The Study Of Ba Jin's Literature Preface And Postscript

Ba Jin attaches great importance to the writing of the preface and postscript,and in his lifelong literary creation career,he wrote a lot of prefaces for his literary works.As a style,his preface and postscript has a very comprehensive function.In the preface,the author introduces the relevant situation of the work to guide the reader to enter the text reading;interprets the creative intention,reveals the theme,and clarifies the relationship between literary creation and actual experience,which help the reader to accurately grasp the connotation of the work;and clarifies the misreading,bringing it close to the writer's original intention and the textual center.These prefaces are the further extension of the work,enriching the content of the text.At the same time,Ba Jin chooses a variety of stylistic styles to express himself,such as epistolary,prose poetry,lyrical essays.His prefaces mix narrative lyric with descriptions and argument,with the deep personal sentiment throughout,which enhance the expression effect,infect readers,and expand the expressive power of the preface and the literary aesthetic value of the preface.Despite different discourse methods,unlike other writers' prefaces,Ba Jin's preface has a clear sense of dialogue unlike other writers' prefaces.The "conversational style" is the deep inner discourse mode of Ba Jin's preface.Ba Jin expects readers to have a strong desire to communicate.He always consciously takes care of the reader's reading experience,pays attention to dialogue with the readers in the preface,and locates the readers in the mind and order,and forms an interaction with different readers.When the preface and the post are faced with readers and self from different eras,the synchronic and diachronic statements are also different.Ba Jin's literary creation sequence inherits and develops the traditional preface and post in the stylistic function and form,which provides a reference for the modern literature preface writing.
