Kong Yiji's Writing Characteristics

Keywords: structure; Description; Language; Write tears with "laughter"

"Kong Yiji" profoundly exposes feudal culture and feudal thoughts with minimalist pen and ink, and it is also inseparable from revolution and revealing reality. It is of great significance to the persecution of scholars by authoritarian education in social reality, and accuses the darkness, significance and revolutionary value of the imperial examination system in the old society. At the same time, Lu Xun also reflected the decay of feudal society and Kong Yiji's ingenious conception.

First, the narrative angle is exquisite and the structure is rigorous.

The novel is narrated in the first person, which can not only concentrate on pen and ink, but also describe Kong Yiji's miserable life with a scene (Xianheng Hotel) and a pair of eyes (the waiter's eyes), and also make the story more vivid and touching, which is more real than any other narrative angle.

Second, the description is vivid and vivid, and the characters are vivid.

Kong Yiji was a lower-class intellectual in Luzhen, south of the Yangtze River in the late Qing Dynasty. He is a typical old intellectual who was poisoned by feudal thoughts and died. He is a victim of the feudal imperial examination system and a typical feudal literati image that Mr. Lu Xun tried to portray in the decline of feudal society. He studied hard for half his life and was keen on the imperial examination. He exhausted his youth in the "Four Books and Five Classics" and was reduced to begging.

1. By describing Kong Yiji's appearance and clothes, he reveals his special identity and lazy living habits.

He "drinks and wears a gown standing", which is very contradictory. Standing and Drinking shows that he lives in poverty and is down and out, and his economic situation and social status are the same as those of the short coat gang. Kong Yiji's "gown" is dirty and torn, and it is neither washed nor mended for a long time, which shows that he is poor nor lazy, and even refuses to wash or mend his clothes.

2. Reveal Kong Yiji's tragic experience through portrait description.

Kong Yiji's pallor is a sign of not having enough to eat-he is often half hungry and half full, so there is no color in his face; "There are often some scars between wrinkles", which is a sign of frequent humiliation-a shame mark left after being beaten for stealing due to livelihood problems; A Shaggy White Beard is a record of years, a symbol of poverty and a reflection of his resistance to society.

3. Show the inner world of the characters by describing their behaviors and actions.

Kong Yiji's behavior described in the novel is incisive. The first time was when the short coat gang stood outside the cabinet and drank. In order to show off his money in front of the short coat gang, he used a bowl of wine to "show off" and "despise" a short coat gang with only four pence, but "squeezed out nine pence", squeezing out the money one by one, pretending to be calm and not answering. It's really ridiculous. The word "pai" vividly reveals his smug inner world.

4. Through personalized language description, express the distinctive character of the characters.

To sum up, languages in Kong Yiji can be roughly divided into three categories. The first category is "warm two bowls of wine and ask for a plate of fennel beans" that often come to the hotel to drink. This language shows his character of drinking and drinking well; The second is what the drinker said when he mocked him for stealing from others. This language shows his arrogant, pedantic and self-deceiving character; The third category is that the children in the neighborhood hear the laughter of the hotel and come to watch the fun. When Kong Yiji gave them fennel beans to eat, he said, "No more, no more! how much is it? Not much. "
