War to the nation, the state has brought a great disaster, but also to the 20th-century Chinese literature writing brings inexhaustible resource. More than a century of years, Chinese literature has never stopped thinking of the history of this war, and writing, whether in war or in peacetime. Revolutionary War narrative, as the 20th century Chinese literature the most important part of not only demonstrated its unique literary vitality, but also to some extent become a barometer of change in Chinese literature. Revolutionary War narrative naturally led to the prosperity of the revolutionary war novel of the situation, but from the "post-revolution" of this particular cultural context for the system is not a lot. The so-called "post-revolutionary era," the history of the definition of "refers to the late 20th century, 70s, 80's and continues today in the historical stage." From the 90's, the society to a "farewell revolution," the voice of the revolutionary era of "class struggle", binary oppositions, life and death type of revolutionary struggle, and the political vision began to fade. With the growing market economy, "post-revolutionary context," has been formed. In the new cultural context, the relationship between literature and politics show the trend for the growing alienation, writers no longer used on the revolutionary political ideas and ideology to graphic war, war is war, instead of a revolution. This allows the war to get rid of the revolutionary ideas of literature and the fetters of class consciousness, the narrative of the revolutionary war novel, words, symbols, naturally, great changes have taken place.This paper is divided into three parts.Chapter one: Revolutionary War in Context is constructed in different historical. A writer, his cultural context in which a change in his works is bound to change. In different cultural context, the fact that the same war, but have different forms and themes of the performance. Looking back over the narrative of modern war has gone through three different stages of history. Century of war narrative is the enlightenment in the context of 54 developed and, therefore, the war in the twenties and thirties with clear writing enlightenment color. War narrative is often placed in the visual threshold of the Enlightenment, the theme of war often overshadowed by the theme for the enlightenment. In the following a long period of time, the Chinese revolutionary war narrative is primarily a narrative. The so-called revolutionary narrative is based on the revolutionary theory of the Chinese Communist Party guidance and leadership of the Communist Party of China as its main themes of the revolutionary war, the war in writing. Reform and opening up, China has implemented market economy, the relationship between literature and politics in the past not as close, and ideology increasingly alienated from the altar to the public, slide the edge from the center, which are the transformation of contemporary Chinese literature provides opportunity, Revolutionary War began a new narrative change, a new culture - "culture of post-revolutionary era," beginning to infiltrate in the war narrative. Compared to the previous "revolutionary" narrative, "the revolution" in the Context of (especially after the nineties) the revolutionary war narrative, has achieved great breakthrough, this mainly to the following aspects: First, the depth of thought on a completely new look at historical war history, import main current of realism in the era of deepening; Second, breaking the narrative mode of binary opposition, narrative and narrative perspective diversified and multi-faceted change, the range of theme, writing objects have different degrees of development; Third, contemporary rational candles war, beginning with the war in the distance, in the history and reality of the pavilions to reflect on war, dig humanity, torture, war history by the soul of modern man, showing the complexity of human nature.Chapter two:To imagine the war under the "post-revolutionary context,". Market economy, making the value of unified revolution replaced by the values of pluralism, "the revolutionary era" unified narrative also highlighted the impact of diverse narrative, historical and literary narrative all have equal status. Revolutionary War narrative in"post-revolutionary era,"the literary imagination, as the first and largest of a breakthrough, first of all starts from the national question. With the contemporary society and global ideas of modern influx and infiltration to maintain ethnic, national spirit, the development of national culture as the obvious choice. Twentieth-century China suffered the devastation of war, the test of war, national oppression, humiliation to humiliation, inspired modern strong patriotic feelings. Writing from these wars, a national consciousness and national spirit into literature in "post-revolutionary era". Complementarity of war and heroes born of war literature is an essential task of shaping a hero. "Post-revolutionary context," under the Revolutionary War hero of the interpretation of literature, mainly for the return of people-oriented position, concerns individual characters themselves, the "humanity" creative idea to introduce heroes in shaping the image to. Different characteristics of the hero characters, such as alternative heroes, folk heroes, hero of the bush, lone hero to emerge from the small office reflects the personality of charm and compelling, and the new period to give the hero a new era of change, writers understanding of the hero more in-depth and thorough.Chapter three: Revolutionary War in the "post-revolutionary context," under the narrative. Revolutionary War Novel writing their own special point of departure, during and after the war for a long time in carrying the high political significance and function of mainstream ideology of publicity. "Post-revolutionary era," as a revolutionary war history, the sanctity can be cleverly transformed into the history of commercial consumption of resources, it is more in accordance with the requirements of commercial narrative, presents another face of war scenes. "Post-revolutionary" war narrative strategy of a prominent change is the return to everyday life. Daily writing brought the most intuitive experience is inherent in the aesthetic character of the war novels increasingly distant, lofty ethics, dauntless fighting spirit, cast head scatter blood was embraced secular revolutionary passions, interests on the psychology of aesthetic replaced by passionate idealism and romanticism are strong utilitarian pragmatism replaced by heroic words were replaced by military reality. In addition, women entered the stage of the revolutionary war novel, the novel look at the female perspective, the tragedy of the war made women rich dig deep to break through the past, the grand themes of war narrative mode, the brutality of war and women The soft tension between the contradictions, describing the war from the perspective of women, female thought process to restore the essence of the war, the deep psychology of women's wartime experience was very real performance reflects the situation of women's unique gender special care to give people spiritual shock.
