The Art Of The Narration Of Literature Documentary Of China

The definition of Literature Documentary, which is also called "Compilation Film" in overseas comes from the content and the subject of this kind of Documentary. It plays a very important role in Chinese Documentary field which can not be separated from the long and splendid history of China, the vigorous revolutions in the modern China, and the achievement we have made in the following30years after the Reform. We have so many exciting stories to tell and moving heroes to sing; this is indeed a time of great importance in which we are living now.The history is what had happened in the past and it keeps moving and changing. If the other kinds of Documentary is a record of the history, while the Literature Documentary is the summary and the sublimation of the history. Literature Documentary is to make what had recorded in the past tobe videos and provide people a better way to know the history.Having witnessed the Chinese Civil War, the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation, the founding of the People’s Republic of China, and the Reform of China, the Literature Documentary in China has always kept the same space with the development of Chinese society. It keeps developing and innovating. However, as the Literature Documentary industry came to a new step, the relative theory seems a little weak. The researchers in China had paid much more attention to the classification, the marketing, the entertainment and the popularization of the Documentary while they had ignored the narration research, especially the narrating characteristics of the particular Documentary.It is believed that Documentary has its own narrating systems and strategies which can also be influenced by the different writing techniques and the subjects. This is also what this thesis is talking about.With the development of the society, Documentary is becoming more and more popular and classified, the narrating structure of Literature Documentary has also changed a lot; new expressing techniques such as scene reproduction and role playing are adopted by more and more people and keep refreshing the definition of the Literature Documentary.
