Preliminary Discussion On Network Literature

With the developing of the Iflternet, network-culture is gradually becominga new view of culture in china since 1990's. As an impoftant segment ofnetwork-culture, network literature not only is a new branch of thenetwork-culture, bllt also is an aPproach though which we can know thenetwork-culture well. So, studying the Chinese network literature is the need ofthe developmellt of the theory of literature, the explanation of curreni cultllfephenomenon and the foresight of the future of the culture. The thesis mainly talksabollt the netWork 1iterature's concept, development, character, social merit,aesthetic merit and so on.There are four segments in this paPer.The first pat: The concept of network literature. This ped mainly criticizesfive vieWPoillts of the network literature that are popular at presellt and we definethe netWork literature from the medium and the body of literatllre at the basis of it.Wdely netWork literatllre texts are works that are uPloaded on the network orembodied the sprit of network. Narrow1y, network literature is an activity ofliterature that people who embody the sprit of network create, upload, accept andintercourse. It includes a series of palls such as network creativity, networkliterature text, netWork acceptance and 1iterature iniercourse and so on.The second paYt: the simple developmellt of the network literature. This parisimply introduces the history and the current development of the Chinesenetwork literatWe.The third ped: the traits of the netWork literamre. In this pall, we firstanalyze the conception of the netWork. Being the consequence of advanceddevelopment of the compllter and communicational technology, the netWOrk hasmany traits, such as having large caPacity, fictitiousness, synchIonism andiflteractivity. So, being the practical, knowing, aesthetic subject, people will havemore freedom in the network age, but the network also has bad influence topeople. It brings more yoke and doubts. The fOllowing palls are the analysis ofthe network literature's creation, works and aPpreciation. Compared with thetraditional literatlle, the subect of the netwOrk literatWe has more freedom, blltloss many cofltfols abollt the works. As a result, the original works lose.Hypertext is more clearly and more flexible than the tfaditional stfucture. Wthregard to the aPpreciation, it widens the expected view of readers and changes thecourse of aPpreciation a lot.The fourth part: the analyses of currellt developmellt and pre-view fOr thenetwork literature. In this pnd, it analyses the colltemporary developmellt and theworld-inclination of the network literatllre from china economic facts, cultuxaldevelopment and the constitulion of authors, and based on the above analyses, itsets fOrth some new opinions about the unfavorable factor for the development ofthe netWork literatWe.
