Strange Tales of Liaozhai is the pinnacle of ancient Chinese classical Chinese novels.Pu Songling created a world of ghosts and foxes.It is loved by the general public with its fantastic imagination and language full of folk care.The "dilemma writing" in Strange Tales of Liaozhai is unique,reflecting the unique personal experience of Pope,casting the author's experience and thinking about personal survival and social reality,and also plays an important role in literary narrative.It is worth our in-depth exploration.In this paper,the "dilemma writing" in Strange Tales of Liaozhai is classified according to the theme of its dilemma.It is mainly divided into three categories: the survival dilemma of the underlying people,the dilemma of the frustrated literati in the official career,and the predicament of young men and women in love and marriage,and explore the causes of thoes dilemmas.From the classification of dilemmas,we gradually explore the typical scenes that show the dilemma: Gongtang prison has two-dimensional and semi-closed space in the words of Pu Songling,which becomes a place for dilemmas and contradictions;The special geographical location and the activities of the sanctum condense the frustration and desire of the scholars in the dilemma of the imperial examination;the particularity of the Qinglou Pavilion causes multiple obstructions of the relationship between men and women;the road,as a hub of spatial transformation,is open,making the content and form of the dilemma more diverse.Pu Songling integrated characters and events through typical scenes to serve his "dilemma writing" and effectively present his creative ideas.Therefore,the setting of "dilemma" is not only to reflect reality,but also plays an important role in the narrative construction of the novel.The image of "rescue" in Strange Tales of Liaozhai is based on the premise of "presence",and then through the release of the predicament,constantly promote the development of the plot of the novel,and gradually deepen the ideological theme that the author wants to express.Behind the "dilemma writing" of Strange Tales of Liaozhai is the pervasive trauma of the author's failure to heal and the expectation of confirmation of his own value.Pu's life bears the weight of life.He witnessed the living conditions of theliterati at the bottom of the feudal period with his personal pain.At the same time,he also turned his attention to the predicament of the world.Under the concept of persuade and punish evil,he tried to make the world surpass the predicament and contains the emotions of the author to help the world.
