A Study Of Western Imagination In Zhang Xianliang’s Novels

The imaginative expression of the West in Zhang Xianliang’s novels is fundamentally an allegorical structure to express oneself,a process of thinking,constructing and identifying oneself on the basis of "gazing" at the other.Under the influence of the picture,there is a conscious pursuit of "modernity".Pay attention to the western imaginative expression of Zhang Xianliang’s text,and conduct more in-depth exploration and thinking with the logical structure of "what,what,and why".Starting from textual phenomena,this paper sorts out how and type of Zhang Xianliang’s Western imagination is presented.The Western imagination written by Zhang Xianliang is a reflection and imaginative make up for what he lacks in the two basic levels of emotion and material,and this is the standard.Three main types of imagination are summarized: free imagination of love,imagination of advanced objects and exotic imagination.These imaginary presentations are self-utopian discourse expressions based on the expression of the other,and involve the content of the other and the self in two dimensions.The expression of the other is fluid.In order to serve the central purpose of self-utopian construction,there must be a gap between its Western imaginary description and Western reality,and the attitude of the imaginary subject to the West will also change.This changing path in Zhang Xianliang’s text Basically from worship to remodeling.Western imagination is based on the act of gazing at the other.With the help of the interactive viewing method of staring,the self-identification and construction are completed in watching the other.Instead,it restricts and influences selfconstruction by its own prescriptiveness,and identification gaze as a strategy can reduce the power of gaze and create a more equal communication platform between subject and object to achieve new self-construction.There are many carriers that can be relied on to express the ideal of self-construction.The most fundamental reason why Zhang Xianliang chose the carrier of "Western" is that it can satisfy the expression of the pursuit of "modernity".
