There is no time like today in which people rather believe their eyes than their souls. People are at a loss in such a complicated world. Therefore, they feel quite anxious and attempt to employ creation to express their feelings. However, as a way of psychological criticism, psychoanalysis tries to explore their spiritual anxiety and the nature of human lives by means of insight into their hearts and souls. It aims at awakening them from sound sleep, and thus they are created to reach the most beautiful spiritual dialogue among the souls. This is also one of the purposes that the thesis tries to achieve with psychoanalysis.According to the development and critical characteristics of psychoanalytic school, the thesis analyzes this phenomenon from two aspects. Firstly, it interprets the internal meaning of the works by using Freud and Jung's psychoanalysis. Through case studies on the works of Zhang Xian liang, Wang Meng, Wang Anyi, Liu Heng, and Cheng Zhong shi etc., the thesis, proceeding from Oedipus complex, life tragedy consciousness, and sexual consciousness, attempts at searching for the value of the works and even the existence significance of the living individuals. Secondly, based on Adler's "inferiority" theory, it explores the subject of disability and inferiority complex in Shi Tie sheng's works. Then, it reveals the life consciousness with the exception of existence, and the equality of life and personality value. It tries to pull out Shi Tie sheng's attitudes toward life that is actually the living attitudes of today's people and the reality everyone must confront with.Besides, considering the pluralism and complexity of contemporary literature, the thesis attempts to probe into a wider mental field, which is expected to both have a deep understanding on the creation of today's writers and keep an eye on the spiritual state of modern people. Psychoanalysis is not a passkey, but it has unlocked the door of collective unconsciousness of human beings. Freud ever strived to explain the ultimate source and motive of the literary and artistic creation from the perspective ofunconsciousness. In spite of the results, this kind of endeavor and courage will be ofcreative significance and enlightening value for the following scholars.
