Try To Ask Where Is The Road On The Spiritual Dilemma Of Intellectuals In Xuxu's Novels

As a famous liberalistic intelligentsia in the 1930s and 1940s,Xu Xu created a series of medium-length novels with his unique personality temperament and spirit,and created a group of distinctive intellectual image.Xu Xu's philosophical reflections on life,love and spirit are merged into the intellectuals in his novels,it opens up a fresh outlook and thought-provoking.This paper tries to analyze spiritual journey and spiritual dilemma of intellectuals,which from their characteristics of personality,mental status and the life pursuit.From them,we can explore Xu Xu's own spiritual world,and how the concept of life and art profound impact on his characters.In addition to the introduction and the conclusion,the dissertation is divided into four chapters.The introduction part introduces Xu Xu and the particularity of works in Chinese literary history,and sums up the academic study on Xu Xu.The part also outlines the deficiencies of existing research,and discusses the significance of the article:Xu Xu uses his works to construct a spiritual sequence with distinct characteristics,which enriches the modern Chinese literary history and the history of spiritual growth,so the thesis has a certain value and significance for studying.The first chapter analyzes the two types of intellectuals in Xu Xu's novels.They are self-exile of the "marginal people",the characteristics of marginalization mainly in two aspects.First,they abandon the "to take the world as own duty" of the holy Aura which is fully valued by the traditional intellectuals.They take a skeptical,negative and critical attitude toward mainstream values and social politics,and even eschew reality.Snapping the umbilical cord with social ties,they just want to be a "free man".On the other hand,they are irrational individualists.They disregard all traditional moral and social rules,pursuit individual independence and absolute freedom,distort individualism into absolute self-doctrine.Although the performances are different,the result has also caused the original desire of life and natural character to indulge,resulting in their own and others hurt.The second chapter mainly explains the life form and the subconscious mind of these"marginalized" intellectuals.Their attitudes towards political ideals and social reality are negative and rebellious,and they are obsessed with the pursuit of absolute freedom and individual desire.So their spirit is difficult to adhere to the mainstream values of society,it is also difficult to integrate into the ordinary social life.They don't know why to live and don't know where the soil for the spirit to take root.It is time for a lifetime find,keep,blind search.Dazed "hover" is their shared spiritual characteristics,rootless wandering has become their common history.Although they think that they can be used "love" to support their own life in a temporary habitat,the fanatical pursuit of absolute freedom would eventually lead to the destruction of love and beauty that has been carefully constructed.Rootless wandering is still their normal life and spirit.The third chapter emphatically analyzes the increasingly grave spiritual predicament caused by the blind wandering.In the tragic cycle of wandering and despair,they only see the chance,the impermanence,the false and futile of the life.This leads to the question of destiny end-result.Xu Xu who enjoys Bergson's philosophy of time and life makes the characters in the novels often stand at the end of life to examine the drift of their life.He wanted to using memory to show their way of life,and tried to explain this question from the interrelation of"internal time" and "external time" of life.The result is pessimistic.In the protagonist's view,life is past and accidental,there is no future.The end of the wandering is just a nothingness.Since this road had no way,Xu Xu who had the religious feelings tended to lead them to the religion,it seems that this can be obtained spiritual relief and the meaning of life.But religion does not mean that the other side to reach fast.This complex environment of the temporality still makes this group of intellectuals tangled and pain,struggle.The other side is still illusory.The fourth chapter analyzes the cause of intellectual images from the perspective of Xu Xu.Xu Xu sensitive to think,focus on self-introverted personality which become the background and characteristics of intellectual images.The cognition and experience of Xu Xu's love is also directly affect the end of intellectuals' love.Xu Xu doubted and criticized all kinds of mainstream social thoughts,and he thought that he was suffering from existence,and at the same time he had a strong religious feeling.These all affect the fate of the characters in his novels.The literary view that Xu Xu pays more attention to the inner and soul also makes his unique artistic expression.It is helpful to reveal and explore the inner spirit of intellectuals.On the essence,Xu Xu and intellectuals in his novels,always confused in the search for the mental way out.The conclusion expounds the literary significance and realistic value of these intellectual images.Spiritual predicament of intellectuals in the novels actually conveys Xu Xu's own voice.The confusion and the search for the spiritual outlet is also the attitude of critical reality and defend yourself.It enriches the spiritual composition of modern intellectuals.The images of intellectual in Xu Xu's novels is not the mainstream images of intellectual at that time,but it is a kind of objective reaction with the most essential authenticity in the field of social spirit.Moreover,the analysis and exploration of the spiritual way of the intellectual has the eternal value,until now,it is also a spiritual issue that intellectuals need to pay attention to solve.
