Overthrow And Overcross

Since the 1980s, the literary circles have been ever filled with vitality accompanied by the emerging of various thoughts. In this literary tide , Moyan is an famous author who is always keeping a fresh composing vitality and prosperous creativity.Moyan's novel is thoughtful and profounded . It froms its own language style and a unique artistic creation. From the middle 80s of the last century, his works constantly appear hi our visual fields. In this process, he has tried every kind of narrative models , used distinctive language and promoted a writing for the civilians. Although he was usually placed in the controversial whirlpool, from my own point of view , his novels were a living specimen of literature in recent twenty years.From the work The Red Sorghum and The Transparent Radlish written in earlier times, to the The Fatly Nip in Plentiful Milk which was written hi the middle of 1990s, even the newly finished one, The 41 Firecrackers , Moyan's novels reflect his own aesthetic principles and spiritual pursuit. Now it's too hasty to draw a conclusion about The 41 Firecrackers , but this new novel apparently inherited from his past novels. This novel reveals Moyan's idea of writing and his values. It's worthy of researches.I have made analysis on the quality that the novel has, that is, the various tones of the novel, its language mode and the image- temple-in the novel.First ,let me say something about the narrative model of this novel. I suppose that this novel has a quality of various tones . At the same time , The 41 Firecracks has an opening construction, and at the end of it , its conclusion is not a single and dominant one. All of them all owe to the various tones and the equal value quality in it.The first kind of voice : the infinite visual field of the protagonist. The protagonist is Luo Xiaotong in this novel .This figure is of great importance . He can observe the world in his own way and hold a subjective attitude to the life and the world around him .including the author who created him . When Moyan refered to this the 41 firecrackers , he said that he was forced to withdraw from this novel, it had been narrated La the tone of the quick-fired children. Moyan said, " usually, it is the novel that models me." The author sometimes can not order his leading character in the novel, and the leading character in the novel can get away from the control of the writer according tohis own consciousness and action .We cart see the author's shadow from Luo Xiaotong , but finally, he himself get out of the contra! from the author . Luo Xiaotong acted on his own logic of " bad egg" , no matter what the author had thought. This kind of description is fantastic ,however, it is the necessary process that Luo Xiaotong grows up . The visual field of the leading character in the novel makes Luo Xiaotong change from a passive one to an active one, from a deeply controlled one to someone that can interact with the author, even it forbids the author to accept the logic of the development of the leading character in the novel.From the angle of the leading character in the novel, he only responses to the description, so that there are more spaces left for the readers to imagine . The readers fill the space with their experience and feelings of life . hi this way, the novel will get limitless space and form enormous tension.In traditional novels, the author is everything .They had the power of mastery , comment and decision. But it is not always the case . On one hand, the author must stand on the edge of the world and he is not permitted to enter the novel. On the other hand ,the author will have to break into the visual field of the leading character ,being the object and material of its consciousness. That is to say ,the author is on the subposition ,and the leading character is on prodomimont position. Luo Xiaotong is the leading character in the novel, his visual field has the Wu Tongshen temple , and the persons, animals and the affairs occur suddenly ,whether they are true or false, unreal or authentic,...
