On the occasion of Aragon's centenary birthday, people still have different opinions on him. When people in literary circles recall Aragon, they all praise his concern and cultivation of literary youth. At that time, Aragon always attracted a large number of literary youth around. It was recalled that just after his first novel was published, Aragon called him and talked enthusiastically about his views on the work. There are many young people who receive this kind of care.
Aragon is an unusually prolific writer. Over the past half century, he has published more than 1 kinds of large and small works. These works show different tendencies and characteristics. When Aragon was young, he published a surreal collection of poems, Often Keep Moving. Many critics use the name of this collection of poems to describe his attitude of cultivating on the road of literature. This prolific writer who joined the army twice made indelible contributions to war and literature. Therefore, after his death, some people in the French press called him "Hugo of the 2th century".
As a major founder and representative of surrealism, one of the two or three major schools of contemporary French literature, Aragon is still highly praised by the French literary world today.

In this regard, the French ideological circle has both praise and fall, and there is no agreement. Praisers believe that this is the golden age of Aragon's works. With a large number of realistic works, he profoundly reveals the dark side of society and eulogizes the masses as the backbone of society. The disparager can't help feeling sorry for this, and often takes "although ……" as the beginning of the comment. There are also pure scholars who believe that only by eliminating the old literary history view and the old tune of political debate such as surrealism, realism, * * * productism and Stalinism can Aragon's literary genius be truly discovered.
In any case, no one in contemporary French cultural circles denies Aragon's historical position. People commented: "No matter who wants to know the history of the 2th century, they can't bypass Louis? Aragon's works. He is one of the three or four greatest writers of our time. "
