As a literary phenomenon, "blood romantic" and "ferocious animals," showed a certain cultural identity, aesthetic pursuit, the general characteristics of the arts can grasp, such as the Cultural Revolution China's youth (especially the urban youth) to capture the survival of the state And life experience, not without exaggeration of the literary language, and aesthetic standards of aesthetic and literary norms of alienation, and so on. Here, the author is also their contemporary Chinese literature as a remarkable literary phenomenon, a cultural criticism.These two works are to some extent in the last century to the 1960s and 1970s to the Cultural Revolution, a detailed description. Turbulent social environment, the red banner of the classic slogan of the youth and freedom, these are intended as repeated in two works, and become one of its most Xinxuan deduction and the most talked about by the plot. Well, these elements behind the best-selling, which is hidden ideological and aesthetic characteristics and flow? ? I think that the two novels that have emerged around the order, it is the era of the Cultural Revolution after the Cultural Revolution to imagine the idea of changing the redevelopment, and this changes the importance of the aesthetic characteristics of the violence and youth. On the one hand, youth violence to provide the necessary vigor, passion and physical strength to enable it to a more blatant and more imaginative ways vent on the other hand, the legitimate youth violence has also provided a broad stage to To meet the nature of attitude and cool 2bohemian vibe. They encourage each other and stimulate each other, so that the novel's narrative more in line with the aesthetic of contemporary consumer society needs to stimulate people's imagination.In the method, I study the problems in the use of this is a way, is how the actual use "theory" to explore a series of literary narrative structure and strategy. In the course of discussion, I use a variety of theories. Although these theorists premise of the theory may not be consistent, and some even contradictory, but I would still put them together, not for hanging dormant or eliminate the differences between them, but in order to clarify the specific issues to be discussed. I think that, if the theory as a useful tool, rather than limit the system, for the theory will provide a new perspective for people to solve the problems encountered in the key.I am still in the text of two works by the Red Guards complex contains an analysis, and their families on the Red Guards into the political and social role, this role is mainly through the political culture in the intergenerational transmission to the To realize. Red Guards of the family background and different social and political status, their political and social role is different from the social effects of view, it is Shututonggui.Red Guards fathers or participated in the revolutionary war, or experienced a baptism of the various political campaigns. The dominant "leftist" political culture after a long period of accumulation and become fathers inherent in political awareness, called "Revolutionary Generation" and "subordinate to the generation." Red Guards generation from the time of birth, parents began to be the impact of political values. Revolutionary family of the Red Guards of the political and social role of major-and commitments reflected in two aspects. On the one hand, political and social process of the political culture is most clearly the performance of the older generation of people in the new generation to convey the people of this community's political values, political views and political beliefs, political norms in the process, demonstrated by a certain Options tendencies. Revolutionary family of parents through their personal experience and repeat the self-evaluation and institutionalization of the historical and political education, and other ways consciously or unconsciously, to experience feelings of the revolution, a priori communist revolutionary ideals and culture of war, the will-power advocates, such as To the next generation on the other hand, the Red Guards from generation to experience the culture of superiority, the parents held by the political culture consciously study, understand, will be incorporated into their own political personality, political psychology, political attitudes and social observation to the . Several novel hero Zhong Yue Man, Mr. Ocean, LI Yuan-chao of the more typical experience.Revolutionary history and its political culture is contained by the store and social mechanism to explain. But the "cultural revolution" before and the early, some students began to visit the revolution, "the Holy Land," re-take long march routes, to imitate the older generation such as Mao Zedong's revolution, praises the revolution for his political and cultural arts programs and other activities, to reproduce revolutionary history, common memories, Imagine, which contains recognition of the political culture, different memories have been suspended. Revolutionary myth and narrative structure have been given the existing form. Beyond the time limits of the political culture was revealed that manufactured. As the Red Guards faced individual pressure groups, have a sheep mentality, through mutual imitate a wake-up call, and other forms of infection "from the memories and intends to drill in the activities of the revival of the prototype are valuable ideas." So that individual and peer group posted a more recent, as a peer group to share the political culture has been spread and intensify.In conclusion, I will summarize for the two novels is a consumer of literature and the mass media to meet the aesthetic standards, as mentioned earlier, it is through both the "aesthetic of violence" and "New Narrative" exaggerated, Cultural Revolution's history, memory and imagination to do the re-construction.Consumer Culture forgotten the function of divergence, the literature on the Cultural Revolution in the memory of the tragic lost. The transformation of cultural values and a hero to all kinds of dislocation, the contrast and conflict, but this role can not bear the tragic soul of the tragedy of mental torture. Clean them in collusion with the struggle between the pretentious and Weiquqiuquan between the swing, given their lives in a black-humor comedy.The media repeated bombing of power transmission as a discourse, so that people's thinking, emotional, aesthetic purport unknowingly under their control. The media is another feature of its information proliferation, and the emasculation of filtering mechanism. As the "blood romantic," and if the cadres literary and film works have been made, "" blood romantic "second" or even "third" of the banner, but the main aesthetic taste and artistic characteristics but is still violence and youth.
