theme
I. Tragic theme
The tragic feeling of the gold powder family and its atmosphere are very strong. Here, the most concentrated and internal theme is the theme of tragedy, but in fact it is boredom with the nothingness and despair of the world. For example, in the eighty-third time, Mrs. King said, "Everything in life is empty. It's really tasteless. " ?
In fact, this is the author's expression of his nihilistic outlook on life through the mouth of characters, and the best expression of Zhang Henshui's tragic outlook on life is his words in the author's preface to the Golden Powder Family.
He wrote, "I have been taught by people in society since I was 30 years old. I hope I can be a monk on the road with a stick and a bowl. Sometimes I care about my children, but I forget them. Now that my son is dead, I deeply feel that life is like this. What is wealth? What is fame and fortune? Becoming a monk is also very profound. This is a novel based on my ideas. So "Golden Powder Family" started like this and ended like this. "
The beginning and end of "Golden Powder Family" are full of this sense of despair and nothingness about life. ?
Second, the consciousness of the times.
However, in this work, the new modern consciousness of old women is everywhere: pursuing freedom and happy marriage life. First of all, they dare to break through the cage of traditional marriage. Yan Xi, the hero, and Qing Qiu, the heroine in the works: one is a noble family and the other is a girl from a poor family.
The combination of two people with such a big difference in background is a positive challenge to the traditional concept of "suitable for each other". Although it was love at first sight, it was no longer a secret marriage for a lifetime, but a aboveboard free love. The betrayal of love does not lead to the hero's suicide, and love is not the whole of life. This view of marriage and love and the pursuit of independent personality are undoubtedly the spirit of the times.
Lian Xiao, the servant girl, also ran away for love, which reflected the improvement of the ideology of the lower-class servant girls. The combination of her and Liu Chunjiang completely ruled out the concept of family status and all social factors. She knows that in such an environment, she must strive for and pursue a free and happy marriage on her own. The boss resolutely filed for divorce when he had no hope for Feng.
This is a group of conservative women who live on the edge of the alternation of old and new contradictions, but they have a strong sense of modernity. They did not succumb to the fate of oppression, but took the form of escape to resist. ?
Artistic feature
"Golden Powder Family" adopts the form of Zhang Hui's novel in artistic treatment, and selects the living plot, which is vivid and natural, making people feel more cordial. The language of the novel is simple and mellow, and the spoken language is lively, with distinct social consciousness and civilian consciousness. Writing is full of poetic beauty and interesting beauty, and art is suitable for different tastes.
The content has strong social realism and criticism.
Zhang Henshui tried to change and correct the above-mentioned shortcomings in artistic structure and ideological content in "Golden Powder Family". He adopted the model of A Dream of Red Mansions and concentrated his pen and ink on a noble family. The novel runs through the book with the love, marriage, discord and dispersion of the hero and heroine Yan Jing and Leng Qingqiu as clues, and depicts the rise and fall of the prime minister Jin Quan Yi's family during the rule of Beiyang Warlords.
It is precisely because of this main line that the works appear exquisite in conception and exquisite in selection of materials, and overcome the shortcomings of being sloppy in the past. The book is nearly a million words, but the works are done in one go, which shows the author's superb artistic skill. By describing the life of aristocratic families in Beijing's upper-class society, Jinfen Family touched a field neglected by ordinary writers (including revolutionary writers) at that time, and provided real visual materials for the upper-class society at that time for later generations.
Through delicate brushwork, the author vividly shows the arrogance, extravagance, decadence, parasitic life and decadent soul of this powerful family, and analyzes the patriarchal clan system model of China traditional society. In this big family, the beautiful and gentle relationship between people has been distorted and alienated, replaced by the interest calculation and intrigue between father and son, mother and child, and husband and wife.
Mrs. Jin and Cui Yi, the concubine of Jin Quan, secretly fought. Jin Yanxi went after other girls only a few days after she got married. Eldest brother Feng Ju has just been released by his wife Wu Peifang for usury. Jin Quan's sons are idle, ignorant, and never tired of it, living a life of drunkenness and spending money like water.
They soak in the "golden powder fragrance", visit the kiln, marry concubines, hold the horn of Kun and run on the dance floor. In this way, the novel exposes the fig leaf of the luxurious life of the upper class of feudal bureaucrats and the darkness and decay of the feudal bureaucratic family, thus objectively reflecting the appearance of the upper class during the rule of Beiyang warlords to some extent.
The characterization is rich, solid and typical.
The characters in the novel all have complex character connotations, and their manners, thoughts, mentality and personality changes have a strong internal character logic foundation and obvious objective authenticity. For example, the successful creation of Leng Qingqiu's image has improved the realism of his works.
When I first met Jin Yanxi, her beautiful appearance and elegant temperament attracted this dude like a magnet and became his unscrupulous target. However, inexperience and Jin Yanxi's sweet words made Leng Qiuqing fall in love quickly and finally had to marry Jin Yanxi in a hurry.
Leng Qingqiu thought that he could live a happy and peaceful life from now on, but he lived together for a short time after marriage. Jin Yanxi revealed the true face of his playboy. He treats women as playthings and his wife as strangers, but he still hangs out with romantic actors day and night. In the face of this humiliating life, Leng Qingqiu, with a proud heart, was deeply troubled and regretted.
Because of traditional ideas, she didn't take decisive action, and she still has illusions about Yan Xi. She tried to persuade her to wait until he changed his mind. After Jin Quan's death, Jin Yanxi and Bai Xiuzhu rekindled their old love, intending to abandon their wives and children, and went to Germany with Bai Xiuzhu. Leng Qingqiu felt his personality and self-esteem were fatally hurt.
She is determined to break up with Jin Yan West. So she hid in the small building with her children first, and then quietly hid in a fire with her children. Leng Qingqiu's action of running away from home has certain anti-feudal significance.
Leng Qingqiu, who was born in a poor family with a scholarly family, is "a man bound by old books". She lacks the fighting enthusiasm and courageous actions of the advanced young people in the May 4th Movement who boldly rebelled against feudal ethics and even the whole feudal system, which made her unable to break away from the shackles of old ideas.
She wants to be a good wife and mother, but at the same time she wants to maintain her independent personality. She found another way, thinking about divorce and freedom. The author faithfully described the whole process of the girl's character development.
Art forms and expressions are nationalized and popularized.
In The Golden Powder Family, the author introduced subtle psychological description into Zhang Hui's novels for the first time, which initiated the psychological description of Zhang Hui's novels. Leng Qingqiu's psychological activities and inner feelings before he decided to break up with Jin Yan in the west were vividly described by Zhang Henshui, full of twists and turns, gentle and touching. These psychological descriptions make Leng Qingqiu have a certain sense of the times compared with the protagonists of other contemporary Zhang Hui novels.
In addition, The Golden Powder Family broke the happy ending of the old novel in terms of structural form and overall conception, and the Jin family fell apart with the burning of the Golden House. The author consciously enhances the tragedy of his works, and at the same time gives people endless inspiration, which not only shows the author's artistic transcendence, but also shows his creative intention of criticizing reality.
