In the Tang and Five Dynasties' notebook novels,the concept of "writing preference" represents the relatively fixed ideological content,the main theme of the writer's insistence on writing under the influence of social fashion,the confusion and struggle encountered by himself,and the changes of the times,as well as a collection of topics,emotional sustenance and symbols.It contains a variety of aesthetic trends,showing rich aesthetic forms through specific novel content.In the middle and late Tang Dynasty,the style of novel was able to give full play to its own advantages,reflecting the social reality,but also condensing the individual differences of the novel writers' aesthetics,and also including the common preference of the writers when they resorted to writing.In the text of the novel,there are four types of writing preferences and aesthetic elements,including the aesthetic characteristics of technique preference,the aesthetic expression of character and foreign object mentality,the aesthetic culture of "home"-related content writing,the writing preference of literati anecdotes,and the aesthetic mentality.Most of the cases are combined.These four types of writing preferences can be divided into two categories according to the writer's different perspectives.The preference of writing skills is closely related to the Tang Dynasty's note-taking novels,which are anti-historical and biographical and achieve independent stylistic existence,which more reflects the writer's observation of the details of the text;while for the other three types of writing preferences,the writer focuses on the expression of the content,turning the perspective to the aesthetic culture of the middle and late Tang Dynasty and the daily life of the Tang people.Tang people pay attention to the writing skills of novels,especially in designing the environment and details of characters' clothing in novels.There are traces of the novelist's meticulous polishing of characters and plots everywhere in the story.The Tang Dynasty is committed to seeking a balance between authenticity and poetry with concise brushwork.The preference of writing content reflects this aesthetic feature of Tang novels.The presentation of aesthetic features is inseparable from the evolution of aesthetic thoughts.Before and after the mid-Tang Dynasty,the social style changed,and this period became a period when aesthetic thoughts were more active since the Tang Dynasty,and the preference for writing novels was inevitably related to the aesthetic transformation of the same period.
