The Worker’s Singer In The Context Of The Times

Cao Ming is one of the pioneers of my country’s industrial novels.She devoted her life to writing industrial production and workers’ lives.Her creation has changed with the development of the times,showing obvious phase characteristics from the Yan’an Literary and Art Symposium in 1942.Whether it is the choice of subject matter,the way of expression,or the condensing of the theme,her creation is consistent with the historical process of China’s development.At the same time,she also retains the uniqueness of a female writer.With her feminine softness,she perfectly realizing the organic unity of the Communist Party’s political and artistic requirements for literary creation.Since the new period,the academic studies on Cao Ming have mostly focused on the pioneering significance or artistic limitations of her industrial works,or the disappearance of female consciousness,etc.,but the uniqueness and value of her works have not been deeply explored,and the changes in her creation are mostly attributed to the single explanatory framework of "Speech".This dissertation takes this as a starting point,and regards the change in the creation of Cao Ming,a female writer in a period of great historical change,as a problem,and uses a combination of macro and micro perspectives to create texts through specific novels.Contrast research with life experience and the atmosphere of the times.While restoring the picture of Chinese modern and contemporary history,we pay more attention to the external and internal changes of the writer herself in this special context of social and historical changes and the way she chooses to behave in this situation,and as a female intellectual and a Party member cadre,how does she deal with the relationship between women and creation,women and era,creation and era,etc.,so as to explore the internal and external reasons for the change of Cao Ming’s novel creation.And return to the historical context of the time,analyze the value pursuit of Cao Ming that still maintains her own uniqueness in the writing style of the times,thoroughly understand the core and spiritual essence of Cao Ming’s novels,and re-excavate its aesthetic character and social value.This thesis is composed of three parts: introduction,body and conclusion.The main part consists of four chapters.The first chapter analyzes the text and finds the concrete expression of the change of Cao Ming’s creation in the novel.Through the overall reading of Cao Ming’s novels,we can clearly perceive that the connotation of the early creative themes is relatively rich,which is intended to diversify the depiction of social reality.After the "Speech",she is devoted to writing on industrial themes,enthusiastically singing industrial construction,and the theme is single.The image of the characters created has changed from the oppressed toiling masses to the masters of the country-the working class.The image of the city has changed from the culprit of "guilt" and "depravity" to a symbol of prosperity,and the tone has changed from gray to light.The narrative has also shifted from personalization to popularization.The second chapter analyzes the "unchanged" factors that she persisted in the transformation of her creation.In the early years of Cao Ming,she mainly wrote about the oppressed life of workers,reflecting the dying and difficult situation of the industry.In the later period,she wrote about the big machine positively,but in any case,it reflects her focus on writing in the industrial field.In addition,Cao Ming also pays attention to the construction of labor discourse,and his creation is always full of labor discourse.Realism has never been absent in Cao Ming’s novels,but there have been some differences in the expression and presentation of its meaning in different periods,but its core soul-the spirit and character of realism is consistent.She describes reality.Her writing stance,her creative approach in pursuit of typicality,and her creative posture of intervention and intervention all reflect her persistence in the spirit of realism.The third chapter systematically explores the reasons for the evolution of his creation in combination with the specific environment of the times and the personal life experience of Cao Ming.The reason why Cao Ming insisted on writing about workers was deeply influenced by her childhood life experience,the requirements of the literary movement to write about the proletariat during the League of Leftist Writers’ period,and her later "settlement" style of going deep into the factory,which made her forge a relationship with the workers.Destiny.In addition,literature is a barometer of the times,and the changes in writers’ creations are closely related to the times.The "Speech" and a series of literary and artistic policies,specific production labor,and the "going to the countryside" movement have closely integrated intellectuals with workers,peasants and soldiers,and authoritative criticism.Discipline and so on have become the main external factors that promoted the transition from the personalization of intellectuals to the popularization of workers,peasants and soldiers.The escape caused by personal emotional trauma,the anxiety under the reconstruction of literary space,the dual identities of party members and intellectuals,and her desire to make a breakthrough in the historical torrent as a woman are the internal reasons for her creative transformation.The fourth chapter re-evaluates the aesthetic value and social value that Cao Ming’s creation had at the time from the perspective of novel text creation and recipients.Cao Ming’s creation maintains a record of daily life in the same grand narrative.She neutralizes the rigidity of the subject matter with her feminine softness,depicting the magnificent beauty of large-scale industrial production,showing the sublime beauty of the spirit of the working class,and reproducing the times of industrial civilization in an artistic way,which greatly enriches the creation of industrial themes in our country.In addition,her creations are widely disseminated domestically and internationally,and have important influences on enriching workers’ cultural life,guiding industrial production,promoting cultural exchanges,and promoting social and historical development,and have high practical significance and social value.
