Research On Ding Ling In Her Later Years

In the research community of Chinese contemporary literature, Ding Ling in her lateryears is often considered to be of little research value. Actually this is a mistake. It isworthy of Study for a river when it is on its high flow period, meanwhile the dry season isalso worthy of study. Why the river run dry? This kind of phenomenon itself is worthy ofstudy. In fact, in Ding Ling’s later years, there were too many needs to be addressed,inclusive, define and get rid of things, remove the cover imagery and specious impressionon Ding Ling’s body, placed her to the helplessness of the individual and socio-politicalsituation which always mastered her, and then to see the reality of Ding Ling as a whole."Ding Ling in her Later years " is a specific concept, this paper uses this concept ofDing Ling ’s connotations in her later years life who were often seen as the representativeof rigid conservative left, in short, the "old left " image content.Ding Ling’s old "left" in her later years, is partly the results of the accrued redress herhistorical problem, just is the tool for which she had to rely on for solving historical issues.Of course, the true Ding Ling was not complete "left", her "left" is not derived frommanners completely, some were relevant with her own political interests, beliefs, life, trueexpression of the vested interests.First of all, this paper clarifies the Ding Ling’s "historical" context, secondly, it is todiscover the Ding Ling’s "historical issues" how to meet the "later year image". Based onthis, on led to " Ding Ling in her later years" image is hold for "left" of main event andphenomenon, and rumors one by one for analysis, for example, the relation between DingLing and the Speech in Yanan, Ding Ling’s educating youths," Ding Ling in her later years"and the works of Marx and Engle, Ding Ling’s visits and by visit in her later years, DingLing’s expression on "creation free", and complex significance of the writing of DuWanxiang for "later-year Ding Ling", and Ding Ling in the "clean dirty" movement, thereare total seven aspects. Via these analyses, the statements found in Ding Ling’s dominanceof this dynamic of the true reason for their frustration that "Ding Ling in her later years" of"left" instead of historical issues are closely related, reveal all these factors with external social situation, official requirements, combining literary circumstances, how to createsuch a "Ding Ling in her later years". Zhou Yang’s influence was the main characters inDingling’s later years. Result in "left "Ding Ling in her later years image is a resultantforce, was a sum of factors, besides the historical issue, and enmities with Zhou Yang, aDing Ling’s own old-age and temperament characteristics, life determined by the choice ofthe road of the bound state of mind in her later years, is to build a "Ding Ling in her lateryears" image of important factors.Ding Ling’s life always spent in transforming herself, until her old age. From thepassive transformation to self improvement, Ding Ling had been converted and got acomplete alienation, she obtained a kind of safe sense from the transformation, and thetransformation had been her beliefs. Leaders complex combined with the transformationcomplex, firmly dominated Ding Ling, including her Marxist-Leninist complex, werestrengthend by the leader complex.Why Ding Ling was always in the situation of complex literary circles contradictions,the remote cause was due to the special system, the middle cause was due to the politicalpower, the near cause was due to the sectarian relations. Too much focus on personalanimosity and ignore institutional reflection, must be bound to obscure the underlyingproblems. Ding Ling’s lingering fear after her comeback, not just from Zhou Yang, evenfrom the power and its mechanisms.Ding Ling was out of touch with social thoughts in her later years, just because shecould not reflect. There were three reasons for this kind of statement: firstly, there was notime for reflection. Because her historical issues had not yet been settled, she must besubmissive. Secondly, there was no desire for reflection to her. Because of her destiny wasconsistent with mainstream, her reflection may be in danger of self-denial. Finally, she hadlost the ability of reflection.Between politics and literature, Ding Ling was always in a State of binary splitting:two voices, two faces, two values, two types of literature views. Ding Ling’s doublecultural choices, decided the historical evaluation to her is also two-tier, and is difficult togeneralize.Making statements with detailed information, cleaning the existing viewpoints to thegreatest extent in contrast, giving my perspectives on this basis, is the upholding main research method of this paper.This paper is the first full-length text on Ding Ling’s research in her later years, itfocuses on Ding Ling’s later years life for the first time as an independent subject, is alsothe most complete study on Ding Ling’s later years life so far.
