Chapter 81 The world is so big, there is more to it than just things(2/2)
At this point, a smile appeared on his face, "If that's the case, wouldn't it be better if we removed the word 'scar'?"
If the "scars" are removed, wouldn't that be "literature"?
The frail young man was slightly startled, and then understood what Lin Chaoyang meant.
Literature is inherently open to all rivers, so why does it need scar literature to pull a big cart?
Under literature, it would be a bit far-fetched to insist that scar literature is inclusive of everything.
At this time, the audience below also understood what Lin Chaoyang meant, and a burst of laughter broke out in the large dining room.
The frail young man reluctantly wanted to fight back, but Zhang Youhua clicked on a female student who raised her hand the highest in the crowd.
"Xu... Hello Comrade Lin Chaoyang, I am from the Department of Philosophy of the National People's Congress. I just finished reading your "Little Shoes" two days ago. The novel is very well written, but I have a question about the concept revealed in the novel.
In your novels, you seem to have too much trust in human nature, especially rural society, which always seems to be tender.
But according to my life experience, this does not seem to be the case.
When we look at the works of Chinese writers after the May Fourth Movement, including works by Mark Twain, Faulkner, Dickens, and Hugo, they are all full of profound touches that touch people's hearts.
In comparison, works like "Little Shoes" seem a bit thin in terms of ideological core."
The girl's tone was not as harsh as the weak boy's, but the content was very sharp. In one sentence, she pointed out what may be the most criticized part of the novel "Little Shoes" by contemporary readers.
Readers of their generation grew up reading Lu Xun and Ba Jin, and are convinced of the evil nature of human nature. The warmth and sunshine shown in "Little Shoes" are incompatible with the development direction of Chinese literature in recent decades.
"A writer's creation is mainly based on personal life experience. If you are Xiangzi, it may be difficult to understand Tagore's state of mind when he wrote "The Birds".
The core of "Little Shoes" is positive and sunny. Such stories may be rare in real life, but they are by no means unheard of. Just like when you look at Kong Yiji, you know that there must be such a person in the world, but he is definitely not
All people are like this.
Whether it is Eastern literature or Western literature, there are works that focus on describing human nature and exposing darkness, and there should also be works that pursue light and praise truth, goodness and beauty.”
When Lin Chaoyang said this, the girl's expression seemed dissatisfied and she was about to open her mouth to refute.
At this time, I heard Lin Chaoyang say: "In fact, the world is so big, there is more to it than the east and the west? The same is true for literature."
As soon as these words came out, the pattern was revealed.
The audience burst into applause!
Chapter completed!
