From 19centuries, along with modern technically more and more flourishing, the global integration is pushed by western capitalism and imperialism have been speeding up, and the gap of of each global part is more and more big in the meantime. China deeply draws in the progress of the global integration , experiences painly and sufferly the process from traditional "empire"("world") to modern "nation-state". After 1949, the Chinese Communist Party unified the Mainland,at every realm, from ideology and political economic system, to society public life and daily life, the state power pushs internal"integration", in order to quickly coagulate whole country of strength, and accelere modernization.At Mao's ages, because of the special circumstances of Cold War, what China adopted the policy of "the anti-Western westernization" or"the modernity of anti-modernity". In 1970's end, China practice "the reform and opening-up" policy, especially in 1980's end the beginning of 1990's, after a series international changes, the road of Chinese modernization obviously turned classic western modernity, the integrational process speeds up .At the same time, the gap of city and coutryside have been enlarging day by day, so that China becomes one of the biggest places of gap between rich and poor, some scholars name this kind of each parts of development pole the appearance of the unbalance as "split society". The literature progress in China since the end of 1970's, at so-called head to world and future, also represent the imagination of process to this integration. This thesis particularly wants to pay attention to of, some sensitive writers output among them shocked in this process experience and its token, inquiry into them how to comb their own experience with the novelistic form, how comprehend with express their own experience, try a description to present among them of to the insight into of world, comprehension and imagination of outline, comb their thread of thoughts, analyze their esthetic interests, particularly the ideology facrors behind narrative forms. This thesis think that because of various reason at the integration process these writers contact the very different environment, they shocked, so the process that they attempt to overcome this kind of mental shocked is also the process that they try hard to explore the methods to overcome these inextricable social conflicts in the imagination. In some writers eyes, the gap can overcome with the integration , for example, the disparity between city and countryside can narrow with the industrialization and urbanization.But in another writers eyes, the gap really existed is attributable to the integration, more the integration and the gap is more big. Some writers descripted the integration/the spilt society in another way, some argue each different condition before integration is more charming and interesting life, some look for different space in the integrative process, resist to the solidify of integartion. The realistic condition of contemporary China is profuse and confusing complicated and change violent, at the right moment provided huge space for literature development, although because of various reason, up to now it haven't appear that the great work concerning China of"modern" experience,some contemporary Chinese writers including seven writers that we discuss, still keep making huge effort, made the most sharp response to the reality. In this kind of response, the writers displayed the thought function of literature through the literary forms. Pass to expose the suppresstion of reality, pass to image the new living space, the narration of the writers displayed the side of literature poetry, provide the different imagination of Chinese "modern" from mainstream narrations, keep and provided the possibility of another choice for our lifes. The thesis mainly sets out from the problem, in the analytical process adopt the research methods that the content analysis combines with form analysis, endeavour to avoid sinking into "the topic decide to talk about" or the formalism of analysis simply, try to emphasize that the literature creations is a kind of independence narrative practice, and try to avoid sinking into treat the literature creations as a "autonomy" esthetic realm outside of society meantime.
