Shen Congwen's Figuring And Watching To The Chinese Country Image

"Reading the books that you like, in fact equals to reading the books that you'vewrote " .I think it explains the reasons why people like Shen Congwen. Shen Congwen,romantic litterateur who came from Yuan river ,drew a lot of beautiful pictures with the wordsthat permeated the perfume of the earth,and wrote the novels with beauty and love by hisabundant life experience.The local novels of Shen Congwen are very particular in the Chinese literary world. Heoften called himself "countryman". In his novels, he paid his attention to the conflict of theoriginal and modern civilization in the western Hunan province with the view of acountryman, and created the famous "Western World " .I think we can not look his novels asthe regional literature but a kind of creating about human beings and humanity. He advocatedthe Utopian way of the life, and expressed his deeply love to the people in the western Hunanprovince. His novels such as "Baizi","Xiaoxiao","Husband" and "Guisheng", reappearedthe bittersweet lives of the countrymen in the twenty to thirty years of the ninetieth century;The novels such as "Huiming","The Light" and "The Cattle", described the good charactersof the soldiers and peasants. Because of hating and tiring the reality, he created the pastoralCountry World. And in "Longzhu","Meijin · Baozi and the lamb","the love of powwow", heexpressed his love to the countrymen and sang high praise for the original way of life.Shen Congwen has the responsibility to our nation. The epoch that he lives in is thedistressful time. He saw the people's torment, and is aware of the need of reforming ournation's character. The reforming is his literature ideal, and it expressed his thoughts to thisquestion. With the deeply love to the country, Shen Congwen made the country be aappreciable image. In my paper, I used Wang Yichuan's image theory, summarized thecountry Chinese image. And I'll discuss image, Chinese image, country Chinese image. Ihope I can provide a new view on the novels of Shen Congwen.
