| Cao Naiqian is not occupation writer but an average police in Shanxi. He started a novel in 1987, and become a member of Chinese writers joint in 1991, and it is a highyield period in his novel creation from 2005 to 2006. He published four novel successions. As a Shanxi'writer, his novel has inherited naturally creating characteristic of novel of Zhao Shuli as"a"potato"writer"from 1930's to 1940's and Li Rui in 1980's. And he has carried out bold trial here on the basis. Nevertheless, his novels have been taken seriously by the continent main current, even some novel collections fail to seek right publisher in continent, and has to finally come out in Taiwan. His novel is already successively translated and introduced to USA, Canada, Germany, Japan, and Sweden. Some writers in home and abroad such as Ma Yueran, Wang Zengqi, Li Rui, Wang Anyi, and Ma Yueran gives higher valuation for his novels. This article takes"It has no way to think of you to dark night——reviewing the scenery of Wen Jiayao"as the main body of a book assemble, and explains his creating characteristic from two aspect: Artistic style's inheriting and development; Going deep into digs in tragedy life subject.One, the artistic style's inheriting and developingIn this part, we analyze from two parts: the basis that artistic style forms and the alienation form of artistic style in Cao Naiqian's novel creating. Judging from the basis that his artistic style forms, firstly his reading interest concentrates on actualism works, this has benefited from stepfather's effect from childhood right away, he has accepted a lot of classical actualism novel, Later, he likes to read the literary works regardless of classical and modern, abroad and home. He once made point home and abroad writers that he likes when a reporter ask for questions, such as Lu Xun , Shen Congwen , Wang Zengqi , Chuanduan Kangcheng , Daudet , Chekhov etc. In the experience living, he jumped a queue in rural area in his youth, and he deeply realized rural life in peculiar society background, thus, he accumulated rich writing material for his novel creation. Judging from language tactics choice, he narrates a story by plain taste west north area dialect; this language choice tactics is never existed before, Zhao Shuli as a"potato"writer only expresses dialect with the Putonghua. Being able to say this choice is bold and also intelligent, because local dialect language is a precious fossil of language, which makes his novels vivid and vigorous. In the narrating way, compared with Chinese tradition narrating way, Cao Naiqian'narrating has displayed the modernity and contain relatively more in the visual angle choice. He has changed novelist tradition in the past popularity narrating way, the visual angle of a novel that is created has led into creation by inner restricted narrating way, and has weakened the narrating person's function of Chinese tradition novel. He narrates tragedy stories with calm mood, to mobilize more readers'imagination space. He describes scattered story fragments that are short and small calmly, whose narrating way is flexible, narrating in proper order, narrating interspersed with flashbacks, narrating from the end, and is rich in content.Two, Tragedy life subject going deep into digsTo defend the human nature is the most charm scenery line of Chinese literary circles after May 4th. This subject is concealed to talk about "person" color unexpected turn of events even because of deep politics color afterwards, and people start to follow with interest on the person, person and nature, person and society, person and history, person and oneself until 1980's. These subjects substantiate his novels. Until now the novel reflecting these subjects is more and more, the realist novels appear especially in 1990's, and these works have shown the human nature characteristic, existing life and culture sufficiently."The characteristic of new realist novels is to write or paint realistically, and to attach importance to return to the original condition of actual life, and to face life and reality". (Jin Han, ) In relatively loose and comfortable background, Cao Naiqian's novel reflects"human nature"tragedy subject with the way of objective rural culture, this narrating way approaches the new realist novels in 1990's in China very much, and reflect people's natural color and primary state."Eating""nature"are two big subjects of life. Cao Naiqian's earlier stage creation pays great attention to the creation of"Eating"and"nature". In creation in the afterwards no way out at dark night obviously most, the two subjects conceal to some extent, content is richer, recount more wisdom. Ugly of human nature and beauty of human nature appear by natural description. Cao Naiqian narrates in succinct language, with plain organism's habits description method, which has wisdom very much, and circumstance is simple, and ups and downs are less, but the subject reporting is very rich. His main subjects end with tragedy mostly, but this tragedy is not"big great rejoicing sorrows"on tradition significance, but indifferently bitter and astringent and sorrowful tragedy showing out under right away very gloomy humorous brushwork. After reading his works we feel constrained and out of breath to such an extent. But the origin of this tragedy produces is not only specially appointed times (author recounts life of west north rural area in 1973\1974), but has fatalistic life attitude for satisfaction with things as they are during the past thousands of years in people's mind , that's the tragedy expressed in"It has no way to think of you to dark night——reviewing the scenery of Wen Jiayao", the reason for tragedy is old traditional backward ways in"the scenery of Wen Jiayao", hand down from generation to generation even , does not readily break oneself of the habit. One of the indomitable behaviors as conservative consciousness of tradition is that the male person doctrine and thought inhibits of"the three obedience and the four virtues"for woman. The implication narrated lies in behavior of feeling sorrowful and indignant. Although Cao Naiqian's novels are objective calm description, the combination of narrating fragment is objective, not only to recount. On the contrary, he described a natural state of myriad living things. Readers can deeply felt loving and hating, praising and depreciating in works.Researching his works carefully, we can discover simple description of his works'is more, although his works respect trueness living, they are short of the third dimensional effect that story line deepens. In other words, he runs after some fragment entireness and smallness, and which brought about the excessive contradiction between its small pattern and big thought capacities. |
