Yang Zhensheng(1890-1956)was a writer and educator who grew up rapidly in the May Fourth Period and responded to reality with literary creation,educational work and literary practice.Compared with the writers of the same period,his creation process is very short,leaving only a few works,but it runs through the whole modern literary context.After the founding of New China,Yang Zhensheng still took an active part in literary creation and education.For such a "May Fourth" enterprising general who made great achievements in both literary creation and educational work,few researchers put Yang Zhensheng’s new literary creation and educational work throughout his life together.However,after breaking through the barriers of literary creation and education,it can be seen that after Yang Zhensheng entered the literary world with novel creation,he went through a road from simply reflecting social problems to educational practice and reflection in reality.In Yang Zhensheng’s short and rich life,the foundation of new education and the edification of patriotism became the starting point of Yang Zhensheng’s metacognition and thought.As Yang Zhensheng went to Peking University to study,actively participated in the "May Fourth" movement,one by one experience laid solid and completed his realistic spiritual enlightenment road.This has laid a solid foundation for his life attitude and literary style,and even his future achievements in the Chinese literary and educational circles.Novels are the starting point of Yang Zhensheng’s entry into the literary world,and also the beginning of his response to the reality with literary creation.On the whole,his novels not only have the writing of Shouting aloud to attract the attention of social healing,but also have the writing of unique artistic characteristics.Among them,Yu Jun is the most abundant text.In the novel,Lin Yicun seems to have a big discussion about education without the plot,which contains Yang Zhensheng’s preliminary conception of the blueprint of education.Subsequently,Yang Zhensheng was no longer satisfied with arousing the attention of social healing from the novel but hoped to complete his educational concept in educational practice.Yang Zhensheng’s educational commentary throughout his half-life was a concentrated reflection and reflection on the social problems based on the social status quo in addition to the creation of new literature,which could be regarded as a search for the social "outlet".A concern for reality is embedded in the universal educational reflection.In addition,Yang Zhensheng’s concern for reality is also reflected in his thinking on literature and art.Literature and art bear the responsibility of cultivating the new people.Literary and artistic creation should be integrated and coherent,blossoming at the base of national forms,while paying attention to the role of education and edification.It was a question he ruminated on beyond his literary and educational work. |
