The Japanese Imagesin The Works Of The Writers In The Early Creations Society

The thesis makes an analysis of the Japanese images in the early works of the writers at the beginning of the Creation Society, which puts a particular emphasis on the creation of the novels. There are three parts in this thesis. Firstly, the Japanese images in the works are analyzed, which are concluded into three kinds of images. They are the image of the beautiful natural scenery in Japan, the image of modern civilized city and the image of Japan. The image of Japan is the main content, especially the vivid image of the Japanese women created by the writers. Through the macroscopical summery of these Japanese images, it is not hard to find that the images created by these writers present the obvious similarity:any kind of Japanese images represents a strong sense of subjective emotion and holds certain kind of symbolized and instructive meaning, and become a symbol subjectively created by the writers. At the same time, it has to be mentioned that there are also differences existing in the Japanese images on the basis of the similarity because of the different emotional experiences and creative styles. This is also one of the shinning points in the thesis that cannot be ignored. Secondly, it can be easily found that the main topics of these works are "amour". Every amour ends with tragedy. When the reader has a deeper insight into the works, they will easily find that this is the intention of the writers. The writers intend to express their heavy and suffering "ambition for saving the country" through the topic of seemingly relaxing "amour". This writing technique of "expressing ambition through the narration of amour" adopted by the writers gives every amour a sense of politics. The beginning, the development and the end of the amour are just the process of the self-improvement, the lost and the frustration of the writers when they try to save the country. It is very obvious but not so heavy when the writers use "amour" to express "political ambition". In the end, on the basis of the former analysis, the thesis presents the macroscopical attitudes of the writer towards Japan entirely and the reflection on the establishment of modern China through the observation of Japan based on the analysis of the Japanese images. When the writers step on the Oriental Island, Japan is the true existence that can be touched, interacted and felt for them, which further triggers their self-examination. Through this mirror of Japan, they realize that it won’t be effective for China to copy Japan’s or any other country’s way of reforming to save the country. The corruption of China lies in its inner system and the reform should be conducted directly into the center of the system. The corruptive politics, economy, the feudal ethics and morality, and the backward and secluded nationality should be eliminated originally and then should be reformed. After the reflection, the writers regard Japan as another piece of scenery. They cannot express their closeness and hatred clearly towards Japan, a country who nourishes them in the aspect of culture but rides roughshod over them in the wars. From the perspective of the culture, the writers are under the great influence of the Japan’s ideology and culture, so they feel close emotionally. However, from the perspective of the nationality, the hatred cannot be eliminated but is increasing when China faces the crisis of being carved up, which is expressed clearly in their works. From the above, the macroscopical attitudes towards Japan of the writers can be summarized as the combination of the cultural closeness and national hatred under the slaughter and the invasion of Japan and influences of Oriental culture.The images are analyzed through the text; and Japan is analyzed through the images. Further, the self-examination is made through this mirror of Japan. Through the interaction of self and the other one, the writers’emotion is analyzed. Then, the writers’view towards Japan and the view towards modern China are summarized. This is the combination of the realistic meaning and the spirit of the time, which not only promotes the cultural communication between China and Japan but also preserves a piece of precious memory.
