The Difference Of Old Tales Retold

The Old Tales Retold embodies different features from Yelling and Wandering in theme, characters, Literary style , writing style, and even the whole novel. In comparison with Yelling and Rambling, The Stories is studied as a difference. Difference is not only a concept, but also a sort of angle and manner to research.The difference is analyzed and disserted from three sides. One is the difference of special individuals. Special individual lineage is one kind of important character image in the novel of Luxun. It penetrates all of his novels. If all the three is reckoned as a course, The Stories shows new mutation in the special individual. Not the same as the individuals of whom the majority excels in thought while weakens in behavior in the other two novels, the ones in The Stories are more superior in action or more capable in practicing and even can be set apart as a behavior lineage. Moreover, cooperation emerges——or team awareness.Another important difference is their stronger and firmer will. On the contrary, the different individuals in the other two are devoid of firm determination mostly and thus their thoughts and actions are in the state of reverse. The second is the difference of feminine image. Firstly it's displayed in the finding of feminine beauty including that of the physical, facial and spiritual beauty. Secondly in the strengthening of feminine ability, mainly of creation and initiative.But in the hidden angle, the lack of the feminine life and the self-awareness is revealed, thus the hidden text and the superficial text form a tension. The third is the angle of depicting stories. Yelling and Rambling stand out originality and examine mostly the weaknesses of peasants and various intellectuals including himself from the angle of elites.The stories is implanted the angle of village illiterate . It's a down-to-up looking angle which shows a means of viewing the world.The tendency of emphasizing materiality shows the re-thought of Luxun from another dimension about such questions as material and existence, folk and enlightenment, nationality, etc.The misreading of the angle of village illiterate and the characteristics of cuoe underlie the writer's narrative wisdom and deconstruction awareness. The misreading of village illiterate the historical events and figures is actually the writer's intentional thinking way.The characteristics of village illiterate exaggeration, dismemberment, deformation or free association match with the writing style of mixture of past and present and of slippery——even complement each other.
