Writing of this paper is mainly based on the working platform of the new century novel, through the discussion of the time mechanisms of the new century narrative novel and its changing forms, the conclusion can be drawn as this change has made some of the characteristics stand out, these characters comprise of the writer's timing concept and the transformation of text and style. Reveals how the temporal structure in creating the new century novel reshapes the different kind of literary imagination, and how it reflects the artist's imagination and aesthetic ideology, the value of the structuring, and then cut into the pulse of the time trend of Novel Writing and the underlying causes.Overall framework and the theme are as follows:Introduction:a briefly sorting of the study of the narrative timing methods and the development process of the eastern and western Poetics is the background and reference of my argument. The paper followed a number of theorists'study of timing methods, showing the fundamental issues of relevant features of narrative and time, and conducted further study into the Bakhtin's work on novel space-time studies, revealed the time mechanism and the new century narrative novel Problems between the horizon and the complex relationships and the analysis of narrative form and its possible time. Scenario timing and inner timing are used as the basic theoretical starting point of the analysis of the novel text time mechanism forms. The relationship of the two are recognized to be binary opposite, the two are also have a mutual stalemate relationship, the narrative form can be observed from the transformation between inner and outer narrative time. They are not alone among the novel, but exist within one piece of work.So the paper used separation and dualistic mix angle for the contemplation, which means the illustration of narrative timing in some case in one type, in other case is combined with two types. To me, the significance lies in the individual work. I use this process to examine the use of different types of narrative time, exalt the common and similar item between them in the dualistic angle of view into several principles, and made a group of conclusions. I put the time in the new century narrative novel mechanism into three categories, illustrated in three chapters of case studies, and studied their different characteristics and structure function from the functional structure. Chapter one Timing structure of Bildungsroman:Dilthey once said:"What is man, only the history can tell." This means that the human personality is time-sensitive, subtle differences may be in the process of showing the time as an autonomous individual--how to use "life" to establish a unique body of this process, so novels subjected in the growth of a person has developed into a important branch Bildungsroman. Bildungsroman in general deploys the story in the "life" span; possess an advantage of 'depth', showing a face of history, an image of the vicissitudes of life. On the other hand, Bildungsroman may not begin with early childhood growth, but the part is extracted from the hero's life. especially in the adolescent stage, the up and downs of a youth life and the mood change is the anatomy of the growing up process and psychological trajectory, putting it in the process of the human growth, you can enlarge the presence of its meaning and value of life. No matter what kind of growth time, the "growth" in "Bildungsroman" is not about growing up on the biological significance, but the understanding and grasp of the "historical time ". Growth not only about the fate of individuals, but also about the clarity of historical significance of this phenomenon, is the process of existence study of Bildungsroman.Chapter two forms of recounts line in daily life:from the aspect of timing characteristics, daily life has the character of repeat, dispersion and stretches, so novels based on daily life, the real impact on people is the sunset twilight, solar term changes, alternating cold and heat, time, etc. These factors dominate their lives in such a naked and natural way, the narrative character exhibited time suffusion and slow and with detail. But daily life is full of earthquakes, it taught us the indisputable principles:truth is not always like what it appears; there are always huge gaps between the appearance and the facts. Accordingly, if the narrative of everyday life is explored from certain time perspective, there will be duplication of mottled light and mixed with shadow.Time in the daily narrative, the writer describes the reality to make reality through the cracks, which open for us the inert and slow of being too accustomed to something to call it in question, and the truth covered by the real logic of the daily life.Chapter Three Different aspects of time in historical narration. The modern concept of time has broken the past t concept of even the passage, time is not "isotropic", but "anisotropic", which means the development of a certain direction. So in the new century novel, the historical narration has emerged distinct time characteristics. Starting from the specific text reading Analysis of the historical narration which include:Variation of the cycle time is not home; history and future of the utopia of magic; the reality of historical time and allegorical; the whole time under the Broad business requirements; Chronicle of the Narrative; end to the history of vector-free; the form of multi-tone chirp in the time of the double possibility; historical time of the closure structure of seven kinds of time to form. The complexity of history is revealed among the ongoing and diversity of narrative of historical time.In the conclusion summary is made and full text view to make some worthwhile to continue research. The time mechanism and form of the new century full-length novel implies a diversity of time consciousness. Narrative time stipulates and forms the variety of narrative times of the new century novel, with the way of its existence in different length and dimensions. From the diversity this narrative time, we can see the two big creation trends and characteristics. First, the new century, the rhetoric at the time the novel returned to "modern consciousness ", including the theory of evolution and ethics of historicism. Second, the new century literature has become increasingly strange and brilliant imagination continue to show the possibility of local traditional.
