Though Fangfang and Chili are the two representatives of the Neo-Realism in the 19th their novels are quite different.By the comparative analysis of each writing standpoint, angle, principle, style of the novels, the essay is intended to discuss the different characteristics of their writing art.Fangfang's own intellectual family background enable her to pay much attention to revealing complexity and multi-dimension in human nature in her early writings, therefore show a little more seriousness. In the late of 80th, she has always stuck to taking the stand of intellectuals and showing complexity of human nature and contradiction to the environment. Later she has even indulged in it, which gives her novels a little bit fatalism. What's more important, she skillfully manipulates realistic writing techniques of ridiculousness, allegory and symbolism etc.Chili differs from Fangfang. Her early novels reflected the brightness in human nature. In the late 80th, she regarded herself as a "common citizen" and wrote on the stand of it. She just described the ordinary worries in life of the common people, which shows her identification and eulogy. She thinks this is just the life itself. But later, she has become more and more pursuit for the exotic stories, which shows her tendency to the popular novels, and she just tells stories in a plain way regardless of expression in the form of literature so that she can not surpass herself.The comparison of Chili and Fangfang is intended to get some illumination: Does literature develop to the cultural commodities or the weapon of spiritual salvation?... |
