As discourse resources,"anti-intellectualism" derives from foreign words,but the phenomenon of anti-intellectual in Chinese social and cultural life is deep seated.Compared with the western social and cultural context to checks and balances by "an-intellectual" and reflection on modern industrial civilization,the Chi-nese society and culture context of "an-intellectual" is more complicated,not only does show as a kind of emotional tendency which is for the opposition and rejects to the intellectuals and intellectual activity,the interaction among the official ideology intellectuals and folk discourse is inseparable.The 50—70s,of the 20 th century,as the anti-intellectual upsurge to an all-time high of era generally,the era of literature anti-intellectual tendencies can not critical to cap place partial negation and daring.The ultimate goal of anti-intellectual is not to cancel the intellectual,behind the anti-intellectual imagery is the knowledge and intellectuals' existential plight and explore road.From the Perspective of "anti-intellectualism",the paper is not simple usage and corresponding with the "anti-intellectualism" theory to the iterature of the 1950s-1970 s,but on the basis of carding an-intellectual context and spiritual origins during the period,to analyze of the embodiment and internal texture of the anti-intellectual tendencies in the text.During the intellectual context in 50—70 s,the authors,as typical representatives of intellectuals,their choice of value standpoint determines the ups and downs of their own destiny.Besides,description of the intellectuals also shifts from "subject" to "the other",from "what is" to "what should be".The germination of " intellectualism" discourse coming from some writers in the cracks of the era context,although not completely erase the anti-intellectual background,"whispering" difficultly and preciously in the era of chorus singing.What more,the narrative cracks and discourse tension presented by "intellectual" discourse enrich the connotation of the literature during the period,as well as provide the beneficial ideology resources and art reference for awakening of intellectuals' self consciousness and subject consciousness and the development of new period literature.The first chapter analyzes the context of an-intellectual and spiritual origins of the 50—70s literary.After new China was founded,the frequent class struggle,criticism and rectification,a binge of the cultural revolution and the educated youth to the countryside,make rational profane,knowledge authority overthrown,therefore intellectuals are skating on thin ice.The formation of an intellectual context of the period is closely linked with the infiltration of feudal autocracy's exclusion to the "alien" ideology,populist's "sacred labor" concept,as well as is inseparable from the prominence of workers and peasants class status in the revolutionary war,MAO zedong's ideology "to stand first break".The second chapter analyzes tendency of anti-intellectualism of the 50—70s literary.From three aspects: Dominant an-intellectual in the mainstream literature,intellectual discourse in the an-intellectual narrative cracks and compounding an-intellectual background in the intellectual undercurrent,to dissect deep into the detailed demonstration and internal texture of anti-intellectualism tendency in the literature of the period.The third chapter analyzes the anti-intellectualism and art aesthetic in the 50—70s literary.The modernity and avoidance of enlightenment discourse and the resolution in the spiritual connotation of anti-intellectualism,form a conjunction with author advocate of folk culture and strong national complex,embodying in the aspect of narrative means,narrative style and narrative method.The fourth chapter discusses anti-intellectualism and the generation of contemporary literary value.Anti-intellectualism writing depends on the author's identity recognition and value choice,the strong degree of an-intellectual tendency and the narrative crack embodying the writer self consciousness or not,both illustrate that the anti-intellectualism intervention in literary creation reflects the dilemma and introspection of intellectuals.This exploration of the road had never been interrupted from Chinese literature in the entire 20 th century.What theoretical knowledge this paper involves includes bakhtin's theory system of "language image",carnival theory,Hegel's binary opposition and dialectics,si-he Chen's folk stealth structure,modernity,narration and gender performance and so on.Through the above a few points dissertation and the usage of the relevant theoretical knowledge,this paper aim to clarify the internal texture of anti-intellectualism and 50—70s literature,and provide bidirectional profits and references,aiming at the comeback of current "anti-nobility" and "counterculture" tide of secularism,to form the benign interaction between "intellectual " discourse and "an-intellectual".
