The Relationship between Writers' Literature and Folk Literature

The relationship between writers' literature and folk literature is as follows:

1. Folk literature is a kind of language art created collectively by the general public and spread orally. The people's oral literature was first produced, which is one of the original sources of literature. It tells stories, shows life, shapes images and expresses emotions in oral language. It is one of the components of people's daily life, and it is an important way and channel for people to know the society, place their ideals and express their emotional wishes.

2. Writer literature refers to the literature of the upper class in the traditional era, that is, the literature of literati and literati. Folk literature and writers' literati literature are quite different in content and form. However, this separation not only formed two completely different literary traditions, but also brought a very complicated two-way communication relationship between them in history.

3, so the specific differences are reflected, first of all in the way of creation. Folk literature is a collective oral creation, and writer literature is a personal written creation; Secondly, the circulation mode is different. Folk literature is circulated orally with variability, while writers' literature is circulated in writing with fixity; Third, the receiver's consciousness is different. Folklore recipients participate in literary creation; The recipients of writers' literature need to have a personal understanding of the works and cannot be divorced from the text.

4. Different aesthetic values. Folk literature is multifunctional and practical, reflecting the values and aesthetic tendencies of the group. It has a lot of scientific value, so it must be studied from many angles, from all aspects of social science, and even some natural sciences; Writer's literature embodies the writer's individual pursuit, and has higher artistic value compared with folk literature.

There are various ways for folk literature to enter contemporary writers' literature, and there are also various forms of existence in different writers' works. The above is just a simple summary.

Because folk literature has deep internal relations with China traditional culture and folk culture, its aesthetic feelings and the way of imagining the world are nationalized, so it has special significance for contemporary writers. Contemporary writers should have a sense of folk literature, combine the beneficial content of folk literature with their own creation, and create excellent works with China style and style.
