On The Contradictions Of Personality In Yu Dafu’s Literary Creation

Yu Dafu’s self-consciousness in literary texts is prominent,and "self" is the core of personality.Yu Dafu’s personality in literary creation is often contradictory to each other.The ideological will and emotional connotation of contradiction in literary texts give Chinese modern intellectuals spiritual resonance and comfort,reflect the writer’s humanistic care,and show their spiritual value Yu Dafu’s unique personality charm.On the road of individual life growth,Yu Dafu bears the heavy pressure from many aspects,including psychology,physiology and society.The decline of the family led to the early death of his father,and his mother was on the road all the year round to support the family expenses.The traumatic situation caused by the lack of parental company and the family’s financial constraints formed Yu Dafu’s traumatic experience in his childhood.When Yu Dafu went abroad to study in Japan in his early days,the strange environment in a foreign country combined with the sadness of the people in a weak country were the reasons for his loneliness.The weak physical condition caused by repeated diseases is the main factor of shaping the images of patients with lung diseases and neurotic characters in his literary creation.The inability to satisfy the sexual desire after precocity contributed to the narrative mode of "conflict between soul and flesh" in his novels.However,Yu Dafu,who had accumulated profound classical cultural accomplishment,was influenced by western culture after studying abroad.The complex dual culture and complex mood made it easy for his personality contradiction to appear in his literary creation.There are three kinds of narrative contradictions,which are the textual representation of personality contradictions in Yu Dafu’s literary creation,namely,the unworldly pleasure and pleasure and the radical revolution of worrying about the country,the over-restrained introspection and the unrestrained and differentiated gender consciousness.Strong sense of social responsibility and national feelings make it impossible to fully realize the dream of escaping from the world in pursuit of rural and wild interests.The opposite combination of desire and reason only adds more anguish and shame to the spiritual world.In order to balance the moral pressure caused by the original desire,Yu Dafu constantly urges the protagonist to condemn himself during the creation of the text.While commiserating women and observing women’s living environment,Yu Dafu often transferred the male’s morbidmental and physiological needs to the female body,exposing the old idea that men are superior to women.However,when the transmutation of personality has various tendencies within the scope of consciousness,the contradictions can be mutually adjusted through Yu Dafu’s literary creation.The supplement mechanism of reality consciousness to literary creation and the self-releasing function of literary discourse can promote the sublimation of the author’s own spiritual realm and the value of his works,and the personality contradiction is constantly adjusted with the historical evolution of literary creation,which confirms the change of Yu Dafu’s literary thought before and after.In his literary creation,Yu Dafu often expresses his resistance to the dark reality of the society with his extreme personality,which makes the external behavior of the characters covered with a decadent coat and hides the core essence of the progressive thought of The Times.During the period of the New Culture Movement,the intellectual youth found the consensus of multiple embarrassing identities in Yu Dafu’s texts,and their perplexity and radicalism,decadence and restraint became the comprehensive manifestation of the disease of their times.The personality contradiction implied in the text reflects the true portrayal of tens of thousands of intellectuals struggling in the confused and depressed days,and reflects the realistic dilemma of people’s survival and spirit in the early 20 th century.
