An Interpretation of SHEN Cong-wen's West-Hunan Novels

Gui Rang

Abstract

The author holds that, in both the canonical and non-canonical aspects, SHEN's West-Hunan novels spiritually fall heir to China's ancient romance, whose unique attention to the divinity of human life, along with the writer's rational perspective toward it, manifests itself in SHEN's works, thus accomplishing a historic integration of ancient tradition and modern life.
