The literary works about rousticated youth published officially during the Cultural Revolution is a unique part of literary works during Cultural Revolution. On the one hand, it has the traits of "model" and "political" just as the literary works during the Cultural Revolution has; on the other hand, it provides some new points unlike what’s revealed from the literary works during the Cultural Revolution due to its special subject and character. On the one hand, it assimilates the writing pattern from "Yang Banxi" and "Russia and Soviet literature"; on the other hand, it influences the literary works about the rousticated youth after1976.1want to contentrate on the diversity and the continuity of the literary works about rousticated youth published officially during the Cultural Revolution. That’s what neglected in the literary history.Firstly, I want to clarify the traits of the literary works about rousticated youth published officially during the Cultural Revolution, including their model of narration and politicized topic just like the most literary works during the Cultural Revolution. Besides, I would like to discuss the vagueness topic like decent and the relationship between peasants and rousticated youth to provide a different viewpoints from that in the literary works during the Cultural Revolution. Then, I would probe into the reasons why a style of these novels is formed. One reason is the literary resources and the other is the model of production. The main literary resouces of the literary works during the Cultural Revolution are "Yang Banxi" and "Russia and Soviet literature"."Yang Banxi" brings the literary works about rousticated youth the illustration of "class enemies", as "Russia and Soviet literature" brings them heroism."Yang Banxi" and "Russia and Soviet literature" influence them on the aspect of seting characters and developing plots. In addition, the model of production makes the literary works about rousticated youth during the Cultural Revolution more stylized and political. The identity of writers suggests that the works were made intentionly. The writers were selected by party committee, they had little initiative. Moreover, there would be a long period modified by editors thus made writers even less initiative. The literary works become the mouthpiece of politics.However, the literary works after1976which is attached to humanity also assimilates lots of "toxin" from the literary works during the Cultural Revolution. The obsession of collective, the catering of the policy, and the same concept contained in the text which is written by the same writer in different period all made the literary works after1976linked to the literary works during the Cultural Revolution.
