Why do you feel that contemporary writers can rarely write masterpieces handed down from generation to generation?

Short-sighted, narrow-minded, personal, extremely selfish, have it both ways, loss of conscience, how can you write such classics as Hugo and Balzac?

This question is more cultural. First, it is caused by several factors. First, the reflection of the commodity era needs a very high pattern. Second, how to inherit traditional culture? Third, the enlightenment function of cultural environment is too weak.

Let's talk about the limit of survival desire in the commodity age. Taking online celebrities as an example is nothing more than a gimmick to make money. But people who follow the trend like clouds cannot care about the bottom line and morality. Use the heat to make money first! Faced with this situation, does the screenwriter dare to touch it? Dare to write? I did see that writers are nothing! Therefore, the writer has a high sense of mission and seems to have a long way to go!

Traditional culture? Or pass on the culture? Unity is rigid, but inheritance is brilliant. Unfortunately, I didn't see anyone with culture. The only thing I see is the confusion of calligraphy. I write with my face, a needle and a stick. This innovation is too shocking. I beg to differ!

Finally, talk about the disadvantages of cultural environment, relationship culture and face culture. With this feature, culture is equivalent to heavy makeup. Not to mention excellent works, I read a few shit poems, which seem to have souls, and it is easy to distinguish the cultural environment from the public.

In fact, it's not just these points, culture has always existed, but our cognition is still a long way from culture.

This question is difficult to answer. You have a big problem. Answering this question comprehensively involves all levels of society. Don't look at the problem one-sidedly, look at it objectively. Do you think Mr. Mo Yan's Red Sorghum is a good work? Because I am neither a writer nor a poet, I don't want to discuss this problem too much. But I still want to talk about my own views. You can't say no, you can only say very little. There are many reasons for "reducing production", and I want to briefly talk about one or two.

The first batch of contemporary writers who claimed to be writers were not writers at all, but "sitting at home". Art comes from life. They (they) don't have the profound experience of artists in the past. If they can't get the real theme of life, they will "sit at home" and cheat.

The second work is greatly influenced by social value orientation. When social and political views conflict with readers' values, even if a good work is written that conforms to social and political orientation, it will not be recognized by readers with distorted value orientation! If your writing conforms to the readers' recognition, it must be against the social and political orientation! This is the difficulty of writers now.

The third literary works are greatly influenced by literary and artistic works. Nowadays, there are various forms of literary and artistic works, and the fishy eyes are mixed! It is most suitable to satisfy the psychology of the "audience" at that time and laugh it off. Let's look at these works. What can be passed down from generation to generation? A literary work written for several years is not as good as a five-minute essay, and it will bring money! Who will concentrate on creation? Spend some money, walk around and get the title of writer and poet.

The fourth literary works have also been greatly impacted by the Internet. In the network, Chinese and foreign works can be seen at a glance, and you can watch whatever you want. Who can read what these writers write now, and the reading volume can't go up, which seriously dampened the enthusiasm of writers!

. . . . . . In short, there are many factors, so I don't want to list them one by one.

According to the author's discussion, literary works that can be compared with the Book of Songs, Tang Poetry, Song Ci, novels of Ming and Qing Dynasties, prose of the Republic of China, and vernacular Chinese of New China can only be regarded as masterpieces handed down from generation to generation. Then by this standard, there are still some masterpieces in contemporary times, although they are not so mature.

Even during the Cultural Revolution, the misty poems of forefinger and others were born. A poem "Here is Beijing at 4: 08" wrote the profound grief of educated youth when they went to the countryside, which should be said to be an epic of the soul. Gu Cheng's generation, Kitajima's answer, also expressed the mood of an era and recorded the mental outlook of an era. "The night gave me black eyes, but I used them to look for light", "meanness is the passport of the despicable, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble".

In the new period of reform and opening up, literature is pouring out. Liu's Class Teacher and He's Country Field are landmark works of ideological emancipation. Reflective literature and root-seeking literature are surging, and excellent works emerge one after another, releasing the writer's thoughts and talents. Today, we still remember Wang Meng's personification, Han Shaogong's looking at the grass field in the west, Gu Hua's furong town, Acheng's chess king, tree king, king of the children, Liang's blizzard tonight, Wang Shuo's half flame and half sea water, and so on.

Entering the period of comprehensive revival, the literature in the new period is becoming more and more mature and open. Mo Yan's works inspired by Latin American magic realism have been recognized by world literature.

Mo Yan did not stop. Recently, he gave up magical realism, which has achieved great success, and introduced a new work with postmodernism that will be handed down to future generations.

Moreover, his previous speech "There are only a handful of good days for mankind" also reflected the avant-garde of his thoughts.

There are also two important writers: Yu Hua and Yan Lianke. Like Mo Yan's Red Sorghum, Yu Hua's Alive was adapted and filmed by Zhang Yimou, and gained world fame. Yan Lianke created his "God Realism" on the basis of magic realism, which reflected the reality strangely and profoundly.

Your view of contemporary poetry is also biased. Neither Yu Xiuhua's poems nor your shit poems are retrogression of literature, but only representative works that conform to the development and changes of post-modern literature.

The world faced by human beings is sudden, energy and ecological crisis, hedonism flooding, value deconstruction and despicable exposure of human nature, which should be reflected in the literature of the times.

Only by constantly knowing ourselves can human beings make continuous progress.

In short, your pessimism about literature is somewhat redundant, and the corresponding literature will be produced in any era.

Chen and Jia Pingwa, the "Troika", have made great achievements in Shaanxi, while Jia Pingwa, who is alive, is diligent and productive.

It is gratifying that at present, not only some people in the literary world are painstakingly writing, but also in the folk, I don't know how many people are writing.

Impetuous society, noisy crowd, the impact of money, the agitation of fame and fortune, the traction of status, the noise of luxury and the realistic power and money have fascinated the hearts of the world. Who still has the mind to concentrate on life and practice, take root in the grassroots and meditate at the desk? How much money can you make by creating that thing?

This is a very meaningful topic. Whether the works can be handed down from generation to generation should be left to future generations to test. However, it is undeniable that many of the works that appear at present are mediocre, and it is difficult to have a strong attraction and positive emotional impact on readers.

Contemporary writers can't write excellent works for the following reasons.

First, there is something wrong with the writer's starting point, and he regards literary creation as a stepping stone to grab fame and fortune. In his mind, there is only ego without art, readers and society. How can this be impartial, moaning, pretending and even playing tricks to attract readers' attention?

The second is not to "enter" life. Writers who have really produced great works throughout the ages have experienced life wholeheartedly, and have the courage, courage and will to face life and face the ups and downs of life. Only in this way can they write works full of humanity and reflecting the times. On the other hand, some contemporary writers are curled up in their study, thinking about how much money they can earn while tapping the computer, or simply overdrawing their popularity, and doodling and painting will open up new financial resources after literary thoughts are exhausted. How can such a so-called writer create great works?

The third is the institutional mechanism. Did Li Bai, Du Fu and Su Shi join the Writers Association? Writers can't be caged and can't produce penetrating works. There are also so-called first-class writers and second-rate writers. You should know whether the evaluation right of works should be the society or the readers! It is not surprising that writers' associations are bureaucratized in the literary world, and under this circumstance, some so-called masterpieces are produced, which exude craftsman spirit, stereotyped writing and even evil spirits.

Now which writer can honestly be a farmer for several years like Liu Qing and Haoran in those days? Who else is the real soldier who came back from the dead? It is natural that there are no fine products.

"Contemporary writers write works handed down from generation to generation" is a false proposition. Since he is a contemporary writer, how can he be handed down from generation to generation now? Could it be that the questioner crossed hundreds of years later? Or are the works of contemporary writers written before the Ming and Qing Dynasties and passed down to this day?

First, the basic knowledge of ancient Chinese is not enough. The absorption of Chinese excellent traditional culture is still stagnant in superficial understanding. Not enough absorption of the essence of the past, of course, this is related to the fast-paced life in today's society, people are very impetuous. China's classical literature and classics are worthy of repeated study by later generations, but few people study them now. The academic burden is also heavy. After graduating from college, I was busy with work and didn't have time and energy to study, which led to insufficient knowledge of ancient Chinese. Now there are always people who like to quote a paragraph or two, which is too out of context and far-fetched. Few people can really understand the connotation, many people try, and too few people deeply and systematically understand it.

Second, the social life experience is not enough. Nowadays people's social life is single. Most of them are in schools and units until they retire and finally die. They don't have rich life experience and spend their whole lives in one unit and one place. Those who have the ability to run all over the country are also busy doing business and running around for some official business of the unit. These simple life experiences are not enough for them to have rich life experiences and provide profound nutrition for their creation.

Third, in-depth thinking is not enough. This is related to the current human life. People pursue material things excessively, and think relatively little about themselves, life, society, the collective and the whole mankind.

Fourth, the vision is not enough. This is closely related to the current education. In the past, there were many selfless people and few selfish people. In the past, people cared about the world, but today, most people think about personal development and family development, and even family values are less. Not to mention such a big idea as a nation and a country. Some people think about people's life, such as the great Aristotle, such as Mao Zedong. They are thinking about the whole country and the whole nation. For example, Marx and Engels considered the whole mankind.

If a writer regards his own works as his own, there is little possibility of producing masterpieces handed down from generation to generation. If the writer is in cahoots with the publishing house, the reality has already told you the result.
