcement of Mr. Liu,Starting to make me realize literary research、Literary criticism is valuable,It is because there must be a rational scale,Singing with the wind,Singing with the wind,The text written can only be over -the -eye smoke cloud。Maybe Mr. Liu Yisong and the teachers of the modern literature teaching and research room are followed me in this textbook writing work,So when I graduated a year later,It actually made me get the only one in the modern literature and teaching and research room for teaching positions。Of course, this is also my wish。

But,When I unconsciously wrapped in a powerful trend,My rational spirit is still fragile。1964,I was recruited to the writing group of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee。When I was assigned to criticize a historical novel,My reason seems to be "annihilated" by the hustle and bustle trend。This still makes me ashamed to be ashamed。Lost rational writing of seeking truth from facts,The so -called "results" can only be like waste paper。

This twists and turns also prompted me to recognize,In Literature Research、The relief spirit in literary criticism should not be an abstract concept,but with its substantial connotation,That is: the attitude of truth,Wide vision,Accurate Story。This is also a character that literary critics should have。

 Summon in spring

When our social life has experienced turbulence and stepped on the right track,Each of us has also gained a new opportunity for each of our academic growth。1979,I am fortunate to be the youngest representative of Hubei Province,attended the Fourth National Congress of the Chinese Literature and Art Circle Federation,I personally experienced the moving scene of the re -assembly of the literary team,Deng Xiaoping's excited speech on behalf of the Party Central Committee and the State Council,More inspiring me in the spring of literature and art,Seriously responsible for a literary and artist's responsibility。

The intersection of the 1970s and 1980s,I participated in the work of commissioning the Ministry of Education to compile the work of Chinese contemporary literature compilation materials。This time,The ideological front of the ideological Bet365 lotto review front is booming,"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth" becomes a criterion for guiding our work。Although there were still some "ideological shackles" in the process of writing materials at that time,But after all, let us dare to overthrow the past about literary thoughts、Literary Criticism,and the wrong conclusion of many writers' works,and carefully make objective、Reasonable evaluation。It can be said,As the first formal published contemporary literature history textbook in my country,"First Draft for the History of Chinese Contemporary Literature" is the discipline construction of contemporary literature in Chinese colleges and universities,laid the original good foundation。

Enter the 1980s,Literary Spring is full of spring。Many literary activities have prompted me to pay more attention to the new appearance of literary creation。spring 1982,At the invitation of the Creative Research Department of the Chinese Writers Association,I was fortunate to participate in the first Mao Dun Literature Award for Reading Class,A few years in the future,Participate in this selection and some important creative seminars。These activities not only let my book nerd go out of the book,Get rid of some "Academy Qi",Gradually move towards the vast field of literary creation,It also prompts me to really sink into the field of literary creation, especially in the field of novel creation,Discussion on some issues that belong to "internal quality"。

I start thinking,The development dynamics of the novels of our novels from 1949 to 1979 and their inherent reasons; think about the relationship between some long novels "finalization" or "model" and writer thinking; Historical consciousness、Humanity Consciousness、The potential impact of tragedy consciousness ... I condensed these deep thinking into my book "Chinese Long Fiction Creation Theory",After the book is published, in the literary world、The response caused by the academic community is beyond my expectation。

Senior critic, Mr. Feng Mu, said in the preface to me: "This is a pioneering and constructive work",It provides us with a lot of people's thinking and helping people understand and judge some important bet365 Play online games phenomena of contemporary literature in our country and its internal laws、New assertion and ideological materials "。"Guangming Daily" and "Literature and Art" and other more than ten newspapers and periodicals in the country have also published Jieyu、Jiang Xiaotian、Ho Depei's comment article,They have given a high degree of evaluation of this work。I also received some writers' letters,Talking about the inspiration of their reading of this work。All this is like a hot waves that push me in literary research、On the way to literary criticism, move forward。

 Liability for rational

Since the 1990s,until entering the 21st century,I started to view literary phenomena with a wider field of vision in the field of literary research and literary criticism。

On the one hand, research on "Modern Evolution of the Nearly Hundred Years of Novels"。That is the perspective of trying to from the perspective of history,Perseverance through spiritual position、Cultural Vision、Artistic thinking and several key points to review the steps of Chinese novels from ancient times to modern times in the past century。I combine narrative and speculation,That is, during the narrative process,With problem consciousness,Elapse my opinions on some controversial issues in the academic community at that time。If there is a controversy about whether the novel of the late Qing Dynasty is "the beginning of modern literature",I consciously sort out the social trends and novel concepts in the late Qing Dynasty,and conduct a detailed analysis of the representative works,Specifically explained the novels of the late Qing Dynasty, whether it is the spiritual position of the writer or the use of artistic techniques,can only be a "transitional" phenomenon,It can’t be said to be a real "sign" at the beginning of the beginning of the new era of literature。

How to locate and evaluate the novel creation of the novels in the first seventeenth year after the founding of New China,I also thought carefully。As far as my knowledge,The creation of this period is undoubtedly inevitably affected by the social trend of the society at that time,But it is not useless as a certain period of literature for a certain period of time。I want Bet365 lotto review to jump out of the simplified conclusion,Give it another position。Through repeated reading and thinking,I put them in Chinese literature from ancient times from ancient times to the historic long river of modern transformation,Obviously feel the novel creation of this period,The spiritual characteristics and literary characteristics of traditional agricultural society with growth in farming culture soil: from adapting to nature、The artistic harmony formed by the destiny view of the "unity of heaven and man" and good at soothing the defects and emotional lack of emotions with a successful ideal; the dual opposition formed by the inherent concept of yin and yang poles of the universe world、Extremely artistic thinking mode; some used artistic ideas formed by the objective and absoluteness and dependence of the direct nature of things;。Literature in the 1950s and 1960s with this "classical" characteristics to varying degrees,But after all, the times are different,injected some new ideological quality for it,So I call the literature of this stage "the maturity of neoclassicism and the forgetting of modernity"。When I wrote it as an inscription and published it in 2002 in "Academic Research",It has been listed as "Modern China since this century、One of the 35 most influential papers in the field of modern literature review and research。

On the other hand,The eyes of my literary criticism began to pay attention to the new trends of the literary world and some issues that are looking forward to solving,and write a number of articles in succession。Where,"The meaning of the new period of literature -thinking about several issues of Chinese literature in the journey" is mainly to explain my issues such as "the diversified pattern of literature", "the fate of realism", "the establishment of literary value benchmarks" and other issues. know。From the perspective of historical development,It should be acknowledged that the diversified pattern of literature is the deserved meaning in the development of literature,From diversified to one yuan, you may make new points,Literary trend is to advance in this kind of division and integration。Chinese realist literature has a long tradition,In today's modernism、Post Bet365 app download -modernism of postmodernism,Realism cannot be eliminated,It will inevitably integrate new cultural resources to continue to show its strong vitality。On the issue of values,I think for the present,How to truly develop from human history,From the height of the era of the country and nation today,Thinking deeply about the ultimate significance of human existence and development,It should be the highest requirement of literary creation。After this article is published,Has been widely praised,And being included in the Institute of Literature of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the editorial committee of the "Chinese Literature Yearbook" editorial.。

Contact with these issues,I also wrote "The Spiritual Conversion of the Main Body -Investigating a Thinking of Literature in the New Period",In addition to the writer's getting rid of the traditional thinking of traditional thinking,Focus on thinking about the "cultural adequation" and "postmodern" spiritual phenomenon that appeared in the creation at the time。At that time, the "cultural conservation" attitude of some writers' works at that time was discussed as "conservative and backward"、Putting the "postmodern" emotions as "subverting modernity" blame,I discussed the causes of these two spiritual phenomena in detail,Explain the meaning of these two spiritual phenomena from the dynamic relationship between them and modernity。The article was published in "Literature Review",Translated into English in English (English version) (English version)。Probably because my rational analysis has reference value for readers at home and abroad。

Enter the 21st century,Looking back at the last ten years of the 20th century,My creation of the field of novels has a more sober understanding and rational thinking。Despite the surge in the number of creations,Many works under the domination of modern consciousness,Art innovation has also made great progress,Especially the sense of style creation awareness is unprecedented,The creation of the form of art space and the construction of the symbol body,These have brought new artistic features to the novels。but,Reading through a large number of novel works,Including the works Bet365 lotto review of some prestigious writers,I found that there are few new breakthroughs at the spiritual level、New Awakening,Can give people new incentives、New Awakening、The new forge -ization motivation is far from enough。Maybe this is an important reason for the long novel to lose the "sensational effect"。From this,I wrote an article on the basis of a speeches of an academic conference.。This article is reprinted by many publications such as "Xinhua Digest","Literature and Art" selected some of the contents of "What kind of novels will write in this era" as the title,I did not expect to win the first prize of the Second National Literary and Art Review Award of the China Federation of Literary and Art Federation。

The era is inspiring me,The literary world is constantly evoking my responsibility。The pursuit of truth is endless,Literary criticism should also be like this。
