Chapter 165: A Great Reform of the Critics

On February 1, 1984, Govin once again Liu Deng's "Say to the World, What is Bright and Fair" in "Wen Wei Po" made many readers appreciate Govine's sharp teeth, so they also sighed with emotion

No wonder Govin is so famous

This guy not only has a brilliant literary talent, but also has a deep attainment in the field of thought.

Look at people's keen thinking, look at people's strict logic

At this time, when I saw Gowen's article again, those vulgarity and sharpness had been lightly ignored by the readers, who were more concerned with the facts and truth, and more concerned about what kind of shocking words this reckless young man would say this time

The same Gowen article also gave a few cold breaths to the critics who came up

Chen Feng and Ba Yi, who were openly slapped in the face, didn't talk about their red old faces, they were embarrassed.

And everyone else also has a trace of fear in their hearts, everyone values their own interests and their own reputation, if they are sneered at in the newspaper by an article by Gowen, if they are found faulty, then the reputation that has been accumulated with great difficulty will be ruined, and even if they are not singled out, they will cause a lot of trouble.

Just as Govin wrote in the article, "People are watching the sky, and everyone is responsible for their own actions", "The critics who intend to stand out for Chen Guanyu have died down before they have gone into battle, and most of the critics who have already published criticism of Govin in the newspaper have also become cautious and no longer dare to make the slightest move.

Of course, Chen Feng and Ba Yi, who were slapped in the face by Govyn, would not give up, otherwise how would they be mixed in the criticism world in the future, and how would they stay in the literary world?

So the two annoyed old comrades hurriedly began their counterattack in the newspaper.

But Gowen, who had already vented his anger, was no longer ready to respond to the two clowns, and he began to prepare for the last attack on the critics.

As I wrote above, Govin despised the pedantic and conservative nature of the critics

These people grasp this part of the discourse power in a certain way, "have a high influence in front of the reader", if they are not objective and unfair, it will inevitably hinder the development of literature.

Although Govin himself is not good at criticism and literary criticism, he has the memory of later generations and has read so many literary criticisms, film reviews, editorials, and art reviews......... I've never eaten pork and I've seen a pig run, and he always has a deeper understanding of comments than these people.

Literary criticism, as a part of literary activities, "naturally has a positive role, but if you keep observing the sun and don't know how to keep up with the times, then what role does it have?

Govin can't write reviews, just like he didn't know how to write editorials and didn't really write poetry at the beginning of his travels, but who said that if you don't know literary criticism and poetry creation, you can't write the theory of literary criticism, and you can't write poetry theory?

Who is he?

He's a traverser

If he wants to learn, if he wants to improve himself, with decades of historical memory, with so many broad horizons and forward-looking ideas, what can't he do? You must know that he is standing on the shoulders of countless giants who have emerged in the past few decades of history

Well" Although I don't understand literary criticism, in order to avoid being scratched by you people in the future, then I will reluctantly give you a reminder

Ge Wen didn't care about Chen Feng and Ba Yi, so naturally someone helped him to help.

Wang Meng, a writer who was already well-known in the literary world, was the "People's Editor-in-Chief" of the China Writers Association, vice chairman of the China Writers Association, and deputy secretary of the party group mentioned this incident in one of his articles, saying: "Govin is so interesting, a group of idlers demonize him in a routine way" I didn't expect to be demonized by him...,......... When the critics pushed him onto the runway, he backhanded the critics onto the show, and tragically, the critics had no experience in the catwalk at all, so the performance was rather restrained and "not a very qualified playmaker...,......,......"

Yu Hua, a newcomer in the literary world, posted an article saying, "Comrade Xiao Ge scolded well, there are indeed some people in the current critics who do not have basic professional qualities" to comment on a work only according to their own preferences and not according to artistic aesthetics! …”

At this time, Yu Hua was not the top-notch writer in the literary world in later generations, and at this time, his short story "Traveling Far Away" had just been published in the "Beijing Table" in the Qing Dynasty.

This later generation, which was regarded as a masterpiece of avant-garde realist works, "this novel that broke the style of previous literary realism and extensively absorbed the expression of Western modernization" and made bold innovations in terms of content and form was also criticized and attacked by some critics.

was attacked for innovation, and criticized for absorbing modern Western expressions, which made the fledgling Yu Hua convinced, so he resolutely stood up to support Gowen.

As early as after the publication of "The Country Teacher", he came out to praise it, and Ah Cheng, a rookie writer who became famous in the literary world because of "The King of Chess", openly supported Gowen in his article, he agreed with Gowen's judgment on "science fiction novels", and analyzed in detail the artistry and literature of the two articles "Country Teacher" and "The Sadder", and many readers who read Huanghuang's 23,000-word argumentation article couldn't help frowning.

Of course, there are also voices from the critics, and the critic Wu Liang commented on the deputy Liu of Wen Wei Po, saying that "Chen Guanyu is only a member of the critics, he cannot represent the critics, and his views and understandings are only his personal opinions, and have nothing to do with the critics." ”

Then Wu Liang commented on the polemic between Ge Wen and Chen Guanyu, he believed that "it doesn't matter whether Chen Guanyu is on the show or not, his key point is that he basically doesn't understand literature, he just writes, and he has not systematically studied the theory of literary criticism......... Chen Guanyu criticized Gewen for being reasonable in form, but in fact it was unreasonable, while Gewen refuted that Chen Guanyu was very unreasonable in form, but it was actually very reasonable. ”

In the midst of all this disturbance, readers found that Govin seemed to have disappeared all at once, and just as everyone heard the news from each other and explored what Govin was doing, Liu Deng's theoretical article of nearly 40,000 words on the first edition of Wen Wei Po occupied almost the entire page.

Just when the reader was dizzy with the dense typo," the author's name at the bottom of the article brought everyone up to spirit

Then they couldn't help but follow the title," and then they found a frontispiece under the title, well, I have to admit that the creation of this article is contrary to my usual creative thinking.

I have always believed that whether it is pure literature or popular literature, whether it is poetry or prose...... The biggest purpose of writing is for the reader.

Any work must move the reader, and only such a work is a good work.

A work that is not loved by readers and does not resonate with readers is a failed work, and as for the rest, the so-called commentary, "the so-called literature or popular science, that is secondary."

If you read this, I would like to say to the readers who have been supporting and encouraging Govin that this is not a work that can move you, and you can give up the rest of the content.

This is an article that explores the methods and theories of literary criticism, and this article is aimed at only those who are engaged in literary criticism, but only writers who are engaged in literary creation, so if you are reading this article, then please continue.

I think it is necessary for the current literary circles and critics to sit down and discuss literary criticism and literary criticism quietly, because the prosperity of literature is inseparable from all of us"Writers and critics are never hostile.

Therefore, for the development of the literary world and for readers to see more and better works, I think it is necessary to use an article to throw bricks and lead the way.

It's for remembering.

On July 26, 1980, the People's Daily published an editorial entitled "Literature and Art Serve the People and Socialism". It was this editorial that changed the old idea that "literature and art serve politics," and the new slogan in the literary and artistic circles was that literature and art serve the people and socialism. Perhaps serving the government is still a task in the literary and artistic circles, but what we can see is that serving the people is the deepest foundation

So the literary world has shone with a new light, yes, I'm talking about light scar literature, reflective novels, educated youth literature, root-seeking literature, documentary literature, avant-garde literature, and new realistic novels......... This is a spectacle that could not have been in the years before

However, the critics still seem to be resting on their laurels: "Literary criticism still seems to be influenced by the shadow of the political zhì standard, still being dominated by the political zhì, and still existing as a vassal of the political zhì, which I think is not normal."

I believe that literary criticism must break through the shackles of political and political shadows and establish norms that artistic standards and ideological standards agree on.

Literary criticism should also not ignore the various theories of literary criticism that have poured in from the West, from the closed department to the open department "to absorb the nourishment of foreign literary theories and other disciplines in order to enrich and transform the old methods of criticism."

We should expand the analysis of literary works from a single philosophical and political perspective to observe literature from various perspectives such as aesthetics, psychology, ethics, and anthropology, and replace the concept of mechanical rectification with the concept of organic rectification, "replacing the thinking of one-way and linear causal connection with multi-directional and multi-dimensional connections."

The blossoming of a hundred schools of thought in the literary world is inseparable from the critics, and we are waiting for the critics to catch up, and we are waiting for the day to come.

The commentary plot is basically over.

Some children's shoes say it's a failure, but I don't see it that way.

How can it be said to be a failure? From the very beginning, I didn't let go of this line, "The oppression of the critics has been rendering, just waiting for the protagonist to explode at this time" So you can say that the traitor's pen power is limited, but is it too much to say that it is a failure?

There is also a swear word for Govin in the article, just to highlight the image of a protagonist, which is a process of gradual fullness, a process from a flat to a rest.

A guy who has traveled less than a year, and you expect him to fully integrate into that era in no time? Completely gave up the past bar Hu Tian Haiti, Internet braggart and fart character?

Maybe in the future, Govin will be really calm and even black-bellied, but at this time, Ya is still a hot-blooded young man

Finally, I asked for all kinds of support, and this is the second day of the two shifts, right?.
