Based on the theory of reception aesthetics,this paper systematically studies and combs the relationship between the audience groups and literary creation,dissemination and literary norms in the process of literary acceptance during the 17-year period,the Cultural Revolution period and the new period.This paper insists on the combination of theoretical interpretation and empirical analysis,based on the literature historical materials of the interaction between readers,authors and publishing agencies of the "17-year" war novels in different historical periods,summarizes the literary acceptance process of the "17-year" war novels in different stages,and studies and analyses the literary creation and dissemination of the national literary policies and literary norms in different historical backgrounds.The influence and reasons,as well as the different features of literary reception with the change of readers' reading interest and expectation horizon,are taken into account to explain the readers' response to literary reception.By comparing the literary acceptance of the "seventeen-year" war novels in different stages,this paper analyses and demonstrates the "popular" characteristics of the dissemination and acceptance of the works in different political discourse environments and cultural communication systems.The basic ideas discussed in this paper are as follows:Firstly,after the orientation of "workers,peasants and soldiers" was defined as a new literary direction in the period of "seventeen years",a large number of "workers,peasants and soldiers" were born,reflecting their experiences and life contents.They were called "revolutionary historical novels".Among them,the war novels reflecting the revolutionary process of the Communist Party of China through describing the armed struggle of the people's army were the most representative.Sexual works have a huge audience in various historical periods.Text acceptance in different periods has a far-reaching impact on literary creation,dissemination of works,text adaptation and so on.Secondly,since the birth of the May 4th New Literature,the controversy about the popularization of literature and art has been running through it all the time.With the strengthening of reader consciousness during the 17 years,the standard of the popularization of literature and art has been unified to serve the workers,peasants and soldiers.The identity of the author and reader has been transformed fundamentally,and the author as the "enlightener" has been fully classified as an identity level.As the "transformed",they must adjust their creation according to the reading interest and aesthetic level of the "workers,peasants and soldiers" readers,and the overall appearance of Chinese literature has changed dramatically.Thirdly,under the new literary norms,the writers of "seventeen years" war novels are not only literary creators,but also shoulder the important task of building national ideology.They must popularize and propagate the revolutionary history of the Communist Party of China to the whole nation through their works.Faced with the fact that the literary literacy of the reader groups of "workers,peasants and soldiers" is not high,they must adjust their narrative strategies to spread revolutionary significance,and use them as spiritual unity of revolutionary idealism and revolutionary heroism in their works and to unify the thoughts of the whole nation.Fourthly,in the period of the Cultural Revolution,although the "seventeen-year" war novels were criticized as revolutionary poisonous weeds from revolutionary classics,in order to make full use of the influence of the works to achieve the purpose of ideological indoctrination,under the unified organization of the state authority,the "seventeen-year" war novels achieved a broader and deeper development in another way through the transformation of the "model".The purpose of further purifying the readers' reading horizons is achieved through the dissemination of entries.Fifth,since the new era,under the impact of the tide of mass culture and consumer culture,because of the "legendary" factors and the stories of revolutionary heroes in the "seventeen years" war novels,it can not only popularize the revolutionary history of the Communist Party of China and the significance of the birth of New China to the public,alleviate the public's anxiety about the lack of faith,but also bring rich economic benefits to the businessmen,"seventeen years".Therefore,with the change of readers' aesthetic tastes,war novels have experienced more entertainment and popular communication.Through the above research,we hope to grasp the literary acceptance of the "seventeen-year" war novels in all historical periods,reflect the important influence of the changes of reader groups on the text dissemination in different stages,and sort out the multi-dimensional tension between readers and authors,texts,publishing institutions and state power institutions,as a meaningful taste of re-examining the literary features of the "seventeen-year" literature.Try.
