One of the biggest characteristics that distinguishes Weeds from other works of Lu Xun is its profound philosophy and symbolism. Not satisfied with the general gossip or lyric prose at that time, but endowed the philosophy of life realized from reality and life experience with a beautiful form and created a unique lyric prose poem.
Extended data:
Creative background:
In the early 1920s, the writer Lu Xun lived in Beijing under the rule of the Northern Warlords. Lu Xun, who was extremely depressed, was depressed at that time, but his pursuit of ideals was still disillusioned. This collection of poems truly records the author's thoughts and feelings of continuing to fight after the split of the new culture United front, but feeling lonely and exploring progress in hesitation.
Writing purpose:
The author's purpose is to enlighten people's thinking, so he didn't work hard on lyricism, but mainly used images to express a philosophy. The method of narration and discussion is adopted. First, ask this question: "What is the most powerful thing in the world?" Then, get down to business and answer this question with special and general examples, which shows that grass and seeds are the most powerful in the world. Finally, it is pointed out that the power of grass lies in its two outstanding characteristics:
First, it regards life as the source of strength. It is perseverance, perseverance, "long-term resistance" and will never stop until it reaches its goal.
Second, treat all difficulties and setbacks as exercise for yourself, and never sigh pessimistically. If we link the vitality of Weeds with the political background at that time through the words "long-term war of resistance", it is not difficult to see why the author called for the vitality of Weeds.
Because the conception of prose is gradually deepened, it is very hierarchical to read, which is neither straightforward nor simple, so that the author's theme becomes a dull and empty sermon, and the author's ideological tendency is not completely hidden, so it is difficult to understand and elusive to read.
