1. Narrative prose
Prose that mainly narrates people, events and scenes is called narrative prose.
As far as narrative is concerned, the events described in prose do not require complete plots, let alone twists and turns, and the requirements for narrative in novels are much higher than those in prose; In addition, prose needs to be full of emotion when it is narrated, and the emotion of the novel is mainly reflected by the characters, and the author does not need to express it clearly. As far as the author is concerned, the novel needs to strive to create typical characters, which are all fictional by the author. On the other hand, the characters in prose are cut and processed on the basis of real people and things, paying attention to the freehand description of characters.
Prose can be divided into note prose and writer prose.
Notes-based prose takes the development of events as a clue and emphasizes the narrative nature of events. It can be a story with a beginning and an end, such as "Peanut" by Xu Dishan, or it can be several fragments, such as "From Baicaoyuan to Santan Yinyue" by Lu Xun. The author's sincere feelings are poured into the narrative, which is the most remarkable difference from the novel narrative.
People-oriented prose, the whole article is people-centered. It often grasps the character characteristics of the characters, makes a rough outline, and emphasizes the basic temperament, personality and mental outlook of the characters, such as Mr. Fujino in Lu Xun's works. Whether the characters are real or not is the difference between them and novels.
4. Lyric prose
Prose mainly used to express the author's subjective feelings is called lyric prose. Emotion is the common feature of all prose, but compared with other prose, lyric prose is more emotional, imaginative and poetic.
Lyric prose mainly uses the methods of symbol, metaphor and personification to convey the author's feelings through external image description, so borrowing scenery to express emotion and expressing ambition are the most commonly used methods in this kind of prose.
3. Argumentative essay
Prose that mainly expresses opinions is called discussion prose. It is different from the general argumentative essay, based on facts and logic, and mainly based on literary images. This is a literary argumentative essay.
There are vivid images and strict logic; It is necessary to move people with emotion and convince them with reason; Blend form, emotion and reason in one furnace, and integrate political theory and literature and art. Lu Xun's essays and Tao Zhu's Style of Pine Trees are both typical essays.
