Depending on the deep analysis of Mo Yan narrative's aesthetics,historical poetics and the novels' characters,the dissertation revealed Mo Yan's discovery from Chinese folk life and structure,through the interaction among Mo Yan, folk life and literary history.The dissertation detailed analyzed the texts,discussed his "writings for the folks" standpoint,and its meaning to him and his writing.The transmogrification perspective of animatisms contributed Mo Yan narrative aesthetics' most notable characteristics.Depending on these transmogrification perspective's patching,Mo Yan's narratives sense more magic tastes,fairytales imagination that is surrounded by pastoral poetics and nave sounds from folks,casting the multi-tune of "sprite realism".Through this transformed animal sensibility perspective,his narration reaches the untraversed margins and crevices,sews up various narration space, fills up the unfurnished parts of restricted perspective,raises the elasticity of narration,enriches the layers of narration voice,expands readers sensation eyeshot, reaches the wonderland of sound and color.This fully indicates that,only a nave heart that accumulated from folk customs,trivial grass-root life together with careful observation,can give the lively reproduction of the original narrative experiences.There are many kinds of characters in Mo Yan's novels.If we say Lu Xun historically created two prototypes:peasant and intellectual in Chinese modern literature,Mo discovered a different China,the previously veiled and neglected "vagabond",on which Mo novel's folk characteristics and standpoint are placed.Mo's representative novel Red Broomcorn Family's vagabond nature is coined in its name to be a folkloric fable.If rice and wheat are considered as the orthodox of cereals,or spine of society,broomcorn takes vagabond characteristics beyond orthodox and mainstream among cereals,which provides exceeding of human history,everlasting barbarian,even anti-cultivation vitality, shows impregnability of human society's rise and fall,"they are planted in the novel to call the wandering heroic or enmity spirits in broomcorn's field in my homeland." If vagabonds are classified in typology,they can be divided into mobocracy,virtue,and wily ones,among,which "the most heroic and most nasty" mobocratic ones are the most glorious.In the exploration of Mo's creation,Gao-mi Northeastern Town is always mentioned.This cultural geographic sign has become his registered trademark. We found that there was not only the "blood field" of his creation,but literary co-habitation world of human and space,it became embodiment of "Chinese folk",and it's a literary territory that reflects human existence.On this very land,"self" and "folk" are linked,via which,intellectual's self fantasy rooted in the field of the folk,reaches the celebration of vitality.We can say,Mo Yan found "Chinese folk",self memory and life experience,and grasped inexhaustible resources for his literary creation.Finally,the dissertation discusses the interesting interaction between Mo and literary history.We can find that he was listed as avant-garde,new historian, and "roots writer",even listed as "folkloric","grassroots" writings,this fully represents the complexity of Mo's writing,his writing can hardly be captured by any one kind of literary history.As for Mo,he is only "being a native", backing to his own heart,and writing for the nourishment of native country with his own soul.As for this reason,the author believe that the exploring and construction of Chinese folk is a non-neglectable aspect to discuss Mo's literary history,which constitutes the password and keywords to the understanding of Mo's creation.
