Qin Mu-writing characteristics
The expression of Qin Mu's prose has no fixed format, which is natural, fluent and exquisite, flexible in writing, fantastic in association, open-minded and naturally expressive of feelings. One of the characteristics of Qin Mu's prose is that it is far-reaching and philosophical. Praising the new China and new life and flogging the ugly phenomenon is a main thread running through his prose works, and it is never boring when expounding opinions and explaining reasons.
Qin Mu is different from other contemporary writers in that his prose has a wide range of topics, rich knowledge, talks about the past and the present, and abundant circumstantial evidence, which shows a deep foundation of life and knowledge. Land is one of the most representative works. The author starts from Kan Kan's experience in history and daily life, taking the land as the object, sometimes showing the features of the new era, sometimes tracing the painful history, sometimes praising the builders and defenders of the new society, sometimes writing about the ancient frontier defense ceremony, and sometimes extending the brushwork to the atrocities of the colonists. From ancient times to the present, from plants and animals to human feelings, to stories and legends, to modern science and technology, they are all included in one essay, providing readers with an informative history textbook.
