A Study Of The Specificity Of The 1980s View Of Plot In Chinese Stream-of-consciousness Novels

This paper studies the differences between the plots of western stream of consciousness novels and those of Chinese stream of consciousness novels in the new period.Stream-of-consciousness novels came into being at the end of the 19 th century and the beginning of the 20 th century,and it not only changed Western literature,but also made Chinese novels undergo great changes.The remarkable sign is that the narrative core of the novel has turned from describing the external objective world to excavating the inner world of human beings.With the emergence of this shift,the creative viewpoint of Chinese novel in the new period has really discovered "human beings" and become "human literature".The acceptance of western stream of consciousness novels in China is not accomplished overnight,nor is it simply "transplanted".It has undergone a long process.Under the influence of Chinese native culture,the stream of consciousness novels have changed in many aspects,showing Chinese characteristics different from western stream of consciousness literature.Due to the origin of Chinese novels and readers’ acceptance,Chinese novels have always had the tradition of attaching importance to plots,which has not been completely abandoned in the process of Chinese writers drawing lessons from the techniques of stream of consciousness.Therefore,Compared with western stream of consciousness novels,Chinese stream of consciousness novels show stronger plots.The relative lag of the development of Chinese psychology leads to the inaccuracy of Chinese writers in grasping the essence of the stream of consciousness.Therefore,it is difficult to focus on the unconscious or even unconscious of characters and describe pure consciousness like western stream of consciousness novels.Influenced by the spirit of practical rationality in traditional culture and the cultural quality of writers,the inner consciousness flow of characters in Chinese stream of consciousness novels is more dominated by rationality and their consciousness activities are more rational.China’s emphasis on the social function of literature makes Chinese stream of consciousness novels rarely show people’s depression,decadence or even abnormal psychology.On the contrary,they are willing to build a healthy and progressive soul and create a positive social atmosphere.The main body of this paper is divided into five parts.The first chapter mainly introduces the introduction and acceptance of stream-of-consciousness novels and stream-of-consciousness theory in the new era,and how Chinese writers and theorists view and accept stream-of-consciousness novels and stream-of-consciousness theory.The second chapter sorts out the stream-of-consciousness works created during the peak period of stream-of-consciousness creation in the Chinese literary world,and what main stream-of-consciousness techniques are used in these works.The third chapter begins to analyze the differences between Chinese and Western stream-of-consciousness novels.The first is that the Chinese stream-of-consciousness novels contain rational stream of consciousness.Different from the Western stream of consciousness novels in which the characters are completely unaffected by reason and the plot flows extremely jumpy,the plot flow of the Chinese stream of consciousness novels includes the flow of rationality,and it is also carried out through a specific analysis of the two streams of consciousness works in China and the West.elaboration.The fourth chapter specifically analyzes that Chinese stream-of-consciousness novels have the characteristic of attaching importance to plot compared with Western stream-of-consciousness novels because of the influence of Chinese traditional culture.Western stream-of-consciousness novels try to downplay the plot.Although Chinese writers try not to focus on describing the plot when creating,but influenced by traditional Chinese culture and the acceptance of Chinese readers,compared with Western stream-of-consciousness novels,their works have the emphasis on plot.Features.The fifth chapter introduces the influence of the "Sinicization" of Chinese stream of consciousness novels,which not only enriched the literary aesthetic concept,but also exerted an important influence on the later avant-garde novels and whisper novels in the Chinese literary circle,and contributed to the prosperity and development of the Chinese literary circle.his own strength.
