This thesis takes language as the research perspective and focuses on the intrinsic relationship between the language movement in the 1950 s and the literature in the 1950 s.The thesis is divided into six chapters,the first three chapters are the first part,and the last three are the second part.The first part grasps macroscopically from the aspects of language resources,language forms and language concepts,focusing on the important influence of the language movement in the 1950 s on the literature of the 1950 s.Under the confrontation of various language concepts in the second part,the author explores writers' different choices made on the way to the language constraint.In order to consider the balance of stylistics,the paper selects Lu Yi,Ouyang Shan,Wang Zengqi,Guo Moruo,Ye Shengtao,Mao Dun,Hu Wanchun,Liu Shaozhen and Qu Bo as examples.They are divided into three types,which specifically examine the language experience and language transformation of the writer's individual writing.The first chapter explains the relationship between the language movement in the 1950 s and the literature in the 1950 s.Firstly,it traces the history of the change from "mandarin" to "national language" to "mandarin",and connects the historical process of the assimilation and the finalization of the national common language.Secondly,it sorts out the disputes over the preservation and abolition of Chinese characters before the 1950 s,reproduces the trends and conflicts of the reforms of writing system in the 1950 s,and explains the importance and forward-looking nature of the reforms in this period,paving the way for the popularization of literature in language tools.Thirdly,from the perspective of language,the development of "literature popularization" is examined,and the process of interaction between the language and literature of workers,peasants and soldiers is revealed.The second chapter discusses the acceptance,dissemination and evolution of Soviet linguistic thinking in China.Firstly,it discusses the influence of Marl linguistics on Chinese Latinization,and analyzes Qu Qiubai's reference and development of Marl linguistics.Secondly,it discusses the construction of Stalin's language thought on Chinese national common language,and illustrates several key issues during the process of constructing national common language.Thirdly,on the basis of the discussion of the former two aspects,it reveals the resulting language debate in the 1950 s,presentting the development and evolution of Soviet linguistic thinking in China.The third chapter explores the leading role of literary criticism in language writing.In the presupposition and construction of objective identification of national ideology on the literary criticism in the 1950 s,the role of readers,editors and authors in the public opinion orientation of the language norms of the 1950 s was explored.Specifically,the first is to discuss the rise of the "workers,peasants and soldiers",to explore the role of "workers,peasants and soldiers" in promoting the language movement in the 1950s;the second is to focus on the editor's role as a intermediary person between readers and writers,to clarify the editors' roles as “cleaners” and “gatekeepers” in the 50 s language constraints;the third is to explore how the writers can complete the ideological transformation through language review under the policy directives of criticism and self-criticism in the 1950 s.The fourth chapter explores the stipulation of language purity on written language.In response to the slogan of "Language Purification" and "Language Health" put forward in the 1950 s,the reinterpretation of "Language Purity Theory" was completed in three dimensions: de-Europeanization,dialect,and classical language.The following topics are discussed in detail: First,based on the abandonment and withdrawal of the Europeanized Chinese,taking Lu Xiang as an example to explore the writer's choice of the European language and the resulting language transformation;the second is to determine the conflict between the dialect and the national language,contrasting the literary works created before and after the liberation of Ouyangshan and exploring the fusion of morphological forms;the third is to face the classical Chinese in the late 1950 s,and take Wang Zengqi as a case to explore the supplement of classical Chinese to the national common language.The fifth chapter begins the emendation and explanation of the version of writers' anthology.The People's Literature Publishing House published only six collections of writers in the 1950 s.What is hidden behind this rare situation is the phenomenon of collective revision in the 1950 s.Most of the modern Chinese novels that were born before the 1950 s were modified by the author to varying degrees in the 1950 s.The phenomenon of modification from thought to language implies multiple complex motivations.In order to analyze the nature of this phenomenon,the author separately looks for the first edition,the initial version,the revised version,the final version,etc.of "Nan Guancao","Separator" and "Hong" in "Mo Ruo Wen Ji","Ye Sheng Tao Wen Ji" and "Mao Dun Wen Ji".The version is versioned to explain the way and extent of the literary language revision during the old revision process.The sixth chapter explores the language form of the "workers,peasants and soldiers young writers" in the 1950 s.After the founding of the People's Republic of China,a group of young writers with the characteristics of the times emerged.They were born in the late 1920 s and early 1930 s.Their cultural level is generally low and their language expression ability is limited.However,they have grown up to be the first generation of workers,peasants and soldiers because of the cultivation of the People's Republic of China.In this regard,the author extracts the concept of "worker,peasant and soldier writers" from the category of "workers,peasants and soldiers",takes the writer's identity as the research coordinates,and selects the worker writer Hu Wanchun,the peasant writer Liu Shaozhen and the warrior writer Qu Bo as representatives to explore the language styles of the three types of writers.The purpose is refining the linguistic commonality of the three types of writers,demonstrating the language literacy and discoursing pedigree and cultural orientation of the "workers,peasants and soldiers young writers" in this period.The conclusion is to go to the root of language.In the language movement of the 1950 s,we re-examine the occurrence and development of literature in the 1950 s and the search for content and form.All in all,based on the mastery of a large amount of first-hand information,this thesis takes into account the research results of the current scholars from this perspective,and deeply explains the language movement and literary generation in the 1950 s,and strives to show social space and historical modality in this period,in order to outline the multiple internal relations between the language movement in the 1950 s and literature in the 1950s.
