The concepts of "elegant literature" and "popular literature" are undoubtedly one of the most frequently used terms in today's literary world. Although people may be dissatisfied with the fuzziness of its connotation and its casual use, few people try to make a convincing and accurate statement of its conceptual distinction. This is not surprising, because in this work, two inevitable questions must be answered.

Let's talk about the first point, the difference of experience between elegant literature and popular literature in the representation of the real world. We believe that elegant literature generally tends to be holistic, while popular literature tends to be single-dimensional experience. The relationship among Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Dong Xie, Du, Nandi and Beigai in Jin Yong's Legend of the Condor Heroes is complicated. With the development of the story, it will eventually come out: the plot is unpredictable and bizarre, but it is nothing more than good people defeating bad people and justice defeating evil-this is not so much truth as desire. This desire is given generously and freely, satisfying the daydreams of readers composed of various dissatisfied people. There is not much room for creative reading for readers. Its answer lies in the riddle. As a cultural fast food, you don't need to chew.

Casting Sword looks like a martial arts novel, but it is quite different from Legend of the Condor Heroes. Who is the pride of the party? Why did he avenge the eyebrow ruler? Why did the brow ruler believe him without hesitation? What does it mean that the heads of the king, the banquet host and Mei Chi can't recognize each other after being salvaged from the Jinding? Finally, what is the story trying to say? Obviously, it is not as simple as "just cracking down on evil". These mysteries make us think and pursue the meaning behind the text with a more positive attitude.

On the one hand, we must point out that elegant literature is noble and vulgar after all.

After all, learning is secular, and the distinction between high and low cannot be confused. In recent years, there has been a kind of

Irresponsible tendency to beautify popular literature, for example, a doctor listed Jin Yong as a modern and contemporary writer in China.

A scholar wrote a book saying that Jin Yong was the most famous in China in the 20th century.

A great novelist, a famous university didn't hire Ba Jin or Bing Xin as honorary professors, but

Jin Yong was appointed as an honorary professor, and Jing praised Jin Yong's novels as "quiet literature"

Revolution. " And so on. This is very thought-provoking Popular literature is very important to popular culture.

A component, and popular culture is directly controlled by commercial interests. Popularization of popular literature

Entering the room, we can see the significance of commodity consciousness to literature, one of the most lofty spiritual fields of mankind.

The seriousness and urgency of infiltration, so rebuild the literary order, establish the authority of elegant literature in the countryside, and

It is urgent to provide theoretical basis for this.
