The literary and philosophical nature of modern literary works can be seen in the following examples: Lu Xun's novels such as A Madman's Diary, The True Story of Ah Q, and Hesitation revealed the darkness of society and the distortion of human nature at that time. Lao She's novels such as Camel Xiangzi and Teahouse portrayed the life and spiritual world of the people at the bottom of the city. Zhang Ailing's novels, such as Red Rose and White Rose and Love in a City-Toppling City, express profound philosophical thinking through the exploration of the fate and human nature of female characters. Yu Hua's novels, such as Alive and Crying in the Drizzle, deeply reflected the fate of society and human beings by describing the suffering of human nature and the philosophical thinking of life and death. Qian Zhongshu's novels such as Fortress Besieged and Cat City explored philosophical issues such as human nature, love, life and society with humor and irony. Margaret Atwood's Gone with the Wind and other novels reflected the changes of American society and culture and the complexity of human nature by describing the Civil War and the fate of female characters. The above are just some examples. There are many excellent modern literary works such as Ernest Hemmingway's The Old Man and the Sea, Beaupassant's Life, and Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, all of which have their own unique philosophical thinking and literary value.
The true realm is to rather forgive others than let others forgive you. Once a person became smart, they would have an uncontrollable desire to think that they knew everything but actually knew nothing. All three of us are selfish and greedy, so we need to learn to control our emotions. People often deceive themselves and tell themselves that some things are true, but they never know what the truth is. People often hurt others for their own interests, which is the tragedy of human society. The happiness that people pursue is not real happiness but a superficial feeling. People are often confused by their own understanding of things and cannot see the essence of things clearly. Life is like a never-ending hard labor. Don't be afraid and refuse hardship. Surpassing hardship is the strong in life. Any experience was a kind of accumulation. The more people accumulated, the more mature they would be. The more experiences they had, the thicker their lives would be.
Some seemingly vulgar novels actually contained profound life philosophy and values, such as Dream of the Red Chamber and Journey to the West. These two works both had complicated character relationships and plot structures. Although they described some absurd scenes, they deeply reflected the current situation and human nature of Chinese society and culture. At the same time, they were also widely regarded as works of cultural value, which had a profound impact on the development of Chinese literature and culture.
Many literary works contain symbolic images, which are often deeply philosophical. The following are some works that reflect the philosophical aspects of literary symbolism: "Dream of the Red Chamber"-Jia Baoyu's "stone" symbolizes fate while Lin Daiyu's "Daiyu" symbolizes soul. 2 Journey to the West-Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang symbolizes power and strength while Tang Sanzang's Tang Sanzang meat symbolizes the holy fruit. 3 Water Margins-Song Jiang's "righteousness" symbolized justice while Lin Chong's "leopard head" symbolized courage. 4 Romance of the Three Kingdoms-Cao Cao's "turtle shell" symbolizes power and immortality while Liu Bei's "Crouching Dragon" symbolizes wisdom. Wu Jingzi's "gourd" symbolized privacy and secrets while Fan Jin's "madness" symbolized tragedy and madness. These works express profound philosophy and human thinking through the metaphor of symbolic images, which has important enlightenment for us to understand the world and life.
