Achievement influence
Yu Dafu advocated that "literary works are autobiographical biographies of writers" in literary creation. Therefore, he often takes his personal life experience as the material of his novels and essays, and makes an undisguised outline of his thoughts, feelings, personality and life experiences in his works. The masterpiece of Yu Dafu's autobiographical novels is Sinking, in which Yu Dafu boldly describes the sex and psychology of men and women, and at the same time sends out "Motherland, Motherland! My death is all because of you! " "You're getting rich! Be strong! " You still have many children suffering there. As soon as this autobiographical novel was published, it immediately caused an uproar in the literary world of China. The younger generation, who was baptized by the May 4th Movement, found something that collided with their hearts from his novels, and those literati who dared not break with feudal morality also pointed their finger directly at Yu Dafu. In his autobiographical novels, Yu Dafu not only reflects the depression and depression of the lower intellectuals, but also reflects the sufferings of the people at the bottom of society from the perspective of intellectuals, showing sympathy and concern for the working people, such as "A Night of Spring Breeze and Burden Drunk".
Yu Dafu's Calligraphy (15) Yu Dafu's autobiographical novels mainly have the following characteristics: 1. The protagonists in the works are all lower-class intellectuals, living in poverty, so they are full of frustration and frustration. These depressed intellectuals were the "spare parts" of the society at that time, and the gray life of these protagonists also made the novel's style low. 2. Make a bold and frank psychological description in the novel. What is particularly criticized by critics is the novel's undisguised description of morbid and abnormal sexual psychology, which is unacceptable to Taoism in China. Zhou Zuoren was the first person to stand up and comment positively on Yu Dafu's novels. He believes that "although there are obscene elements in Sinking, there is no moral essence", so he thinks Sinking is a work of art. Write a novel in prose. Yu Dafu is an emotional figure, which also affects his novel creation. When writing a novel, he uses subjective ideas to write, and rarely takes into account the writing elements such as characters, plots and environment in the novel creation. Many subjective lyrical things are written in his works, especially the description of natural scenery, which is very delicate. This prosaic tendency of novels had a great influence on later writers. Yu Dafu's novel creation challenged the traditional moral concept, created the lyrical and romantic form of autobiographical novel, and had a far-reaching influence on a group of young writers at that time, forming a spectacular romantic trend of thought in China literature in the 1920s and 1930s. The artistic features of Yu Dafu's novels are: 1: autobiographical writing 2: lyrical structure of natural flow 3: description of morbid psychology and subconscious psychology. The autobiographical color in Yu Dafu's prose is "self-expression", which is autobiographical self-expression and the most frank and explicit self-expression. According to Yu Dafu, novels are autobiographical. "Modern prose is even more autobiographical." His own prose is based on this principle. He publicly revealed his life experiences, thoughts, feelings and hobbies, and revealed his beliefs, habits, personality and even illness to the world. With his own life experience and feelings, he concentrated on the spiritual depression of the younger generation under the oppression and suffocation of the old society, thus forming his own unique prose characteristics. This feature is the sentimental sentiment of the weak, the ideal of romantic youth awakening, and the tendency of anti-oppressing Democrats.

First, the characteristics of prose creation 1. The collection of early prose novels "Sinking" was published 192 1 10. Yu Dafu's collection of novels "Sinking" was published by Taitung Book Company. This is the first collection of novels published by Creation Society, which is listed as "The Third Collection of Creation Society" (the first book is Goddess, written by Guo Moruo; The second revolutionary philosophy, Zhu Zhu). His income includes three novels: Sinking, Moving South, Death of Silver Gray and a preface. Sink. Sinking is called "creating a generation of ethos" because of its "amazing material and bold description" (Cheng); It also aroused the opposition of feudal guardians and denounced it as "immoral literature". Early stage: (1920—1933). In the past ten years, he wrote 26 lyric essays and 60-70 essays, which showed his hopeful mood when he returned from Japan and his infinite disappointment after seeing the painful motherland, including his sentimental pessimistic thinking about the future of the revolution and his impassioned revolutionary and shouting radical theory.
Pictures of Yu Dafu's works (12). First of all, strongly expressing the writer's personality is the theoretical understanding of Yu Dafu's prose creation and his "heart of prose". In his prose, he described his thoughts and life details in detail, which effectively demonstrated his unique "autobiographical biography" style. Second, the melancholy and sentimentality subsided. Yu Dafu's prose, like novels, is different, and his melancholy and sentimental sentiment is deeply imprinted in his creation. Third, the self-dissected words are wanton, frank and enthusiastic. Fourth, the tone of this poem is thrilling. Besides, Yu Dafu's prose is an informal lyrical way to indulge himself. Yu Dafu's prose is full of his own voice with strong personality, full of emotional appeal of thrilling poetry, warm and frank, showing the depressed mood of a talented intellectual in a turbulent society without cover, showing a sad, melancholy, beautiful and meaningful scene. 2. Mid-term prose creation: (1933—1938). This period is the low tide of his thought. Because of the white terror of the Kuomintang, he embarked on the road of passive seclusion and pursued a backward "celebrity" style, staying in the mountains and rivers. This fully exposed his weakness as a petty-bourgeois intellectual who came out of the old feudal camp: weakness and compromise. However, we should also see that he hated reality and didn't want to go with the flow before he fled. 3. Late prose creation: (1938—1945). /kloc-in the spring of 0/938, he participated in the anti-Japanese propaganda work in the Third Hall of the Political Department. He fought with a pen, wrote many political articles, and inspired people to fight with his enthusiastic voice. The source of sentimental style in Yu Dafu's early prose creation: Second, the source, expression and significance of sentimental sentiment in Yu Dafu's prose 1, and the beauty of women was destroyed. Although Yu Dafu was extremely sad in his prose, he did not give up his pursuit of ideals. No matter when he is crushed by sadness or when he is almost in a depressed situation, there is always an ideal in his heart that tempts him. This ideal is not lofty and has no profound connotation, but for Yu Dafu, it has great charm of life and is the driving force of his struggle and creation. This is a woman's love. 1927 Yu Dafu wrote in his diary: "If I can get the love of Ms. Wang, I will be more creative in the future. Ah! Life is still worthwhile, and you can still get a little meaning. " (Research Data on Yu Dafu, Xiahuacheng Press, 1985, p. 55 1. Before that, Yu Dafu wrote many times in his diary: "All I ask is love", "If a beautiful woman can understand my pain, I would like to die." "If there is a woman who really loves me, no matter whether she is beautiful or ugly, I will die for her." Women are deified in Yu Dafu's works, and love is deified in Yu Dafu's consciousness and emotion. So as long as he writes about women, especially beautiful girls, his works are full of romantic poetry. On the boat, he met a "Chinese-Western mixed-race girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old". Her beauty made Yu Dafu describe her appearance, clothes, posture and the evaporated "fragrance" on her body in nearly 300 words. Finally, I couldn't help thinking, "The board on my head is where she once stood. Ah, if she can love me, ask me to make her happy in any way, and I will. Oh, compared with the love of a pure girl, what is the glory of Solomon that day? " Yu Dafu's sacred and wishful feelings for women, on the one hand, are of course the expression of "self" ideals, on the other hand, they have a bright light reflecting the discovery of the May 4th Movement. Zhou Zuoren once said in Human Literature that the discovery of women and children is the product of modern European civilization. For China during the May 4th Movement, praising and infatuating with women was not only the expression of modern consciousness, but also the most direct criticism of feudal ethics, because women were not regarded as tools or playthings in feudal norms, and they never had independent personal dignity. Therefore, Yu Dafu regards pursuing women as his ideal. Although this kind of behavior and artistic tendency do not have the attribute of "sublime" in strength and depth, the anti-feudal democratic consciousness is clearly visible. 2. In Yu Dafu's prose, there are two forms of strong sentimentality: decadence and hatred. Since life is boring and natural, I am also a waste-I can't succeed in my career and I can't get rid of depression. Yu Dafu simply indulged himself, munching a few dollars in his hand and getting drunk; Emotion and sexual desire can't be satisfied normally, so they peek at women, find prostitutes, listen to local prostitutes molesting guests, and want to go to brothels (see returning home, sentimental trip, returnees). Desperately vent their instincts and try to satisfy themselves in a morbid state. This kind of emotion and behavior is obviously negative, which is unhealthy in Yu Dafu's prose, but it is by no means reactionary, nor is it an emotional appeal incompatible with the trend of the times. Yu Dafu mainly vented the anguish of a young man who woke up from the shackles of feudal ethics and couldn't find a way out with this morbid state. Under this unhealthy color, the May 4th "Discovery of Man" still contains positive significance. In contrast, the positive significance of Yu Dafu's hatred caused by sentimentality is even more distinct. What does he hate? First of all, he hates society. In "An Open Letter to a Literary Youth", Yu Dafu exposed the darkness of society and the misfortune of the lower class with a cynical style and a sense of cynicism, and showed his hatred for society with great strength. From this hatred of society, Yu Dafu naturally lamented his untimely birth and expressed his dissatisfaction with his time. As he said in the famous novel Sink: "China, China, why aren't you strong!" In Yu Dafu's works, the times he lived in were the darkest, the worst, the most inhuman, the least interesting, the least valuable, and of course the most hateful. Here, this man, who was tortured by grief and had nowhere to escape, turned all his misfortunes, all his troubles and sorrows into this dark age, and made a complaint from a whining young man to an inhuman system, showing an obvious anti-imperialist and anti-feudal democratic tendency. Although this tendency can't be said to be profound, his bright attitude and strong emotions also paint this tendency with the color of active fighting. 3. The positive significance of Yu Dafu's sentimental sentiment is mainly manifested in two aspects: first, Yu Dafu's decadence and the specific expression of this decadence-sexual repression, are not only his own feelings, but also as a social problem. This kind of decadence and sexual depression was the general mentality of young people at that time, and Yu Dafu concentrated on this kind of "disease of the times" with his own feelings, thus bringing a sharp problem to history and society, so he was positive. Secondly, Yu Dafu's sentimentality and decadence contain a conscious challenge to the old feudal morality. As Guo Moruo said in Yu Dafu, "His bold self-exposure is a false storm of lightning to the literati hidden under the armor of thousands of years, which makes some fake scholars and fake talents angry." Why? It is precisely because of this clear truth that they feel the difficulty of fraud. "
