Wang Anyi was born in Nanjing in 1954.After her first birthday,she moved to Shanghai with her mother Ru Zhijuan and grew up in Shanghai.Shanghai is the city where Wang Anyi grew up and is an important background for Wang Anyi's literary creation.Wang Anyi has officially published his first novel in 1978.She has been engaged in literary creation for more than 40 years and has become an evergreen tree in contemporary Chinese literary circles.Since the reform and opening up,along with the development of urbanization,urban literature focusing on writing urban life and urban residents has gradually attracted attention.Wang Anyi created a large number of literary works related to Shanghai,which naturally attracted the attention of the critics.This article selects Wang Anyi's prose for writing personal experiences and realist urban literature as the research objects,and deeply analyzes the different urban experiences presented by the writer in the two texts.The fictional novels focus on the description of the "knowable" urban experience.This article attempts to conduct a comparative study of Wang Anyi's two texts,so as to obtain the complete urban experience of the writer,and deeply analyze the deep motivation behind different urban experiences,and explore the identity consciousness of the writer.Looking at the current research results of research on Wang Anyi and her literary works,the author found that there are many studies on the writer's literary works and identity.The academic community's attention to Wang Anyi mainly focuses on her novels,especially the urban literature related to Shanghai that she has created.Previous scholars have done a lot of research work,but Wang Anyi's prose is often used as a supplement to the writer's life experience and growth experience.The academics' attention to Wang Anyi's urban perception is often limited to realist novels,and lack of urban experience for writing different prose and novels attention.It is true that Shanghai city has both its knowable side and its unknowable side.Wang Anyi is limited by the style of realism,writing a knowable city in the novel,and leaving the unknowable side of the city to some prose creation.Based on the text,this article conducts in-depth discourse analysis.On the basis of previous studies,this article focuses on the gap between Wang Anyi's prose and fiction,trying to clarify the different urban experiences in Wang Anyi's prose writing and realism novels.This article is divided into three chapters to focus on Wang Anyi's urban experience and the identity consciousness behind it.The introduction explains the origin,research status and research space of this article.The first chapter focuses on the prose of Wang Anyi's prose,and analyzes the "unknown" urban experience presented in the "prose" : the urban "maze" observed from the ground perspective,the urban experience that changes in time and space,and the nothingness city history experience.The second chapter takes Wang Anyi's representative urban literature as the object,and analyzes the "knowable" urban experience presented in her novels: the omniscient urban space and daily life observed from a bird's eye perspective are the core of the city's constant change and the experience of the city's knowable history.The third chapter explores the identity consciousness behind Wang Anyi's two different urban experiences.The "unknown" urban experience points to the identity of the writer "outside household".The "knowable" urban experience is dominated by realism,and the reader is reading The identity given to the writer "Shanghainese" in China,"outdoor households" and "Shanghainese" together constitute Wang Anyi's identity paradox.The conclusion part summarizes the previous article,and puts forward the unresolved problems of this article.
