Discussion About "17 Years" Child-novels

Because of the influence of state's will and authorship, Chinese children's fiction is welcoming its first "golden age" in "17 Years".Children's fiction of this period is the research object,of the paper. Starting with character images, narrative mode, and value orientation. the author discusses the internal complexity and dilemma of Childen's fiction exposed in the narrative process of the radical Cultural Revolution.The literature domain in the "17 Years" has been influenced by the traces of "political integration", while the unprecedented emphasis on the "educational function" of children's fiction,which is mainly targeted at children endowed the works with adult-oriented image, non-self thought and essentialized narration.On the other hand, the ontological speciality of children's fictions generates some internal contradictions within, such as "Non-essential","Diversity"and "Childen's character".The conflict between the strong state's will and the soft subjectivity of literature led to the inherent complexity of "17 Years" children's fiction and the unique significance of literary history. The experiences obtained from the strong political character and particular idealism of literature provide valuable reference for the development of contemporary children's fiction.
