The Humanity Under The Extreme Writing——The Study Of Qi Lianke's Novels

Extremalisation is one of the tendencies of modern literature/ culture, and the most typical and unique feature of Yan Lianke’s novels. The contents of extremalisation of Yan lianke’s novels are primarily the extreme expression of humanity, emphasizing politics in the broad sense—pan politicization, and some surrealistic extreme experience.The extreme humanity was analyzed by the extreme environment and humanity in the contexts of rural and nongovernmental society in the novels. The extreme forms of expression include the allegorical style and polyphonic styles. In the chapter The First Extreme Form of Expression of Humanity: Allegorical Style, the allegorical characteristic of Yan’s novels could be divided into more than three fables, human living fables, society development fables, nation and Utopia fables and so on, which have the aesthetical characteristics of polysemy, alienation, fragmentation, and the characteristics of visualized metaphysics, absurdity, and extremity. In the chapter The Second Extreme Form of Expression of Humanity: polyphonic style, I researched the polyphonic style or the so-called heteroglossia style, which was created by combining with different styles, and studied the different powers and the polyphony under these discourses, in order to find the truth of political history and power.The content of The Value and Meaning of Yan’s Extreme Novels was analyzed with the aesthetics. I studied the cruel and weird features, considered the carnival narrative and pan politicized narrative. Firstly I analyzed the relationship between features and Existentialism. In the part of carnival narrative, I analyzed the spiritual qualities of Dionysus carnival in Yan’s novels, with the theory of rite, celebration, polyphony, heteroglossia, degradation, carnival and so on. In the part of Pan-ideological narrative, I analyzed the politics in the broad sense, the thinking of political history of China and the loving care for farmers’ living condition. These are the exhibition of influence of extreme aesthetics.Finally, in the part of the concluding remarks, I studied the relationship between humanity and ideology in the aspect of metaphysics. When humanity and politics become extreme that create the demonic humanity, we must ponder the salvation of humanity. I find the continual thinking of Returning Home and Redemption of Yan, the thinking process of position, negation, and negation of negation, and think about if the moral, religion, philosophy and other culture could save humanity.In a word, the analysis of extreme humanity and Pan-ideologzation of Yan Lianke’s novels, with the thinking in a comprehensive multi-level manner, is beneficial to the understanding of developing tendencies of Chinese modern culture and new-century literature.
