Enter Mr. Li Yanzhu’s study,Small space is surrounded by Shuxiang and ink fragrance: a dark red wooden desk、A working chair,A row of bookcases stick to the wall,Look at the desk。Open the bookcase,A variety of books in the field of literary research with a sense of age should be available。These books, old or new,Some are accidentally purchased by "shocking glimpse",Some are "treasures" after all exploring,But like a string of pearls,Concerning ideals and reality,Record the life he has gone through。

On the wall behind the desk,Two words hanging with hanging,The book "Jiang Qingyue Near the People", "Tide Lai Heaven and Earth"。This is a professor at Shandong Normal University、The famous landscape poet Mr. Kong Fu gave it to Li Yanzhu,Mr. Zhang Yinian's "self -improvement,Houde Load "is hanging on the wall on the left side of the desk,It was given by Mr. Zhang in 2000,Recorded a period of associated with Zhang Jianian when Li Yanzhu selected "Universe and Life" in 1999 ... A spring day afternoon,Our interview started in this quiet study。

  "I am a drop of water in the sea" 

Looking back on the years I have passed,Mr. Li Yanzhu said,"I'm glad I live in a great era of a sharp change"。1933,Li Yanzhu was born in a small mountain village in Laoshan District, Qingdao。This year,Mao Dun's "Zi Ye"、Basin's "Home"、Lao She's "Divorce" is published in succession,Also in this year,Cao Yu completed the drama "Thunderstorm"。That time,Li Yanzhu in the 襁褓 will produce inextricable contacts with these modern literary classics in the future,It's really a great fate。In the long time of more than 80 years,,It is through repeated research reading Chinese and foreign classic literary works,Let Li Yanzhu outline the inherent logic of the development of centuries of literary and artistic development。

Li Yanzhu's father is a primary school teacher in the village,Starting from the notes,My father teaches him literacy、Writing,Reading Classic。Young Chengting Training,The influence of classical culture of the deep Mu Jing Hua,It also laid the foundation for his future academic road。

Childhood of war,The whole society is in storms and rain、In the turbulent restless,Li Yanzhu's life is naturally clear。Recall that time,The elderly still remember it。"At that time, the family was very difficult。Mother takes her sister all day、My brother and I go up the mountain to pick up grass、Dig wild vegetables。About 1946-1947,For a period of time, inflation is very powerful。Remember my father's one month's salary,You can only buy a 15 -pound peanut cake。The whole family is more than ten days of peanut cake mixed with wild vegetables。”

What makes Li Yanzhu miss,In the case of extremely difficult life at that time,Parents still do everything possible for him to go to school。13 years old,Li Yanzhu admitted to the junior high school of Qingdao Teachers School。Graduated from junior high school in July 1950,Li Yanzhu also admitted bet365 best casino games to the post division of Qingdao Normal School with excellent results (because the teacher did not spend money at that time,Many people who apply for the exam,Take one of the 20 people in that year)。At the foot of Laoshan、The cradle of trained teachers on the banks of Licun River,Li Yanzhu has spent six years of beautiful youth years。

Autumn 1952,After graduating from Qingdao Normal School,Li Yanzhu stayed in school to be a young pioneer、Working of Youth League,At the same time, he also serves as the "former division" (also known as Jian Shi,Teachers of the "History of Social Development" class equivalent to junior high school。That time,New China, just born,full of vitality everywhere。What moves Li Yanzhu most is the seventh and third (former division) classmates of 1955 when graduation and distribution of classmates: school opening a graduate meeting in the auditorium,Li Yanzhu is the host of the meeting,School leaders have just finished the distribution plan issued by the Municipal Education Bureau,More than 400 graduates in the auditorium,Hoh Lala stand up and stand up,Shouting continuously:

Go to the most needed place for the motherland!

Stand up to choose the motherland!

Read Li Yanzhu's diary in the 1950s,Li Yanzhu himself also wrote the following poems based on "The Flame of Youth":

I am a drop of water in the sea,

I am a brick in construction;

Countless water droplets converge into the sea,

Countless brick tiles built the building.

...

The youthful vitality,reflected in the full vitality and vitality of the freshman China。

I have lived in the mountain nest since I was young、Drink Ganquan Water in Laoshan、Li Yanzhu, who grew up eating sweet potato,Nostalgic for seeing the sea、Towards the sea,Going to a larger world。July 1956,Li Yanzhu left his hometown,Entering the Department of Literature and Literature of Shandong Normal University,ushered in a major turning point on his life。Four years of university,Compared to the noise of the tide of the times,The travel of Shulin Yihai can make him peaceful。Four years of university,Li Yanzhu tried everything to read a book with a planned time。He set a "iron law" for himself: no matter how busy,You must read at least 100 pages of novels every day。Recalling the time of college study,Li Yanzhu opened the box,Talking about it: "Remember the years of college,I rarely sleep at one point late at night,Find a classroom with no one or fewer people every night、Read my book in the corner of the reading room。”

Four years of time,Suddenly passing。Li Yanzhu realized his own learning plan,When graduating from college,Literature and masterpieces of ancient and modern Chinese and abroad basically read。A masterpiece Chinese and foreign literary masterpieces are Li Yanzhu's indispensable red brick and green tile,This is a typical study of literature in the future、Ideal、category and other literary and artistic、Aesthetic Questions,I made a certain way of paving and preparing a certain history of literature。 

  Enter academic hall from a typical question of literature 

July 1961 to July 1964,It is the most cherished years in Li Yanzhu's life。That time,After graduating from college, stay in school to teach,The recommended test was officially admitted to the graduate student of the graduate class of the Department of Literature and Literature and Literature of Renmin University of China,"It is these three years,Make me a poor child from ‘mountain nest’,From Laoshan to Quancheng to Beijing,From the local area to the whole country,I saw the world,guided me to enter Chinese literature and art、Academic Hall of Aesthetic Research "。

If you want to sort out the development history of literary research after the founding of New China,"Cultural Research Class" of Renmin University of China is an important coordinate that cannot be ignored。Although the "Cultural Research Class" only opened three sessions,But it is in the history of contemporary literature、The meaning of literary theory and even the history of education cannot be ignored。Li Yanzhu Memories,The famous poet and literary theorist Mr. He Qifang served as the class teacher of the "Cultural Research Class"。Zong Baihua、Cai Yi、Miao Langshan、He Qifang、Yu Guanying、Tour Guonn、Feng Zhi、Wu group ... Teachers all chose for a while,Someone uses "very luxurious、Unprecedented after "to describe the bet365 best casino games teacher lineup of the" Cultural Research Class ","Literary Research Class" is also regarded as the "Huangpu Military Academy" in the theoretical world。It is in the daily influence of the spring wind and rain,The academic style and personality charm of seniors have a profound impact on Li Yanzhu。

Remember to get along with everyone、Three years of learning,Li Yanzhu feels deeply: "These everyone's academic style、Academic methods and academic attitude,Their creative personality and academic insights of their Zhuoier,greatly broaden my vision,Open my long -closed ideological gate,Let me gradually understand what should I learn、How to learn,What kind of academic exploration and research should be taken。”

Mr. Li Yanzhu some writers/supplies 

If Li Yanzhu's main reading during college is Chinese and foreign famous works,Three Years of "Cultural Research Class",Li Yanzhu began to read widely read literary theory,Really entered the field of literary theory research。During three years,Li Yanzhu system reads Chinese and foreign history、History of Chinese and foreign philosophy、History of aesthetics、History of Literature and Art Theory、The main classic text in the history of literary criticism and the representative works of the classic Marxist writers。

Lin Daiyu、Wang Xifeng、Prometheus、Church · Quickhter、Hamlet ... Whenever we open the history of world literature,When reading one page and one page, when you read a meditation,Classic characters in outstanding works of different ethnic groups in different times,Immediately show a gorgeous gorgeous position in front of you、Live -like character galleries。Li Yanzhu said,From the beginning of contact with literary works,There is a living character image,Always attracting him、Stimulate him,Their sound and laughter、Speaking is deeply printed in your mind。

Typical Questions,Because the characteristics and laws of social life are directly related to literary and artistic reflection and expressions,Therefore, it has always been by domestic and foreign aestheticians、Emphasized by literary theorists。Sort the 20th century literary theory、Hot issues of aesthetic attention,We can know,During the 10 years from 1956-1965,Aesthetic and literary and artistic circles have carried out many discussions on typical issues。

It is in the extensive reading and keen grasp of the forefront of literary theory,Li Yanzhu started thinking: What is the relationship between literary creation and typical characters,What is the significance of creating typical characters for literary creation。"Literary Research Class" in the last year is writing a graduation thesis。The topic selected by Li Yanzhu is "Typical Issues in Learning Marx and Engels Thesis"。Instructor was Mr. Cai Yi, then the Institute of Literature of the Chinese Academy of Sciences at that time。Recalling Cai Yi's guidance to himself,Li Yanzhu said: "Cai Yi emphasizes the study of typical problems,Analysis of history,There must be strict logical demonstrations,The research of history and logic should be unified,Combining theoretical research with creative practice。”

Under the teachings and influence of Mr. Cai Yi,Li Yanzhu has been seizing the typical problem without putting it。"I'm digging for myself,until the water is made。"Li Yanzhu said,When he starts to choose an academic research object,Start from a point,that is, the most successful character written from narrative literature, is the typical character。Typical literature has become the focus point of his attention after he entered the academic hall。"Starting from a little bit,Then from point to face、From individual to general,This is the most basic research path and method I adopted。”

Starting the graduation thesis of typical issues under the guidance of Mr. Cai Yi in 1964,Li Yanzhu successively published "Try the" one "in Hegel -Learn the typical problems of Marx and Engels' thesis", "Typical Personality" This "," Observing Personality Research Personality portrayed personality -literary typical issues "Think of" "Marx Theory of Literature -Commemorates the Centennial Anniversary of Marx's Life", "The Immortal and Typical Experts of Ah Q image" and so on,"It is clearly proposed that literary and artistic should create a typical character with distinctive personality,This not only played a positive role in the literary creation Bet365 app download of the new era、It also opened up a new path for the research of Marx's literary theory on typical issues "。

Since then,Li Yanzhu is in the "Overview of Marxism Typical Doctrine",Sorting the development of Marx's previous typical doctrine in Europe,Marxist typical theory of typical doctrine、Development and evolution,Summarize the basic point of view of Marx Engels on typical problems of literature。This is also the first academic monograph on the typical category of Marxist literature,After revision、Supplement and renamed "History of Typical theory of Marxism",and designated as a national graduate textbook。

The academic contribution of "Overview of Marxism Typical Theory",Professor Jiang Kongyang of Fudan University has commented: "In the past, talk about typicals,Generally speaking from the commonality and personality of philosophy,and rarely talk about from history ... This book fills this blank。​​It not only made philosophical theoretical discussions on typical issues,and the development of typical theory,Make a historical description ",So "the study of typical theory also incorporates the category of history"。

In the eyes of Mr. Tong Qingbing, a professor at Beijing Normal University,"Historical Logic" is also a main line that runs through the typical research of Li Yanzhu。March 30, 2003,At the academic seminar of Li Yanzhu's "Road and Lantern -Light Lights -Literary Construction Issues" held in Beijing,Mr. Tong Qingbing said,"The typical study of Li Yanzhu,Not only a logical summary,More importantly, his research has ‘historical specificity’,means,He does not study the typical problems from the development of history,Just the opposite,He puts typical problems back to different historical periods、Grasp in different cultural backgrounds,This way we see a very specific and profound typical study of the logic of history "。 

  From literature ideal to the category of literature 

Li Yanzhu's academic process,Start from the typical problem of literature,Gradually expand to literary creation、Literary criticism、The history of literature is from the history of philosophy、History of human thought、Learning and thinking of the history of human civilization; then from literature typical to literary ideals,Research on the scope of literary activities and literary and artistic categories。

According to Li Yanzhu's own summary,The top 30 years of his academic career and the main energy of the first 30 years of his academic career are used in the six words "typical -ideal -category"。In fact,From the end of the 1970s, we started to study typical problems in literature,There have been two words shining in front of his eyes,This is "ideal"。

Li Yanzhu said,In Chinese and foreign aesthetics、Literature and Art Theory can often find discussions about "ideal",Especially in the historical literature of classical aesthetics in Germany,"Ideal" has almost become a core category of no one。Some scholars even equate the model with ideals。Is typical "ideal"? Literature ideal and social ideals、What are the differences and differences in life ideals? What are the connotations and characteristics of literary ideals in different historical periods of Chinese and foreign?,Li Yanzhu is also thinking about these problems。The 1990s,He started systematically on the practice of literary activity in combination with literary activity practice,Published a series of papers such as "The Light of Art: The Light of Art", "On the" ideal "status in German classical aesthetics,and published the monograph "Literature Ideal Theory"。

From Li Yanzhu's view,Literary ideals and literature typical,It is two different literary theory categories。Literary typical mainly focuses on the character image of the literary works,Literary ideal is part of the ideal system unique to humans,Literary ideals run through the different development stages of literary activities,It is reflected in the various elements that constitute literary activities and their interrelationships,It is the soul and power of literary activities,It is a writer、The artist keeps pursuing、Keep exploring、The total light source of continuously climbing the peak of art。Li Yanzhu proposed "No ideal,There is no real artistic beauty "view,Think that "ideal is the banner of the times,The motivation for forward,Guide to Construction。Bet365 lotto review A nation without ideals,is a nation without hope; an artist who has no ideal,Is a mouse inch -like artist who knows only crawling,He will never climb on the peak of art ",He will never climb on the peak of art "。

Since then,Li Yanzhu uses the scope of literary and artistic categories as the focus of academic research and main attack direction。Value of Studies in Category,Qian Chinese Affiliate in a letter to Li Yanzhu on March 6, 1995: "I first think that choosing a topic is good,Today is a voice of deconstruction among Western culture and art,Reverse thought tide is raging。We are rationalists ... human beings cannot have no spiritual homeland,We still have to look for、Explore,Studies can also be said to be an exploration。”

In continuous exploration research,Li Yanzhu's category system of Mao Zedong's artistic thought、The various literary and artistic categories proposed by classic Marxist writers made comprehensive sorting and summarization,He has published works such as "Introduction to Mao Zedong Literature and Arts", "Theory of Literature and Art" and "Development and Communication of Marxism and Literary Thought"。In these works,Li Yanzhu comprehensively organized the classic text of Marxist literary theorists involved and mentioned in the literary and artistic category,and from the methodology category、The category of ontology has made specific interpretations,Then some scholars believed that "Marx and Engels' literary theory has no system,Mao Zedong's literary thoughts can not be a system "。

Hu Jingzhi, Honorary Professor, Honorary Professor of Shenzhen University in the preface of the theory of literary and artistic categories,This book "specifically expands these different levels of interpretation、Research,Makes us not only have a comprehensive grasp of many areas of Marxist literary and artistic,And has a more specific understanding of the grand system of Marxist literary and artistic。This contemporary Marxist literary and artistic for construction and development of Chinese characteristics,Must be a promotion "。

In the book "Introduction to Mao Zedong Literature and Arts",Li Yanzhu regards "for the people" as the logic center and the most basic starting point of Mao Zedong's literary and artistic system,Derivative and flow from this center、Popularization and improvement of ten pairs。For this,Tong Qingbing believes in the book review published by Guangming Daily,"These ten pairs、The summary of concepts and in -depth interpretations of concepts,The systemicity of Mao Zedong's literary thought、Completeness and systemability completely emerge ... with the people -oriented、From the starting point,This is the fundamental characteristic of Mao Zedong's literary thoughts that distinguish between Chinese history "。

Whether the scope of ancient Chinese literary theory and the scope of Western literary theory can be converted or integrated into the discourse system of modern Chinese literary theory,It is a question that the academic community has been concerned over the years。Li Yanzhu inspected Mr. Zong Baihua from the perspective of the case analysis.、Poetry Theory、Modern conversion practice of artistic theory,It is believed that in the 20th century literary academic history of China,Mr. Zong Baihua solved this problem better。In "Art of Life、Art Life "",Li Yanzhu proposed,Zong Baihua starts from the actual experience of modern literature creation,The concept category of vitality of Chinese and foreign literary theory has been absorbed,The new system of life aesthetics is initially constructed,For ancient Chinese literary theory、The modern conversion of poetry theory provides the theoretical value and practical significance that can be used for reference。The relationship between how to deal with Chinese and foreign literary theory,Li Yanzhu's key case analyzes the relationship between Hegel's "Aesthetics" and Chinese literary and artistic construction,Comprehensively analyzed the positive impact and negative effects of Hegel's "Aesthetics" in China,It is clearly clarified that the construction of Chinese literature theory should be rooted in the practical activities of Chinese literature and art,Summary experience of world literary and artistic practice,Fusion of Chinese and Western,Create a new theory and principles of methodology。 

  Analysis of the development of literary aesthetics in the new era 

Looking at Li Yanzhu's academic career,The mentality of open learning forever,Keep academic vitality that keeps pace with the times,It can be said that it is his important "label",This is not only reflected in the old man nearly 90 years old, he will write with a computer,Will use WeChat and family、Friend contact,It is also reflected in his literature and art、Thinking and grasp of the frontier of aesthetics。

Just as Li Yanzhu said,"Research Literature and Art、aesthetics,Just read it、Read the history of Chinese and foreign literary theory、Art History、The classic text of the history of philosophy is not enough,It must also face reality,Practice for social practice and literary and artistic creation,To study and answer the new questions raised in contemporary practice "。

Enter the early 21st century,Social Revolution that appeared in the era of sharp change、Science and Technology Revolution、Media Revolution、Green Revolution Give Literature、Aesthetic research proposed new questions。Different in the moon in the sun、Gao Gao's advanced cultural boom,"The End of the Era of Literature" The assertion is very loud and up for a while。2000,American writer J. Hillis Miller,Published an article in literary journals,Dedicated discussions on Drida announced his so -called "literary end conclusions": "The new telecommunications era is leading to the end of the prerequisite and symbiosis of literary existence (Concomitants)。”

Intercourse Literature、Is the era of literary theory really "ended"? Chinese Literature and Art、Where will the aesthetics go? Where is the road?、The reality faced by aesthetics? Question,Almost day and night lingering in Li Yanzhu's mind。He is deeply feeling that these fundamental problems of literary and artistic construction,Do some systematic combing、Reflection and research。

In the first ten years of the 21st century,Li Yanzhu's theme of "Chinese Literature and Art in the Information Age",Continuously published "Leading Diverse Comprehensive Innovation -the Basic Trend of the Development of Chinese Culture", "Multiple Symbiosis and Different -the Treatment of Literature and Art Theory in the New Century" The ghost of the times -and discussing with J. Hillis Miller "," Construction of the Media Revolution and Literature Production Chain "and so on,Pay attention to theoretical criticism and answer the "historical end conclusions" advocated by some Western scholars,Then contact the actual development of Chinese and foreign literary and art development,Specifically explained the literary and artistic caused by the information era、Paradm Revolution of Aesthetics,clearly discuss Chinese literature and art、The development trend and direction of aesthetics in the 21st century,Blood proposing the basic trend and direction of the development of Chinese literature and art is "multiple symbiosis,Different and different "and" dominate multiple,Comprehensive Innovation "。

In the face of "modern conversion of ancient literary theory" and "literary theory of disorder" dilemma,The road to the construction of literary and artistic construction with Chinese characteristics must be explored。This needs to penetrate the fog influenced by Western literary theory,Looking back on your own literary theory tradition。Li Yanzhu kept reminding people,To cherish the traditional Chinese literary theory tradition、Chinese modern literary theory tradition formed since May 4th、Marxist literature tradition with Chinese characteristics,Especially in the modern conversion of ancient literary theory,Li Yanzhu discovered,Several of Chinese modern literary theory have made some demonstration for us。For example,Mr. Zhu Guangqian's "Moving Flowers and Wood" theory,Mr. Zong Baihua's "East and West"、"Integration" theory,Mr. Qian Yanshu's "opening" theory and "cycle of interpretation" theory,It is designed to explore the road to construction of Chinese literature and art。

For the future development prospects of literary theory,Li Yanzhu is full of confidence。He said,We are in a sharp change era,Diverse symbiosis in literary theory、and different from "dominate multiple,Comprehensive Innovation "overall pattern and development trend,It indicates that in the process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,Literary theory will have bet365 best casino games new breakthroughs and development。 

  Conclusion 

Slender body,Neat white hair,Slow steps,Face always has a smile that makes people like a spring breeze,This is the unanimous impression of Li Yanzhu in the memory of the teacher and friends。Although it has been retired for many years,Remove eating every day、Time to rest and exercise,Li Yanzhu will still take a few hours to read in the study、Seeing newspaper、Writing,In his words, it is "retreat"。

If the academic research features of Li Yanzhu are summarized,Persist in using Marxist literary theory as the cornerstone,It is undoubtedly the most important background。From the perspective of Zhang Jiong, member of the Honorary Department of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences,Li Yanzhu attaches great importance to the principles of Marxism's theory and practice closely,Pay attention to Marxism literary theory must continue to keep pace with the times with the development of the times。"To realize yourself in practice、Knowing yourself,Look at the world with your own eyes,Think and answer various questions in life and society with your own mind,Then position it for yourself,Form the road you should take。"This is Li Yanzhu's decades of literary and artistic、Summary of Aesthetic Research,It is also a warning to young scholars。

Under the teachings of the predecessors and the influence of classical culture,Li Yanzhu consciously took Zong Baihua、Cai Yi and other seniors 'scholars' salary fire work hard,It has already become the "veteran" of literary theory research,Now,He also hopes to hand over the "key" to literature and art、Young people in the field of aesthetics,Academic generation has later people,Talent can be able to increase the event when you go out,Non -salary Fire follow -up。
