The Soul Of Loneliness And Vagrancy

As a chief commander of the revolutionary literary organizations of Mangyuan Society and Kuangbiao Society which were active in Chinese literary circles in 1920's and as a progressive poet and writer who had earlier utilized modern consciousness and techniques in literary creation after the May 4th Movement , Gao Chang-hong had greater influence and made certain contributions in the history of Chinese New Cultural Movement. The dissertation is divided into 3 parts:Chapter I :Life and Literary Creation. According to his wandering and persuit ,Gao Chang-hong's life and literary creation can be divided into 5 periods : The Period in Taiyuan ,The Period in Beijing , The Period in Shanghai ,The Period in Chongqing and The Period in Yan'an.This dissertation holds that Gao Chang-hong had shown the active follow and participation in the New Cultural Movement as a cultural worker and a. man of letters, which is not of short duration but throughout his life. This pursuit was not only an inheritance and development of the spirit of "the May 4th Movement", but a concrete embodiment that Gao Chang-hong pursued the brightness and the truth , and loved the motherland and the people all his life .From beginning to end, As far as Gao Chang-hong was concerned, although his road was full of tortuosities, frustrations, loneliness and desolation , he strolled across all of this, and became more inflexible and tougher. It is both the true footprint on the way of life made by Gao Chong-hong ,and the true record of extricating himself from darkness and made his way towards brightness .while he was chewing loneliness over spiritually.Chapter II: Poetic Scars: the replacement and sublimation of mental scar . Although Gao Chang-hong strode alone on the way of life , this was a spiritual pursuit of brightness after all ; although all kinds of inhibition in the dark caused great mental scars on him , he changed the inhibition into greatest spiritual strength under the influence of "Immediacy ", "Action", and "Philosophy". Gao Chang-hong's poems were both a true record of his own mental scars and a true portrait of his opposing darkness and pursuing brightness. 1. Chewing matrimony over : scars of love and "meditation". 2. Confronting family: bitterawakening and rebelling. 3. Making his way for the society: merciless exposure and rebellion. 4 .The tower of ideas: the yearning for and pursuit of bright future.Gao Chang-hong's poetic creation was based on the intake and the internalization of the traditional national poems and emphasized the reference and creation to the western modern art of poems. His distinguishing features of poetic arts are: 1. Emotions and feelings are frankly shown; 2. Association and imagination are rich and peculiar ; 3. Implied meaning and symbolism are deep and singular; 4. Dreamland and fancy are complicated and queer; 5. Poems adopt various styles.Chapter HI: The conflict between Gao Chang-hong and Lu Xun : the rift and estrangement in the predicament in the dialogue . This dissertation maintains that the conflict between Gao and Liu was caused by the predicament in the dialogue which couldn't be fulfiled: l.The Event of "Authorities of Thought Circles": the emotional rift in the dialogue . 2. "The event of manuscript being pigeonholed and returned": mental suffering without dialogue. 3. "The contending for Xu Guang-ping ": the rum our chasing the wind and clutching at shadows. These conflicts caused greatest emotional shock and mental scars on both hearts. Mr Lu Xun's sufferings and scars resulted from strong sense of "being made use of " and puzzle from the thought of " The Theory of Evolution." Gao Chang-hong's sufferings and scars resulted not only from Mr Lu xun's misunderstandings in a series of articles for counterattacks, but from Mr Lu's attitude of ridicule and contempt in the counterattacks, which brought him a strong sense of inferiority.
