Wang Shuo is an unavoidable writer in the 1980 s and 1990 s,whose novel words and subject matter set off a great upsurge in the literary world at that time.From Wang Shuo personal growth through the background and the era of social transformation in the early years of the reform and opening up,discussed the characters reflected by the tragic,and by extension,to explore the tragic characters behind Wang Shuo's cultural standpoint contradiction,on the one hand,this kind of contradiction appears as its own position within the mass culture and elite culture position;On the other hand,it is the contradiction between the modernity of its writing and the base of traditional culture.Firstly,the relationship between character tragedy and courtyard space is demonstrated,and its influence on character tragedy is studied from the establishment and change of courtyard.Secondly,it demonstrates the relationship between character tragedy and social background,and studies the influence of social background on character tragedy from the perspective of specific political and economic system reform and ideological reform in the early stage of reform and opening up.In addition,it demonstrates the tragedy of the male protagonists in Wang Shuo's novels represented by the strong Lord.They grew up in the courtyard,experienced drastic social changes,changed from the newly rich people of the Republic to the late people in life,and faced with the double loss of physical and spiritual hometown,resulting in them becoming the zero remnant of modern society.Thirdly,this paper demonstrates the female tragedy in Wang Shuo's novels,and explores the concrete expression of the tragedy represented by two kinds of female characters,the savior of pure love and the lover.Finally,the author demonstrates the relationship between the characters' tragedy and the writer's cultural standpoint,and further explores the relationship between the characters in his novels and his cultural standpoint from the perspective of Wang Shuo's personal cultural standpoint contradiction.In a word,the establishment and change of the courtyard and the social background of a specific period caused the contradiction between Wang Shuo's personal cultural standpoint,which is embodied in the contradiction between mass culture and elite culture in his heart,and reflected in his works as the contradiction between modern writing and the basis of traditional culture.When this contradiction through the specific figure shows,it has led to a hooligan to fit into society and become the latecomer of life and the zero the rest of modern society,the female characters as a male under the perspective of female characters,from the beginning only as a kind of "scale" and "tool",their tragedy is self-evident.The tragedy of characters in Wang Shuo's novels has its own reasons for its emergence and development,from which we should not onlysee its value in expressing the struggle of a generation of young people and enriching the diversity of contemporary literature,but also recognize its decadent and negative color and avoid it.
