Who has Ding Ling's "Comrade Qu Qiubai I Know-Memories and Random Thoughts"? thank you urgent
China's traditional culture is a group culture, lacking concern and respect for individual life. Respect is supreme, and the group is supreme. Everyone lives in a big net woven by ethics and power, and can't see people as independent subjects. Therefore, in a society with a strong sense of group and ignoring individuals, there can be no awakening of the Chinese nation in a truly modern sense without the real awakening of individuals. The revival of the Chinese nation and the return of human nature are inevitably linked. The May 4th Movement was a great turning point in the history of China. It awakened a generation of intellectuals and began the arduous exploration of human awakening and liberation. It has shaped the modern soul and character of modern intellectuals in China, especially the modern cultural personality of sticking to oneself and dedicating oneself to the nation. However, due to the realistic environment of saving the nation from subjugation in modern China, the increasingly cruel and fierce political struggle, and the over-emphasis on the ideological transformation of intellectuals, the requirement of personality liberation gave way to class liberation and national liberation, and the individualism nurtured by the May 4th Movement was gradually eroded and transformed. Ding Ling is an example of this erosion and transformation. Therefore, Ding Ling's tragedy is also a spiritual tragedy of individualism.
When the May 4th Movement broke out, Ding Ling was still a student who was only 15 years old. But the spring breeze of personality liberation awakened her heart and aroused her spiritual factors of longing for freedom and independence. She took part in parades, debates and social practice of serving the people with her senior classmates. Mr. Zhang Yongquan pointed out in the article "The Looseness and Decline of Individualism —— On Ding Ling's Spiritual Tragedy" that "once an individual's personality and spirit mature, it becomes a super-stable structure. It internalizes into people's psychology, into people's way of thinking and into people's daily unconsciousness. The core of Ding Ling's character and spirit is individualism that insists on self and pursues freedom and ideals. " [15] It was the May 4th Movement that gave her this modern cultural character of pursuing individuality liberation and insisting on individuality independence. This character runs through Ding Ling's literary creation and life practice, and becomes a remarkable symbol of her unique personality. Although Sha Fei's works have their own styles, they share a common spiritual trait, that is, their persistence in self and their pursuit of freedom and ideals. Aside from the classic image of China literature in the 20th century, Sha Fei has become an important milestone for people to explore the spirit of the May 4th Movement. Even in the thirties and forties, Ding Ling's creative tendency changed, but she still adhered to this persistence in her heart. In the Hospital, When I was in the Village, Night, and The Sun Shines on the Sanggan River, all these works reflect the call of the May 4th spirit for human values, dignity and liberation. "Since the revolution is for the vast majority of mankind, why are even the closest comrades so lacking in love?" Lu Ping in Ding Ling's works put forward such a question, revealing the author's unique understanding and thinking about the revolutionary cause she devoted herself to. Her description, sympathy and concern for Pearl Krabs showed her respect for human value and dignity and her pursuit of human liberation. As for He Huaming and Heini, they show the author's respect and concern for individuals.
Ding Ling's modern intellectual character had an important influence on the literature in the liberated areas at that time, and she set an example for the literature in the liberated areas to better undertake the historical mission of national salvation and enlightenment. Regrettably, this modern consciousness has not been respected and treated as it should, and it was severely criticized as a petty bourgeoisie thought in the rectification movement and the national salvation movement in the 1940s. History began to melt this modern consciousness. Due to the criticism of In the Hospital, some thoughts on March 8th, the intervention of the Wang Shiwei Wild Lily incident, especially the suspicion and review of the history of Nanjing prisoners, individualism has loosened in Ding Ling's mind. Ding Ling didn't engage in her own novel creation for four or five years, which can't be said to be a kind of repression and persistence to herself. During the period of northern Shaanxi, Ding Ling was determined to correct and transform her "individualism" thought, but she still couldn't resist the temptation of the personality thought and free spirit of the May 4th Movement, and cast an affectionate glance at it in concept and practice. [16] During this period, individualism began to show a contradictory state in Ding Ling's mind. After the founding of New China, Ding Ling took the leading position in the literary and art circles, and successively held social positions such as editor-in-chief of Literary and Art Newspaper, director of the Central Literature Research Institute, director of literature and art in Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China, party secretary and vice-chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, and editor-in-chief of People's Literature. As a writer, Ding Ling, who belongs to the writer's temperament, has just entered the circle of politicians, wearing political shackles but showing the writer's temperament inappropriately. "Like some big stars and speakers, she is very concerned about who hangs up the number plate. That's why she got the leader into trouble before. After she came back from a meeting in the Soviet Union, she spread it and invited her to speak several times in ehrenburg, the Soviet Union, saying,' You are a great writer, and you should speak.' But she is not the head of the delegation. The head of the delegation disagreed with her. She quoted ehrenburg as saying that the head of the delegation "has the face to make a report" and so on. Please think about it, if this word gets out, can she not be disgusted by the leaders? [17] Wang Meng once described Ding Ling's artistic temperament in such a concrete way. This is an era in which personality and bourgeois individualism are confused. In an era in which absolute obedience is emphasized, in an era in which class positions are completely different, especially when Ding Ling meets her old enemies with a lot of political struggle skills, this has become an inevitable fate.
In 1955 and 1957, Ding Ling was wrongly classified as the main member of "Ding Ling and Chen Qixia anti-party group" and "Ding Ling and Feng Xuefeng right-wing anti-party group" respectively. 1958 was "re-criticized" and sent to work in the Great Northern Wilderness. During the "Cultural Revolution", she was brutally persecuted by the Gang of Four and was once put in prison. It was not until the Third Plenary Session of the 11th CPC Central Committee in 1979 that her mistakes of more than 20 years were rehabilitated.
After more than 20 years of self-pious persecution and ideological transformation, when Ding Ling reappeared in the literary world with her Du Wanxiang, her consistent individualism had disappeared. Du Wanxiang in her works has no pursuit of marriage and love, and her husband can't get the respect he deserves. "He has nothing to say to her," though she was thinking, "why did he call me all the way here? Just cook for him, clean up the house and live with him? " However, she "didn't feel anything wrong" and "just silently resented her incompetence". [18] Here, Du Wanxiang no longer uses the banner of personality liberation like Sha Fei, but completely integrates herself into the collective, and even no longer considers whether an individual's marriage is happy or not. The individual once again dissolved into the group, which is a retrogression in Ding Ling's creation.
In the 1980s, when the spring breeze of ideological emancipation visited this ancient land of China again, Ding Ling from the May 4th Movement, who cared about herself and longed for freedom, could have kept a more open mind and a more rational spirit, and her own misfortune triggered her to reflect and criticize the social unsound factors. However, we can see that in some aspects, her thoughts are not open enough, and sometimes she even shows a "left" tendency and becomes a "politicized person".
