Liu Qings "Pioneering ", Lu Yaos "Ordinary World" and Chen Zhongshis" White Deer Plain" based on different periods wrote people and affairs on the land of Shaanxi, joining the company or not in early socialist society, opposition of urban and rural in the reform and opening era, and re-examination of the Confucian Culture under the major cultural background. The works reflected three writers aesthetic of Chinese local civilization.This thesis analyzed the texts mainly from the angle of villagers fate in the developing times. It tracked villagers life trend and changes of rural social structure presented in Contemporary Literature by the farmer figures generating history. It further explored the relationship among changes in a century, villagers fate and national culture evolution, as well as their aesthetic expression in literary works.With the view of class analysis, "Pioneering" created Liang Shengbao and other images around the process of a mutual aid team's growth. It described the status of early agricultural cooperative movement in 1950s, demonstrated the inevitable historical destination towards which individual villagers abandoned private property, accepted public ownership and progressively set foot on socialist collective road, and revealed their difficult transformation from economic lifestyles to thoughts and mentality. When the new century came, against the background during the 1975-1985 decade, Lu Yao shaped two typical images with the Gao Jialin Qualities, described their personal striving journey on which they changed survival situation and pursued life values as well as self-respect in modern transitional times, and found the historical direction towards modern civilization. In the context of searching for cultural root movement during the 1990s, "White Deer Plain" from both angles of rural secret history and country culture deeply wrote Guanzhong Plain in about nearly fifty years from early republic of China to national liberation times. The novel wrote different fates of two generations of Bai and Lu families, recalled country life of about 50 years ago on Guanzhong Plain, and reexamined national culture.From "Pioneering" to "Ordinary World" to "White Deer Plain", three authors presented evolution of rural community, peasants'fate and transmutation of farming civilization during a changing century of China. In this way, they demonstrated the artistic value of country depiction.
