| Wang Zengqi is a writer of great significance in the history of Chinese literature and culture in the 20 th century.His works reflect a strong connection between literature and people.To revisit Wang Zengqi’s works is to immerse in the emotions of individual life and historical rationalism,and to rediscover the profound soul that once moved us.Wang Zengqi’s cultural consciousness and aesthetic taste demonstrate his ability to review the traditional values pursued by traditional scholars through a modern lens.His style and language,characterized by meticulous attention to detail,serve as an externalization and expression of his spiritual world.From the perspective of Psychology of Literature and Art,this paper explores and analyzes the “inner universe” of Wang Zengqi’s writing process from five dimensions,including the writer’s psychological structure,the deep implications of cultural psychology,the process of psychology of writing,the psychological connotations of emotional memory,and his subjective artistic thinking rooted in Chinese language.By combining external and internal research,the paper aims to restore the true essence of Wang Zengqi’s works."The first chapter aims to explore the aesthetic and psychological structure of Wang Zengqi and its origins.Wang Zengqi’s unique,introverted,and reserved personality shapes his distinctive way of perceiving and depicting the world,resulting in a profound,secluded,romantic,and inclusive literary style.His tranquil approach to observing the world imbues his descriptions of mountains,rivers,scenery,and plants with a picturesque and freehand quality,while also reflecting a humanistic perspective on life.Moreover,the dialectical interplay between incompleteness and warmth underpins Wang Zengqi’s innate psychological structure,where the warmth of his spirit counterbalances the weight of his incompleteness,creating a harmonious coexistence that flows through his artistic creations.In the face of the turbulent changes of his time,Wang Zengqi bravely accepts the unpredictability of fate with equanimity,adopting a moderate philosophy of life that enables him to face both others and himself with optimism.The second chapter primarily focuses on exploring the “pan-textual” foundation of Wang Zengqi’s artistic philosophy.The distant and picturesque memories of the water town,coupled with the profound historical and cultural heritage,provide ample nourishment for Wang Zengqi’s artistic imagination.This gives rise to a harmonious and self-sufficient spatiotemporal narrative that embodies the essence of literary geography.Wang Zengqi’s profound family education consciously carries forward the style and charm of Tang Dynasty legends,Song Dynasty notes,and Tongcheng prose in his literary creations,allowing the classical literary tradition to flourish with modern sensibilities.The aesthetic ideals upheld by the “Beijing School” literature form the core of Wang Zengqi’s artistic philosophy,while his lyrical style has become his everlasting artistic signature.Wang Zengqi’s extensive knowledge of both ancient and modern times is also reflected in his appreciation of Western modernist literature.The literary influences of Azorin and Turgenev illuminate Wang Zengqi’s journey of artistic creation.The third chapter delves into the dynamic psychological process behind Wang Zengqi’s literary creations,with a focus on the driving force behind artistic creation,the psychological foundation of conception,and the thought process.Through this exploration,the artistic laws that are hidden and concealed within Wang Zengqi’s entire artistic practice are revealed.The value and function of his writing motivation lie in its ability to activate spiritual code and artistic generation.This reveals that Wang Zengqi,driven by childlike innocence and sexual instinct,infuses healthy humanity into his lyricism and narrative.However,the state of “contemplation” and“innocence and clear mind” allows him to detach from things,providing the necessary psychological foundation for his meticulous conception with a broad-minded and unruly mood.Additionally,the inner monologue,dreams,and time-space interlacing induced by free association not only construct the psychological prerequisites for his writing conception but also imply all the complex processes of the subject’s thinking operation.The fourth chapter aims to explore the relationship between Wang Zengqi’s emotional memory and the development of aesthetic psychology.The psychological framework constructed by his emotional memory originates from his innate perception of life in the universe.The resulting spiritual energy effectively captures the initial scene of endless homesickness and longing.On one hand,Wang Zengqi has formed a “super-stable” emotional foundation through his acute perception of the original sounds,colors,and scents of life.This foundation is then reflected in his artistic creations,which are imbued with the entanglement of emotional memory and aesthetic spirit.On the other hand,he chose a concrete way to convey emotional memory and rich female imagery to convey the warm rhythms of life,employing realistic and tangible images of craftsmen to evoke the ancient national cultural history.The subjectivity and malleability of emotional memory enable Wang Zengqi to transcend the difficulties of reality in his artistic expression and to narrate the profound emotions and warmth of the world with a fresh and poetic style.The fifth chapter aims to elucidate Wang Zengqi’s artistic philosophy that upholds the Chinese language.Wang Zengqi employs the form of “words as heartfelt voice” to manifest the complex emotional activities of the subject,pursuing a mode of expression that is both grounded in the body and distant from materials.This greatly enriches the writing vitality of the modern Chinese language since the May Fourth New Literature Movement.Wang Zengqi’s practice of language concept that upholds the Chinese language constructs the individual,thoughts,and semantics,bridging the gap between Europeanized language and classical expression.Through the dimensions of content,culture,implication,and fluidity in literary language,Wang Zengqi achieves an effective interpretation of the ontological status of language.This is based on the perspective of ideographic thinking of form,sound,and meaning,and establishes the expressive paradigm of literary language based on textual research.The study of Psychology of Literature and Art undoubtedly provides Effective way to enter Wang Zengqi’s artistic world.It sheds light on Wang Zengqi’s secret spiritual journey as a subject and serves as an important pathway to explain his artistic concept and life philosophy.Wang Zengqi as well as his literary works,thoughts,and poems have become a model for future generations.Looking back at Wang Zengqi’s life and work is significant in caring for and illuminating present-day reality.As a writer,the author of this paper recognizes the weight of Wang Zengqi’s lifelong artistic practice and insists on discussing him through textual research,righteousness,and demonstration of the “Qian and Jia School.” The author strives to objectively and truthfully restore the psychological process of Wang Zengqi’s artistic practice,avoiding subjective assumptions and poetic readings as much as possible.While the“truth” of history may be elusive,every researcher has to strive for accuracy.This paper on Wang Zengqi,which takes Psychology of Literature and Art as a critical path,aims to provide valuable and meaningful references for future researchers and successors. |
