first chapter summarizes the formation of revolutionary ethics in Yan ’an literature and art.The second,third and fourth chapters are the concrete forms and overall characteristics of the revolutionary ethics in Yan’an literature and art,they are the popular nature of Yan ’an literature and art,the class nature of Yan ’an literature and art and the national nature of Yan ’an literature and art.The fifth chapter goes deep into the dimension of political and historical context to understand the reasons why Yan ’an made historical choice of revolutionary ethical values in the period of literature and art.The details are as follows:The first chapter mainly discusses the formation of revolutionary ethics in Yan ’an literature and art.China’s enlightenment thought emerged in the May Fourth Movement period.The emergence of the New Culture Movement subverted the ethical thoughts in traditional literature and art.In the liberation movement of literary and artistic thoughts,the individualistic ethics with individuals as the main body was emphasized,attempted to awaken the individual self through literary works and movements.After the May 4th New Culture Movement,with the deepening of national crisis and the escalation of national war,individualism ethics began to turn to collectivism ethics,The ethics of the revolution in literature and art at this time reflected the characteristics of attaching importance to the collective and advocating dedication,which marked the initial establishment of the ethics of the revolution in literature and art in Yan ’an.In May 1942,Mao Zedong published The Speech at the Yan ’an Forum on Literature and Art.The direction of "popularization of literature and art" marked the formation and establishment of the people-oriented ethics of literature and art revolution.In the practice of literary works and activities,the ethics of Yan’an’s literary revolution showed the identification of the proletariat and the emphasis on the revolutionary goal.The second chapter focuses on the impact of the popular development direction of Yan’an literature and art on the individualism ethical thought under the guidance of revolutionary ethical thought,and the pandering and merging of individualism to the revolutionary masses.Intellectuals’ living conditions and class thoughts have undergone a fundamental change,the laggards in Yan’an society became the object of transformation and solidarity by the masses,women emerged from class oppression into revolutionary groups and became revolutionary forces,Individualism becomes an integral part of collectivism.Individualism was redefined and transformed in revolutionary practice.In the historical context of the Revolutionary War,the individualistic ethics that pursue individual freedom and value are covered by the proletarian revolutionary ethics that pursue social salvation and class liberation.Yan’an literature and art therefore presented the characteristics of popular revolutionary ethics.The third chapter examines the class identity consciousness in Yan’an literature and art under the influence of revolutionary ethics.Family,literary associations and folk literature and art are selected to comb and analyze the three components of Yan’an literature and art.Under the guidance and discipline of the revolutionary ethical thought,how did they realize the change of class stance and become the creators and propagandist of the ethical thought of Yan’an’s literary and artistic revolution from the original loose state.The revolutionary ethics discussed in this chapter is a special ethical form generated by class identification in the proletarian revolution under the leadership of the Communist Party of China,the influence of this ethical thought on Yan’an literature and art effectively gathered the revolutionary forces and promoted the revolutionary process.In the Yan ’an period,the consciousness of proletarian identity with workers and peasants as the main body became a part of revolutionary ethics,and the identification of class identity replaced the original value judgment.The fourth chapter discusses the change,application and development of nationalist ethics thought in Yan’an literature and art as the consistent value ruler.With the progress of the war,the historical context and revolutionary mission of Yan’an region changed.During the AntiJapanese War,the nationalist thought in revolutionary ethics was deeply embodied and widely applied in Yan’an literature and art.With the change of the main contradiction of the society and the change of the revolutionary goal,the nationalist thoughts of Yan’an literature and art continue to act on the revolutionary ethical thoughts in the state of collusion,and became the moral judgment standard for constructing the revolutionary ethical thoughts of Yan’an.This kind of collusion relationship is mainly embodied in "national nature and class nature" and "national nature and modernity".First of all,in the relationship between national character and class character,class contradiction replaced national contradiction as the main social contradiction during the War of Liberation.In the proletarian revolution led by the Communist Party of China,nationalism took a class position,and different classes showed different national characteristics,however,nationalism also has the common attributes of the people,which can be analyzed in specific circumstances.Nationality and class nature in Yan ’an literature and art are mutually conditioned and can be transformed into each other.Secondly,in Yan’an’s revolutionary ethical thought,the relationship between nationality and modernity is not contradictory.It is a successful practice of Yan’an literature and art to use Marxism in China to construct a new revolutionary ethical thought of Chinese style and Chinese style by containing "modernity" in "national character".The fifth chapter is mainly from the perspective of political reality and historical context to understand the reasons why Yan ’an literature and art chose revolutionary ethical values.As a kind of social ideology,literature and art are already influenced by political forms.As a kind of social existence,the form of political ethics become the value yardstick that influences literary and artistic practice,the value direction of the ethics of the literary revolution is to establish a good and just social order and realize people’s self-cultivation in society through the influence of literary and artistic practice on political activities.In the specific revolutionary historical context of Yan’an period,literature and art were endowed with a historical mission and became a medium for the dissemination of revolutionary thoughts,through the ideological transformation of literary and artistic workers,literary and artistic works and activities bear the responsibility of propaganda and development of revolutionary culture.It presents the characteristics of popularity,class and nationality.But at the same time,the intervention of revolutionary ethics into ideology makes the concern about justice of political ethics turn into excessive concern about revolution,Ignoring the construction and development of literature and art itself damages the independence of literature and art and the diversity of aesthetics.Today,we re-examine Yan’an literature and art from the perspective of revolutionary ethics,which is to go back to the historical scene and objectively think about the value of revolutionary ethics.It can be said that the basic connotation of the ethics of Yan’an’s literary revolution is to regard literature and art as the political revolutionary ethical activity of the mass subject to understand and transform the society under certain historical conditions.The conclusion part reflects and summarizes the lack of individualism in the ethics of Yan’an’s revolution in literature and art.In the special period of history,the emphasis on revolutionary ethics manifests the lofty national faith and revolutionary faith.The revolutionary ethics thought participated in the practice of the revolutionary cause through the intervention of Yan’an literature and art,and played a positive role in promoting the construction of a modern country.However,while paying too much attention to collectivism and revolutionary ethics,it caused the relative neglect of individual freedom and individual liberation,which caused the individual life and individual value to be ignored and weakened in the revolutionary context.The occurrence of this phenomenon makes the literature and art in Yan’an present the single pursuit of the revolutionary ideal on the whole,which is contrary to the rich aesthetic feeling of human emotion.However,in the big era,literature and art,as an ideology active in revolutionary practice,make a historical choice conforming to The Times,which is also the mission.
