Cao Wenxuan is a representative writer of the fourth generation of children’s literature in China,an academic researcher,and he is a Chinese teacher of Peking University.Although Cao Wenxuan,who is multi-tasking,is widely known as a "children’s literature writer",this article will focus on the juvenile stage of transition from children to adults.The juvenile stage is a very crucial transition period in life.The focus on juvenile issues is conducive to promoting the healthy growth of young people and building a harmonious society.The main characters of Cao Wenxuan’s growth novels are mostly teenagers.This is also a voice for the neglected youth groups in contemporary children’s literature in China.Cao Wenxuan writes the story of juvenile growth in a unique style.Character image.The writer’s description of this group of "problem teenagers" is based on personal life experience and actual life,and it is also a projection of reality,which has aroused people’s attention to this group and has guiding significance for reality.Taking care of "problem teenagers" from the perspective of literature is also the deep ultimate concern that literature should have.This article is based on Cao Wenxuan’s growth novels and theories about growth novels,uses textual reading,literature research,and other methods to refer to theories such as psychology and personality types to define and classify "problem teenagers".To explore the uniqueness of its image writing,and to examine dialectically the value and shortcomings of the "problem teenagers" image in Cao Wenxuan’s novels.The article is divided into five sections.The introduction mainly summarizes the current research status of Cao Wenxuan’s novels and "problem teenagers",and defines the concept of "problem teenagers" in combination with psychology,sociology and pedagogy.The first chapter is based on MBTI and the analysis of the book Personality Disorders and Debugging written by Randy Larson and David Bath who are the famous American psychologiste,with reference to its classification basis.Relevant knowledge,such as type theory,classifies and analyzes the "problem teenagers" that mainly appear in the novel.And use the "dimensional view" to treat the "problem teenagers" in the novel as a person with different degrees of personality disorder.Dimensional view believes that each obstacle is a continuum,one end of which is normal,and the other end is a serious defect or loss of function.Therefore,the availability of individuals is only a difference in degree.The "problem teenagers" in Cao Wenxuan’s novels is an individual between normal and extreme.The second chapter mainly analyzes the particularity of the image writing of "problem teenagers" from the special cause and growth path of "problem teenagers".Among them,the causes are analyzed from three aspects: era,family and education.The era background of the growth of teenagers in Cao Wenxuan’s novels spanned from the 1960 s to the beginning of the 21 st century,including a special period of ten years and the rapid development of urbanization brought about by reform and opening up and the market economy.With the change of the era,the development of culture is also affected,and the traditional family culture model and social education environment are gradually changing,which have a subtle influence on the growth of contemporary teenagers.In addition,the growth paths of teenagers also mostly follow the law of "separating from the collective-the enlightenment of the guide-going through suffering to achieve growth".Such a narrative pattern formed Cao Wenxuan’s growth writing style.Cao Wenxuan’s sympathy for the growth of "problem teenagers" flowed from the brushstrokes.These also originated from the writer’s memories and imaginations based on his own growth experience,and on this basis there is more profound thinking.The third chapter looks at the value and shortcomings of the "problem teenagers" image mainly from a dialectical perspective.In terms of ideology,he affirmed Cao Wenxuan’s attention and encouragement to special groups,discovered the beautiful qualities of young people,and gave them warmth and strength.On the other hand,it is pointed out that the simplification of the use of materials and the symbolization of female images are problems for writers in artistic creation.Finally,I hope that the writers will break out of the creative model,present more excellent works to the public,and explore more possibilities for juvenile literature.The conclusion mentiones Cao Wenxuan’s contribution as a children’s writer,and summarizes Cao Wenxuan’s overall situation and writing style of "problem teenagers",showing the uniqueness of his aesthetic and compassion consciousness to literary works,as well as the Realistic guidance significance.At the same time,it also points out the problem of writer’s model writing,and looks forward to the writers writing more excellent works with more vitality and appeal.
