Compared with the traditional and modern ethics, this dissertation takes the ethics as the starting port, and conducted investigation on"17-year Literature"systematically."17-year"is a highly exchange time of politics and ethics, with the core of revolutionary moral which forms"one unification". Therefore, with the comparison of any other literature in history,"17-year Literature"has to undertake double obligation: political publicity and social ethics resources integration, which is over heavy and hard.The feedback of literature to politics will be reflected from the inner ethics value. The political elements usually become the dominant ethics resources as the external condition for building up ethics value. Therefore, ethics plays a very vital role which can not be neglected in the"17-year"when sticking on"politics first, artistic second". Since the"17-year Literature"combines the political and moral functions, it has shown the specification of all in one when constructing ethics. This"all in one"model has made the text show a certain of tension."17-year Literature"has constructed new ethical system with the core of revolutionary moral through"traditional"and"modern"ethical pattern. This article breaks through the common view that studies 17-year literature through the relations of the politics and the literature, and takes ethics and morals as the starting port to inspect the ethics view's producing condition of 17-year literature. The goal is explain the characteristic of variation of 17 -year literature ethics through the interaction between literature, politics and ethics interaction.Then it promulgates the deficiency of 17-year ethics resources with the Marxism dialectical development view and standing in the modernity point It will be advantageous to the construction of ethics view in the futher.This dissertation consists of 4 chapters.Chapter 1 the subversion to traditional ethicsThe ethics construction of the"17-year Literature"has to break up traditional ethics and establish self ethics system. Faced with Father and Husband Power, and taking blood as the bridge of feudalism ethical system, the first problem that"17-year Literature"has to resolve is reestablish Bi-sex relationship, and totally subvert the concept that"the male is better than the female". The strengthen of female awareness is an obvious feature of"17-year Literature". Women's social and political status has been improved greatly, and they have come out of their private house, and engaged themselves into every field for social production. In the meantime, they have earned equal rights with men rather than living as men's affiliation. They are being protected politically and legally when running after marriage freedom, and the traditional virtue specially for women has been spurned.During the process of traditional ethics subversion, feudalism parents power has been challenged, and the youth actively escape home. All these show that traditional family ethics has been destroyed.Simultaneously, that"class"has become the highest standard of whether it is family members has replaced the traditional ethics.Chapter two Deconstruction to modern ethicsExcept for alteration and subversion to traditional ethics,"17-year Literature"has also deconstructed self departmentalism in the May Fourth Period. The collectivism destroyed the system of individualism."17-year Literature"has deconstructed modern ethical system with the core of"human"in the May Fourth Period."I"has been rejected because collectivism has spurned individualism. In front of politics, the individual has to control their personal feelings; intellectuals with strong and sensitive personalities have become foundlings of that time.People can conquer individualism through revolutionary sense. Therefore,"person"has been substituted by"people", and"human"has been substituted by"national character".Chapter 3 The construction of Utopian Ethics.Through subversion to traditional and modern ethics,"17-year Literature"has constructed the ethical order with heavy utopian color. With the core of revolutionary value, and"loving nation, loving party and loving socialism"as construction logics,"17-year Literature"has constructed heavy utopian national ethics. It regards selfishness as moral appeals, and moulds moral vane ----hero and new-age person. Not only the confrontation between public and private, but also dealing with the conflicts of the two roads, all these can express the revolutionary moral request of"17-year Literature".Chapter four: Corresponding revolutionary and folk ethics.The pursue of aesthetics of populism have provided premise and possibility for the correspondence between revolutionary and folk ethics. The admiration to the"workers, peasants and soldiers"has made them the main performance objects in literature, while the new social image has become the example for people to learn. The combination of the Revolutionary ethics and folk ethics firstly show the alteration on marriage concept. The revolutionary ideal has explained the traditional family status concept. In"17-year Literature", traditional marriage value has changed, class position, political status, thought progress have become the new standard for marriage, from which the new marriage style–mutually helping, has been built up. Secondly, in the aspect of"love affairs", the"17-year Literature", based on class conflict, has realized mutual transformation between traditional and revolutionary ethics.The"17-year Literature"has constructed the ethical moral system with class as the standard, it has subverted traditional ethical relationship of human beings, and denied modern ethics which takes individual as standard. Nowadays, when we reflect the"17-year Literature"with Human as the heart of ethical construction, we have to be surprised for losing human nature. The people-oriented literature is human's research, and it should be the root of literature ethical construction.When the ideal of"our final consciousness"has not been realized which proposed by the pioneer of the May Fourth Period, any attempts to borrow 17-year literature ethics resources are inopportune.
