| Since 1990’s,Yan Lianke began to put forward his new narrative trend.Under the influence of the central Plains culture survival philosophy and the western contemporary literary trend of thought,he has a view and examination of life,and uses violent writing as a way to vent his repressed emotions.It presents the real local world in the heart by means of carnival and subversion of violence.Violence and carnival are an important part of Yan Lianke’s works.In his writing,the PaLou mountain is always under the shadow of death and terror,power and material desire,and is full of castration and cannibalism.This is Yan Lianke’s perceptual understanding of reality,who yearned for freedom and equality.Because there is a sharp disharmony between the pursuit of personal ideal and the order of the real world,while admitting the tragedy of reality,Yan Lianke is not willing to let the sad and melancholy perceptual understanding simply review the heaviness,so he tries to choose a rational attitude.By shaping the carnival space and time,creating grotesque images and describing the ceremony of coronation and uncoronation,the author constructs his ideal beautiful world in order to dissolve,resist and save the violent reality under the control of the center and authority.But this kind of carnival can only be based on the fictitious imagination of violent reality,after all,such as "peach blossom land" general "search fruitless".Behind the carnival bubble is actually hidden more brutal plunder and bullying,this is a helpless powerless to change the reality.But the cruelty of reality did not make him give up his search for freedom and meaning.Whether it is violence or carnival,it is essentially a more rational standpoint to describe life.His attitude towards life is always reflected in the ultimate concern of adherence and redemption.Yan lianke’s writing has a precious gentleness,in which darkness and light,sadness and joy,hope and despair coexist.He illuminates the pain and "aphasia" soul of the local people with deep humanistic care,making people feel the future and hope.The narration of Yan Lianke’s "PaLou series" novels is of great significance in the separation of the literary world from the real world in contemporary literature.As the successor of Lu Xun’s spiritual legacy,Yan Lianke has been exploring the new path of contemporary local literature.He focuses on the suffering of contemporary local literature,interrogated the changes of human nature,always practiced the consciousness of intellectual intervention,faced the violent local reality from the standpoint of peasants,and inquired the soul.What other writers to avoid social responsibility was picked up,he offered as the trumpet in the new period,and tension,opposing gap between reality to intellectuals "the spirit of independence and freedom of thought" the creation of character,consciously perform intellectuals as a nation,national "shine on a demon mirror" responsibility and mission,entertaining to literature based on the writer’s conscience,Promote the positive energy of literature on the harmony between sensibility and rationality. |
