Absence of National Spirit:A New Exploration of Q’s Personality Characteristics

The conclusion about Q’s personality characteristics is principally his spiritual victory.However,this goes against his active,energetic,steadfast behaviors.Another view holds that there is contradiction in his personality:he lacks a consistent personality,and so the novel Q’s Biography committed an obvious and severe error in personality creation.In fact,Q’s personality does have consistency,namely,a citizen who has deleted the national awareness.This property not only embodies his obedience towards the feudalist ethical culture represented by bureaucratic and robbery spirit,but also reflects the instinct of his life style.Spiritual victory is merely a way he takes to adapt to the real life,not the central part of his personality.That is,Q’s Biography does not make the mistake of personality inconsistence.
