As one of the human situations,"loneliness" has never been short of explorers and questioners.Wang Anyi is one of the few writers who has been paying close attention to it.Wang Anyi's novel creation is prolific and changeable,which is closely linked with the trend of the times.Furthermore,her writing of loneliness shows a changeable trend,which has realized the transformation from thin to thick,from simple to profound.Unlike most writers,after a long period of painstaking exploration,Wang Anyi finally regards loneliness as a universal and fundamental survival dilemma: life is lonely,loneliness is the essence of human existence,which is a kind of fate.Wang Anyi also struggled and confronted with the mainstream from the beginning,and eventually fell into a peaceful,happy acceptance,inhabiting loneliness,and drawing strength from it,which has a certain philosophical significance and humanistic concern.Based on a large number of Wang Anyi's literary texts,this paper will discuss the lonely writing in her novel creation comprehensively and systematically.This paper consists of three parts: introduction,body and conclusion.The introduction first explains the origin of the problems studied in this paper.Looking at Wang Anyi's novel creation as a whole,this paper combs out the lonely writing throughout and gives a brief introduction.Then,a comprehensive analysis of Wang Anyi's research status,and pointed out the shortcomings of lonely writing.On the basis of the above two aspects of research review,the author will put forward the basic ideas and significance of the study.It is a meaningful exploration to study Wang Anyi's novels from the perspective of lonely writing,and it is also a beneficial supplement to her shortcomings.The text is divided into four chapters:In the first chapter,on the basis of a comprehensive survey of Wang Anyi's novels,the lonely images in her novels are generally summarized into three categories.This chapter is divided into three sections.The first section focuses on Wang Anyi's image of lonely people living in grey areas.It takes the time axis as a clue,roughly takes "1985" and "21st century" as two stages.Wang Anyi gradually realizes the exploration from individual loneliness to human universal loneliness through writing.The second section explores the characters in emotional loneliness,which is discussed from two types of lonely images: the lack of consanguinity and kinship and the unrelated emotional entanglement.The third section focuses on the image of lonely people in the passage of time,taking the 1990 s as the time node.Before that,Wang Anyi's novel expresses the ruthless loneliness of the passage of time by sighing the lonely people whose time is fleeting.After that,with the rapid development of mechanized commercial civilization,Wang Anyi created a series of loners in theretrospect of time by recasting the old times.The second chapter focuses on the reasons for Wang Anyi's loneliness in writing,which are discussed from three aspects: the life experience of growing lonely,the influence of Buddhism and Christian philosophy of life,and the influence of materialized commercial society.The third chapter analyses the connotation of Wang Anyi's loneliness consciousness in her novels.By comparing with the loneliness writing in Lu Xun's,Xu Dishan's and Jia Pingwa's novels,it not only shows the changing track of Wang Anyi's loneliness consciousness in different periods,but also highlights the connotation of Wang Anyi's loneliness consciousness,that is,when she confronts loneliness,she is able to confront spiritual loneliness without success,and when she confronts life tra Helplessness,hesitation and calmness after fruitless confrontation with cultural loneliness.Despite the sadness,pain,helplessness,rejection and resistance in his loneliness writing,more of them are actively dispelling the pain caused by loneliness,instead,they are dispelling all kinds of loneliness in their lives in a calm and calm way.In such a comparison,Wang Anyi,Lu Xun,Xu Dishan and Jia Pingwa have their own unique aesthetic connotation in their lonely writing.The last part is the conclusion of the article.The value of Wang Anyi's lonely writing in literary history lies not only in her portrayal of a group of lonely people and her contribution to the contemporary literary world of individual life and destiny,and her struggle with her own hardships,but also in her concern for the pain of spiritual loneliness,life tragedy loneliness and cultural loneliness caused by her lonely experience of individual life and her tireless efforts.Her solitary writing is undoubtedly approaching to the essence of life and human existence,and has a broad humanistic concern.The significance of Wang Anyi's solitary writing in literary history and its aesthetic value are highlighted.
