enthusiasm to create new literature is inseparable from the rebellion of intellectuals against tradition and the consciousness of learning advanced western culture at the turning point of history."family problem",as the key link to transform the old Chinese social system,has become an important content written by new writers in this period.In this paper the Monthly Novel bulletin 1921-1931 as the research scope,through the text into the''Monthly Novel''the history of the scene,in the new literary creation from 1921 to 1931"family issues" the three-dimensional picture of writing,in an attempt to present a in the context of "creating" new literature history,family problems,overall appearance of writing from form to content,at the same time thinking about"new literature" in the 1920 s the development of the changes in the form.This paper is divided into four chapters:The exordium.This paper first defines the concept of"family problem" and the research Angle and direction,and then summarizes the research results of the family problem in the period of the republic of China,and then summarizes the research results of other related problems in the later period of''Monthly Novel''.The first chapter,the writing of "family problems" in new literature works.First of all,this paper makes an overall division and analysis of the writing of "family issues" in the "new literature" in the different styles of the''Monthly Novel''in the later period.The writing of "family problems" is mainly reflected in the novels and essays,and in the novels it can be further divided into the different writing forms of "family problems" in the early short stories and the later novels.Section two begins with a close reading of the text in its external form.Start by categorizing the writing types of "family problems" in general.Based on the close reading of the Monthly Novel in the later period,the articles on"family problems" can be roughly divided into the categories of old-style family,new-style family and family-state relations.Then describe the structure of the "family problem" in detail.After combing through all the articles on "family issues",some common elements can be summarized:the frequent "voice" for women,the characters'ever-looming sense of destiny,and the emotional disorder of children in the new literature.Then analyze the expression pattern of "family problem".There are three modes of expression in the literary narration of "family problems":presenting problems with psychological self-narration as the core;The narrator addresses the problem to the designated listener;Take the concrete contradictory event as the center description question.Chapter two,the contradiction of human nature in"family problems".This chapter intends to present the contradiction of human nature contained in the writing of"family problems",and make an analysis based on the relevant social background.The first section analyzes the human nature writing in"family problems".These include the "freedom"of self-expression,the desire of couples for love without boundaries,and the emergence of personality traits in difficult situations.The second section generalizes and analyzes the conflicts in"family problems".The contradiction mainly manifests as:the female individual independence and the"maternal nature"contradiction,enters the marriage and to the marriage this form question,to the new moral flaw cover and the exposure.It can be seen that in the process of the collision between the old and new ideas,the contradictions mainly occur in the ideological conflicts between men and women due to their changing and developing views on life and marriage,as well as the"action"conflicts arising from the thoughts.This is not only the contradiction of human nature,but also the realistic contradiction mixed in the change of thought and social reform.Reflected in literary works,the way of solving contradictions in"family problems"can be regarded as the author's imaginative means to solve social problems in a sense.The ways of liberation can be divided into four categories:successful breakout,compromise and concession,suspension and dissolution.In the end,this paper makes a summary and reflection on this issue:from the way to solve the contradiction in these texts,the author looks at the various meanings and connotations of the concept of"family"in literary works.Chapter three is about"family issues"in literary criticism.This chapter mainly narrates"the family question"writing from the literature review text.Creative criticism,reading comments and correspondence columns have all commented and criticized articles about"family issues"in literary works.The first section arranges the comments on"family problems"in the column of creation criticism.The editors of fictionalmonthly attach great importance to the opinions of readers,so the reformed fictionalmonthly has relevant columns for readers to make their voices heard.Readers have commented on works about"family issues"in the literary world.For example,Xu dishan made comments on the life of a bird and the merchant's wife.Most readers analyzed the"problems"in literary works from the perspective of"society"and supported the young people's rebellion against the old ideas and morality.The readers of the feeling column are more inclined to"literariness",and their views on"family problems"are more in comparison with their own experience,showing a strong identification with the psychological scars reflected in the works.The second section is about the new literature view of''Monthly Novel''.The readers in the correspondence column pay more attention to the external form of literature,such as paying attention to the writing subject of"new literature"and commenting on the popularization and socialization trend of"new literature"writing.The author pays attention to the emotional experience in"family problems".After reading"family issues"such as Ye shaojun's"two kinds","ordinary stories"and Zhu ziqing's"the history of laughter",he expressed his opinions.For example,they believe that there is both real love and real separation in the family,and that parent-child relationship is an unnatural"tie"and so on.The third section elaborates the editor's views on"family issues".As the editor of the monthly novel,Shen yanbing has made comments and analyses on the works of"family issues".The fourth chapter considers the"new literature"reflected in"family issues".As one aspect of the writing of'"new literature","family problem"can be seen from the analysis of the first three chapters in this paper.The first section looks at the internal and external factors of the development of"new literature"from the perspective of"family issues".As a publication of the commercial press,the aim of "Monthly Novel"will have a great influence on the literary trend of "Monthly Novel".Secondly,the editorial policy is also an important external factor affecting the trend of new literature.Finally,the author analyzes the writers'and readers,views of literature and their roles and significance in the development of new literature.The second part focuses on the efforts of"new literature" writing in the monthly news of fictions.It can be seen from the overall writing of "family problems" that the "new literature"writing of "Monthly Novel"constantly confirms the spiritual independence of people and seek for the significance of their existence.The third section considers two problems in the development of "new literature" from the perspective of "family issues".This article is from literature research purpose-"create"new literature in terms of cuts in the 1920 s "Monthly Novel" of literature writing,is to want to as far as possible avoid late to the western concept of "modernity" to generate the development of Chinese "new literature" of the early literature form,to return to the "historical scene" way of close reading,tries to present a"new literature" of the development of the original appearance.Therefore,from the analysis of "family problems",we can think about the role of literary utility and purity in the development of new literature.Starting from the overall development of''Monthly Novel",we can think about the influence of "discourse dominance"in the development of new literature on the development of new literature,so as to have a holistic grasp and understanding of the original appearance and development form of the development of "new literature" from these analyses.
