| As an important writer in contemporary Chinese literary world,Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2012,which also triggered a wider upsurge of Mo Yan research worldwide.There are a large number of research articles on Mo Yan,and their contents have their own characteristics.From the perspective of “survival experience”,this paper examines Mo Yan’s novel creation,demonstrates that the direction of his novel creation is focused on the interpretation of the national and worldwide significance,and strives to excavate the common humanity characteristics of his novel.It explores how Mo Yan creates the brilliance of Chinese contemporary novel narration by using experiential literary concepts and methods.Promote further communication and integration between Chinese literature and world literature.This paper mainly centers on the core theory of “experience”.It explains in detail the life experience contained in the subject’s appeal of Mo Yan’s novel creation and the expression forms of experience and sensation in his novel creation art.It further explains how Mo Yan realizes the survival experience,subject narration,local experience,folk position,nationality,etc.in this experiential way.The integration of worldwide relations.Hometown is the “blood land”of Mo Yan’s survival experience.The mysterious land of Gaomi’s homeland is Mo Yan’s “home” where his soul and his life are settled down.Among them,the survival experience is Mo Yan’s most unforgettable experience.The rural life and local experience here are not only the basis of carrying the existence of their lives,but also the basis of carrying the long-standing national,historical and human blood of the Chinese nation.The Chinese stories and national spirit among them have constructed Mo Yan’s poetic soul,his ideological concept of literary creation,and the artistic expression of his novel creation.As an experiential literary concept,“Give Life to Literature by feeling” is the core of Mo Yan’s creative thought.Mo Yan believes that the purpose of literary creation is to “write for oneself” from his own living experience.He writes as a common people,writes about peasants and land,writes about the history and legends of the rural land,and writes about the Chinese experience and compassion in the reality of his hometown’s survival.The position and way of Mo Yan’s novel creation is a kind of sensory speech originated from the “blood land” of his parents.He not only advocates the writing attitude of folk standpoint,but also advocates a writing spirit of self-individuation.He not only adheres to the principle of realistic creation,but also strives to integrate the subjective self-experience of writers and some artistic techniques of modernism into the artistic expression of fiction actively,and endows the characters with feelings,thus profoundly revealing “the generally accepted feelings of human beings”.It also realizes a transcendental homeland imagination that transcends the reality of homeland.The writing of life genealogy is the core discourse of the theme and artistic form of Mo Yan’s novel creation from the perspective of experience.Mo Yan writes about the local world under his own living experience.The theme and plot of his works are mostly derived from his life reality and social history.The spiritual intention of his works is also characterized by Folk Imagination constructed through subjective imagination,which profoundly demonstrates the life and emotional history of people in specific regions.From the perspective of feeling and memory,the novel writes the game between rural life and the existence of freedom of life and Folk Ethics and morality,and from the perspective of the characters represented by “I”,“My Mother” and “My Father”,it writes out the strange noise of the strength of life and the limit of existence.From the aspects of theme image,structure plot and aesthetic experience,this paper analyses how Mo Yan’s novels use experiential and sensory artistic methods to make the Chinese stories have rich and prominent unique personality and national characteristics.Survival experience is an unavoidable important issue in Mo Yan’s literary creation and a valuable proposition worthy of further exploration.Mo Yan chooses an experiential and sensory creative method which is very suitable for him,and chooses the research perspective of experiential horizon to examine and evaluate Mo Yan’s living experience and his experiential novel creation,so as to discover more ways and meanings for Mo Yan’s novel to connect nationalism with the world.First of all,the experience content of Mo Yan’s novels is mainly the survival experience,which is one of the most basic and profound experiences.It is rooted in real life and individual existence,and points to the ultimate concern of universality such as life and human nature.Secondly,the nature of experiential writing in Mo Yan’s novels is a kind of self-subject appeal,which points to the enlightenment,realistic criticism and historical reflection of human subject existence,the mystery of human nature,and humanitarian compassion.Finally,the experiential artistic expression in Mo Yan’s novels is a kind of sensory way,which is based on realism and absorbs fully modernism,especially magical realism,so as to sublimate the experiential narrative into a transcendental artistic representation,thus realizing the integration of Chinese literature and world literature in a sensory way.The thinking and questioning of experiential literary creation is also related to the communication between Chinese experience and world literature.On the one hand,experiential writing and its research,as a way of spiritual communication,is a more direct and convenient way of communication between Chinese literature and world literature.On the other hand,experience can be regarded as the content and method of literary creation,but it should not be the ultimate goal.That is to say,the description of living experience can not be limited to or stop at the level of experience.How to make perceptual experience complement or transcend in the face of rational cognition,rather than escape or evade,is a challenge for writers.Compared with the soul of Lu Xun’s novels and the broad and profound criticism of the national character,Mo Yan has written a small part of the survival experience and even its extreme.As for how to sublimate and transcend the perceptual level of the survival experience,it seems that Mo Yan still lacks the ideological height and artistic depth than Lu Xun. |
