As a multi-ethnic mix of the premises, borderland mainstream is affected the shallow margins by the Han culture, which culture constitutes a relatively complex and diverse, that quite different from the mainstream of orthodox civil color, highlight the unique cultural ecology form. Like located in Guizhou, Sichuan Provinces at the junction of western Hunan, Sichuan, Tibet, at the junction of Chuankang, the Yunnan-Burma border district, north of the Great Wall of Horqin grassland flag and so on, that is, the existence of borderland cultural space of significant cases, both culture and literature of the double explain the value.ShenCong-wen,DuanMuhongliang,AiWu,Zhouwen,JianXian-ai,MaZi-hua,LiHan-Gu and other writers, intensive describes the customs of the borderland, showing the joys and sorrows of life in these areas and the original natural habitat. This unique borderland culture of the oppositism, through the arts writer for the novel form of processing to construct an alternative space for culture and literature. However, such a novel as an aesthetic value has a unique style of literature and literary history has not been the full valuation, but to incorporate them into the mainstream literature of the Central Plains in the broad framework of evaluation, especially in the modern perspective, the border district as a " Strip after "the loss of a more comprehensive picture of the value and significance of its own possibility. Therefore, if the "borderland fiction" to include names such works, we will explain a new vision and underlines the unique charm of borderland culture.They make the contribution with themselves'rich actual creation accomplishments for China modern literature's development. But, there is none researcher who can critic them by combining them together. According to the former classified standard of literature history they belong to the different writer group: Shen Chongwen is the main creation force of the Beijing writers. He is appreciated by the Europe and America School writers, such as Hushi and Xu zhimo. DunMuhongliang is not only the represents of the Northeast writers but also belongs to the group left-wing writers. The contribution of Lu Xun is helpful to his rise. Ai wu and Zhou Wen both are left wing writers. The former often connects with his fellow townman, Sha Ting, in the literary history. The latter cause more attention of the literary world with a special identity as an army writer.JianXianai is one of the most important local novel school writers in 1920s and 1930s.This is a especial cultural space in all of their novels-"rimland". Wherever in Xiangxi Rimland, Chuankang Rimland, Dianmian Rimland or Ke'erqinqi Campo, and wherever it belongs to north China or south China in the geographical position, all of they reflects the culture and scene of the rimland which is away from the cultural circle of the central plains. This is the starting point to study the internal relations of their novels. Proposing the concept of borderland try to find the possible supplement and dialog during the two different culture–the borderland culture and the main place's culture, according to this construction of culture China and literature China's ecology pattern.The research of borderland novel is not only to discuss this kind of novel own esthetic value and the cultural significance, moreover emphasizes the enlightenment significance to perfect modern China history of literature of this kind of novel This article puts the borderland novel in the big frame of Chinese modern culture and the literature, taking the production of 30 years China modern literature as the reference, Through the borderland culture /central plains culture, borderland rural / modern city, edge / center, original / modern value systems such as the mutual than to specific borderland novels and existing research findings as a breakthrough point, to specific borderland novels and existing research findings as a breakthrough point. according to creation and the existing research results of the borderland novel, basing on this, we limit the cultural value and the literature significance of these novels. This kind of research discusses these special natural humanities ecology space from the Chinese modern borderland novels'construction of esthetic space and the special characteristic of geography culture, Proposing"the borderland"esthetic theory view under the modern ecology idea, Paying great attention to the significance of the borderland novels'humanities value, enriching life body of the Chinese modern literature history, proposing the new theory reference to the existing construction of literature history.There are five chapter of this article.The first chapter draws the spatial outlines to the Chinese modern borderland culture. The region culture plays the very essential role in the Chinese culture development'.

Looking from literature's distribution of China ancient region, the area south of Yellow River northern area hold long-term literature center position. Along with economical development and trading port opening, this center then shifts to Yangtze valley gradually. But the literature which reflects the area of Northeast, northwest, southwest, northern basically belongs to the borderland literature category. There are similarly geographies between the literature reflecting by borderland literature and ancient literature region. It is composed roughly with the southwest culture borderland, the Northeast culture borderland and the northwest cultural borderland. The existence of these borderland cultures provided more possibility to study China modern literature from multi-dimensions, particularly, having the groundbreaking significance to existing pattern's adjustment of the history of the modern literatured of china.The second chapter is to manifest the fascination of the borderland by the modern ecology thought, after outlining the scope of the Chinese modern borderland literature roughly in chapter one.

The description of the massive natural ecology in the borderland novel is not only to be the background of people's action, it is one kind of value existence of the borderland culture space. The natural ecology's borderland constituted its own unique borderland quality. For cleaning explanation of the borderland significance, using the contrast method, compare the borderland countryside, the modern metropolis and the borderland mountain city with the area south of Yellow River metropolis carries, so as to protrude borderland cultural special characteristic and the writers'reflection to the borderland. The folk charm of borderland mainly manifests in the free life shape breeding form borderland culture, massive utilization of folk words as well as borderland folk ballad and so on. The borderland as a opposite culture spatial concept to area south of Yellow Rive, is far away form the control of the central culture ,owing free opening but heterogeneous makings. In the cultural constitution, the borderland and the folk have isomorphic. The borderland should be the indispensable carrier of folk cultural.Through the first chapter of opposite side culture space's plan and the second chapter of opposite side folk charm's demonstration indicated that has the necessity to carry on the thorough discussion from the literature angle embarking opposite side culture space. Why does the writer adore that remote unenlightened and the cold and desolate borderland world in the common people eye? What does the writer create the humanities ideal of the borderland novel be?

Especially for the"graceful theory of human nature"of Shen Chongwen and the"earth consciousness"of Duanmu Hongliang, it indicates the depth of thoughts of the borderland novels.The fourth chapter will reconsider possibility of the Chinese culture which can glow the vitality and the vigor as well as necessity of the future nationality morals by the borderland culture.
