The Japanese writer Yasushi Inoue(1907-1991)was a prolific writer who was not only well known in the Chinese literary world,but also highly regarded around the world.The most praised of his many works is his novels based on the theme of the Chinese Western Regions,of which "Lou Lan","A Bawcock Struggling in the Outside Areas","Dunhuang","Grey Wolf" and other works can be called representatives.This paper selects four representative texts from inoe-Yasukasa’s historical novels on the Chinese Western Regions,pays attention to the "multiple other" relationship between the author’s social and cultural attributes and the objects and audience groups he has shaped,and uses iconography,narrative science and text perusal to interpret the "image of the Chinese Western Regions" under Sino-Japanese relations,covering cultural issues such as anthropological other vision and inclusive multilateralism.The "other" mentioned in the paper is different from the "other" under the threshold of hierarchical binary opposition in postcolonialism,but is based on the respectful and equal relationship between the self and the other formed in the process of anthropology’s development,and is the "other" under the position of "caring for the other".The paper takes "Chinese Western Regions" as the starting point and thinks about the presentation method,expression strategy and impact.Through the overall grasp of the "Chinese Western Regions",the personalized aesthetic characteristics and multicultural connotations of Inoue’s Historical Novels of the Yasukuni Regions are excavated.On the basis of exploring the aesthetic implications of Western literary works,we will experience the author’s position of "other narrative" hidden under the deep structure of the text in the process of constructing the "Chinese Western Regions",analyze how the author’s personal emotional value judgment and ideological orientation act on the text and what kind of impact it brings under the difference of cultural structure,and enrich the understanding of the "Chinese Western Regions" with other attributes in the cross-cultural context.In the process of discussion,with "other narrative" as the core topic,from the three aspects of the narrative connotation of "Chinese Western Regions",the narrative mode of others of "Chinese Western Regions" and the narrative significance of others of "Chinese Western Regions",the relationship between history and reality is promoted layer by layer,providing different ideas and perspectives for the study of Historical Novels of Inoue Yasushi theme,and making useful explorations for understanding the uniqueness of Inoue Yasushi in the history of Japanese literature.The paper makes a multi-faceted reflection on how Tosushi Inoue coordinates the dualistic relationship between himself and the "Chinese Western Regions" in a cross-cultural context,systematically summarizes the social value and successful experience of Inoue’s "Chinese Western Novels" from the two aspects of creation and reading,and brings certain enlightenment to how literary creation can gain audience recognition in a multicultural background,and how to better "go out" with the classic cultural image with cultural symbol attributes to enhance cultural self-confidence.
