inheritance and innovation compared with the previous generation of literary artists.The second chapter classifies Lu Yuanfu’s prose according to the style classification.Firstly,the essay is divided

writing mostly uses white depictions to narrate,using a variety of depictions to portray rich and vivid characters.In terms of the overall character of the prose,In terms of language,the sentence

changing course of Lu Yuanfu’s national spirit.Secondly,explore Lu Yuanfu’s view of the world.In the early Qing Dynasty,under the circumstance that the old state had died and the foreign nationality was in charge of the government,the intellectuals were thinking about how to deal with the relationship with the Qing court.Lu Yuanfu did not strictly guard the " The boundary between the Han and other ethnic groups " like Wang Fuzhi and others,but chose to preserve the world through the preservation of Taoism.Finally,Lu Yuanfu’s consciousness of the common people is studied.The Ming Dynasty,accompanied by the emergence of capitalism,produced the idea of freedom and equality.Before this trend of thought developed,it met the change of dynasties.In the early Qing Dynasty,Neo-Confucianists who advocated the return of Confucianism suppressed this trend of thought almost to the end.Lu Yuanfu was one of the representatives of this trend.In his prose,he analyzed things with the backward concept of the superiority and inferiority,and tried to stabilize the social order by restoring the patriarchal society.This single retrogression,which rejected progressive ideas,delayed the dawn of the common people for hundreds of years.
