Bajin is a person who has been awakened by spirit of new—cultural movement, he has insisted on having independent personality and being the master of own fortune, at the same time, he also is a writer who has not only syncretized his passion, pursuit and literature to be integer but also threw his spirit of modernistic life into expounding his spirit of art. He has expound humanism sensibility, steady idealist faith and exploratory spirit, Bajin has been struggling for them in his lifetime, in the 20th China, he is doubtless a great and particular existence, he is a uncommon giant and the 20th conscience who has been given sublime recongnition by people. When he wrote PERDITION,RENASCENCE and other works,his youthful passion had reflected his creation of new life in his works, whereas Bajin was not merely to built his edific in the ideal, once did he dive his literatural attention into the objects of trifle and domesticity, his humanism sensibility that was more profound than before would flush untiring to brilliant future like billowy undercurrent. His representative familial novels such as THERE CHAPTERS OF RIPTIDE, REST HOME, SHIVERY NIGHT, they showed his themes of distruction as the followings when he considered human as basic factor:1.To fasten on depicting despotic life which was controlled by feudalistic patriarchal authoritative consciousness, and to reveal its dual harm. In course of maintaining feudalistic patriarchal authoritaty, the feudalistic patriarchals hurt not only youth' s happy and development but also made their personality' s abruption and dissimilation. Bajin created image of mother to substitute image of feudalistic father, he tried to look for substitutinal positive factors which was helpful to construct the environment of familial morality and ethic that could achieve individual development adequately. We understand that Bajin wanted to destruct feudalistic patriarchal authoritative personality from the polyhedral.2.The concepts and modalities of love and wedlock are impacted by social criterion, its' change and development Will impact familial organicconcepts on the other hand. The famlial novels of Bajin pondered them, he threw his eyes on parties insisting on independent position on it, he broke the intentioned pattern that was obeyed to authorities. This was other grope in pursuit of modern independent personality.3. Familial organic structure will have new changes as era' s structural changes, the important representation about this is the spallation of conventional morality and ethic. The familial novels of Bajin depicted the tendency, to this problem, Bajin expressed his conflict and muddle, so we can get that Bajin was prudent and dialectic about modernity translation of conventional morality and ethic.Bajin considers literature as the existent manner, he joined the course of developing morality and ethic which had happened since the neoteric China, he also let it join the pursuit of independent personality which was in the heart of modern people, this will have far—reaching era' s meaning and the value of think theory, in afreshing to construct and earring forward humanistic traditions of modern intelligentsia which has been cultured since new—cultural movement.
