Jiang Yun is a Shanxi female writer with unique personality in Chinese contemporary literary world,and a strong sense of tragedy is expressed in her novels.It is of great significance to understand the value pursuit of writer's literary by studying the tragedy consciousness in Jiang Yun's Novels.And the tragedy consciousness has the rich connotation in Jiang Yun's novels,it can be divided into both the tragedy consciousness of individual life and the tragedy consciousness of national cultures.Jiang Yun makes a reflection with her deep humanistic feelings for individual life,including survival situation,spiritual pursuit and life value.She pays attention to the people's survival difficult position,mainly including the conflict between human and environment,man and man,man and himself.She also observes people's spiritual world,and it reflects that modern people suffer from spiritual loss and there is nothing living things can rely on without natural environment in her novels.She makes a reflection on the value of survival,expresses sympathy and regret for people who lost their life value.Jiang Yun also showed concern for the declining national history,traditional cultures and spirits while paying attention to the individual tragic fate.Jiang Yun has been realized that it has great impact on our national historical memory and cultural heritage by the western dominant discourse,it is reflected for the grief and regret of this "lost" in her work.There are three main reasons of Jiang Yun's tragic consciousness:firstly,the influence by the wide creation environment,that is manifested in the potential coincidence between her tragic consciousness and the creation trend,and shows the personality in common characters.Secondly,Jiang Yun is also influenced by classical poetry,and she also deepened his tragic consciousness while resonating with these literary works.Thirdly,the unique life experiences of writer herself is enriched by her traumatic memory in her girlhood and by Jiang Yun's drifting "Stranger" identity,and makes her tenaciously pay attention to "Life" and "Vanishment",and have a compassionate feelings.She was writing the humble men of the great era,and writing the graceful vanishment.The aesthetic significance of tragic consciousness in Jiang Yun's Novels is that she wrote about the tragedy of the disappearing life and the air-slaked poetry.But her depiction for the beauty of life and poetry makes us feel sorry for it,at the same time,reflect on the way we live,and then prompt us to pursue the destination of our spirit.The good people written by her often suffer misfortune,but it can lead us to good things by showing the beauty of human nature,and she expects people to be touched and develop a healthy humanity.She writes about misery and misfortune,but affirms the value of resisting and transcending tragedy from people,and makes us think about the meaning of existence.There are some limitations on the performance of tragic consciousness in Jiang Yun's novels,for instance,it lack of variation for the describing perspective between different characters,which makes the expressive power and the infectivity of tragedy consciousness weaken relatively,and is lightly imperfect for describing the character's details including movement,expression and so forth,and lack of new things in novels that includes structural way,expression techniques,plot arrangement,etc.But it is undeniable that the tragic consciousness contained in Jiang Yun's novels makes her works unique,and also has some guiding role for us and the whole society.
