The Image Rendition Of Caring And Competent Doctors

In 1987 the first domestic medical drama "Hippocrates oath" broadcasted,marking the birth of medical drama in our country.However,after more than 20 years of exploration and development,until 2010,the drama "doctors benevolent heart" broadcasted,it really set off a wave of medical drama.Birth and death is the natural law of life,after entering into a well-off society,health care gets more and more concerns from people.Social transformation and health care reform is to push the medical topic like the contradictions between doctors and patients;the medical corruption;the decreasing of medical ethics to the cusp of public opinion.Under such a reality,medical drama re-entered the public vision,and developed into a compelling reality-theme type drama.From the perspective of the type-drama,the early domestic medical drama does not yet have the typical characteristics of the type-drama.They often only take the hospital as the main narrative scene.The story is relatively simple and the doctor is mainly positive.As for the performance style,romanticism and the extreme reality criticism are two styles almost existing in all the early domestic medical drama.In contrast,after 2010,the new domestic medical drama,whether in the plot settings,or in the theme expression,are closer to real life.Their ideological content are more complex and diverse.In particular,the construction of the role of doctor become more colorful.There are not only some world's medical models but also some health care workers with quiet dedication and warm heart.Naturally,there will be some contrary roles to moral ethics,chasing fame and vice.Through shaping these diverse doctor images,those drama reflect the current complex relationship between doctors and patients.From the two disciplines of narratology and semiotics,we can get a clearer and deeper understanding of the domestic medical drama in the new century.Firstly through analyzing many medical drama scripts,we can find that the hospital and the medical staff as a constant line "|",the various types of patients as a round trip to the hospital "<",the interactions and conflicts between them form an unique "K" line narrative structure of medical drama.Secondly,in the dramatic conflict settings,the conflict between doctors and patients,the conflict between doctors and doctors,and the conflict between patient and family,become the climax of drama narration.At the same time,through the distinctive pictures and connotative dialogs,domestic medical drama also fully demonstrate the charm of drama narration.Finally,the medical drama also fully demonstrate the significance of some typical symbols as a metaphor.For example,the disease is not only a physical disorder,sometimes it is a moral plague,causing great harm on our social culture.The white coat and scalpel is the most typical symbol of doctors,showing the doctors not only save lives but also dissect their own hearts.These cultural symbols are not only the characterization of the medical drama,but the profound reflection of the current social reality of the medical industry.Of course,the new century domestic medical drama still exist a lot of deficiencies,such as the stereotyped performance;lost in the cage of existing model;pan-entertainment narrative way;escaping the serious social reality;the imbalance of authenticity and artistic.All those problems make them lack of professionalism and influence.Thus,the new century domestic medical drama should actively strengthen the innovation in content and expand the space of topic.In the creation and performance,a good medical story should be diffused,playing the right guide function of the mass media.Finally,under the premise of ensuring the professional quality,the drama works should further upgrade their artistry,creating a number of popular domestic medical drama loved by people.
