Two Flags Flying Over The Spiritual Realm

In the beginning of the 1990s, the rapid development of market economy has brought a hard impact to Chinese's spiritual field. Commodity fetishism and the consumptionism changed Chinese's lifestyle,and vulgar utility consciousness very quickly becomes the controller of popular spiritual life. The 80's idealism starts to vanish into the air, the Chinese society obviously tended to reform into common custom. In this kind of special linguistic environment, Zhang Wei and Zhang Chengzhi appeared unfit. They were far away the common custom by the lonely posture, questioned the time and the society by a critique posture, in order to protect and reconstructe people's value and ideal. From them, there is thinker's glory and loner's persistence. Via comparison between the"two Zhang"'s novels, relatively intuitionally grasps the same and difference points in the text creation of those two people, which intended to comb the different ways of exploring writer's spirit and moral perfection.First, the paper combs the spiritual-changed path regarding the "two Zhang" as idealists. The major characteristic of"two Zhang"is to insist in defend spiritual home in the age of filling of material desires. The paper exposes the spiritual development track of Zhang Chengzhi's "the mother and son---father and son---the son of religion". this progress mostly comes from poet atmosphere and the heroic complex, namely continuous pursue of sacred belief and intrinsic strength of individual value realization. The development of Zhang Wei was mostly influenced by outsid. The early work is a madrigal from the Lu Qing river, which filled purity , silence and the dream. It is a dream constructed by recalling way of writing. After the worried and indignant experience of the middle of 80's, entering the 90's, he converted quietly to the broad and growing wild.Next, the present paper analyses the idealism spirit of "two Zhang"--- the folk. Those two men displayed the idealism pursue in aspect of content, language form, etc. Zhang Wei chose to persist earth folk, while ZhangChengzhi converted the folk religion. Zhang Wei, ZhangChengzhi explored their own language form in the process of retreating into the folk. Zhang Wei chose Dengzhou dialect to manifest his own folkworld, he precisely constructed a personal folk standpoint with the aid of the dialect spoken language, Zhang Chengzhi then diligently let his own Chinese creation "run out the Chinese characters". This showed the Zhang Chengzhi anxious desire to gets rid of the influence and covering and damping from Chinese culture. This kind of impulse displayed his yearning for molding his own ideal religious folk world.Thirdly, the paper inspects "two Zhang"'s endeavor in the creation of misery narration and human nature redeem. The misery constitutes outside environment in of "two Zhang"'s works. The overall mentions, these miseries come from three aspects: the survival environment is bad, political oppression in the real life and human nature's ugliness. Although the reality filled the misery, Zhang Wei and Zhang Chengzhi still tenaciously expressed the endeavor to surmount misery and save human nature in the work. "Two Zhang" all display the strong religious mood in the work, but, ZhangChengzhi finally climbed mountains to the territory which seeked one kind of the establishment of ultimate significance, while Zhang Wei mostly was to seek the possibility which pursued the redeem in the surface of experience. In their work, all has one kind of lofty sympathy to misery, think that only with withstands misery it is able to lead to the boundary of spiritual purity.Finally, Zhang Wei, Zhang Chengzhi all were people with poet temperament. In their novel, there always ripples one kind of poem fervor. And the poem thinking mode has becomes novel's essence. The value idealism causes the rich romanticism characteristic in their novel creation. The Zhang Wei's romantic imagination displays in his kind to nature. Nature, like the person, equally has the emotion and thought, and can communicate with people, which formed one kind of "the fairy words" narrative way; In the Zhang Chengzhi novel, romantic imagination is filled by a myth color with natural deification and the spiritual factor. "Two Zhang" also pursue one kind of two-literary style with interlace between lyric style and narrative style, appear between the lyric main body and the lyricist. And "two Zhang"created a narrative language style which mixed together each language forms.
