Biographical notes

Aladin Naoer was born in Sunan Yugur Autonomous County and lived in his hometown until he was 18 years old. Everything in the northwest plateau has given her a passion for life and a healthy mentality. She started writing on 1992, trying to continue writing the modern chapter of grassland culture with love. Sunan Yugur Autonomous County is located in the depths of Qilian Mountain in western Gansu Province. Yugur nationality is one of the three unique ethnic minorities in Gansu province, and it still retains the living habit of grazing as the main body. Aladin, who lives in the provincial capital, has a strong homesickness in his heart. In his works, he repeatedly describes the life situation of his hometown-"Bajia Grasland", and depicts the beautiful grassland and all the creatures on the grassland from a childish perspective. She wrote about the scenery of eight grasslands, four puzzles and her caring and happy relatives and friends.

The focus of Aladin's prose is to write emotions-affection, friendship and love. She knows how to be grateful and cherishes the love that others have paid for herself. Concern for people and reverence for life are the essence of grassland culture. She praised her sister Sarilang. "Words cannot describe my love. I am filled with gratitude and awe. The world I live in is supported by two women with their kindness, one is my mother and the other is my sister. The world is perfect because of their existence "(Tianger). She also said gratefully, "Every time we go to a tent, the shepherds nearby will come and invite us to dinner immediately, and we will all drink with our father to offer sheep backs" (Yerjiang).

Aladin also poured into his works the pleasant feeling that man and all creatures in the natural world live in harmony at any time. This is a sacred emotion from the grassland, and it is this emotion that arouses people's universal resonance. In Aladin's works, snow peaks, blue sky, white clouds and grasslands are all alive and spiritual, as are cows, sheep and sheepdogs. If people abandon their greedy and impetuous mentality, they can live in harmony with them-"My mind is baptized by the holiness of Xuefeng every day and taught selflessly by the blue sky. Lying on the grass, enjoying the care of the endless prairie, my soul has been sublimated from the nature that came from ancient times. " "My pony came and licked my back with his tongue. Its love for me is the love of the earth, and its intimacy for me is the intimacy of the earth "(grassland). "When it comes to sheepdogs, I can't help but think of his friendship. During the long time when I was grazing alone, woodcut was my best friend. The words describing the harmonious coexistence between man and nature are pure and beautiful, just like an idyllic poem.

At the same time, Aladin also crossed the historical tunnel with her adult eyes and reflected on the reality and history of her own nation. She described the extinction activities of grassland herders (red collapse). They spread grass seeds in a scientific way and develop grassland potential (Yerjiang). In order to improve the cultural quality of future generations, they sent their children to study in the county town (Tiangeer). They also bid farewell to bartering and got used to shopping in county stores (shaking boots). At the same time, Aladin also showed profundity in his creation. "Ava taught me the first song is Xizhi Hezhi. We are a nomadic people' Yao Huer', a nation with a long history of migrating from the Great Wall of Wan Li to Xing 'an Mountains, Danube River, Volga River and Eurasian Prairie. " "A nomadic people is constantly drifting. After the soul and mind are traumatized, the roots of wandering remain in their hearts. As Han Xiaohui and Ma Busheng said, Aladin's prose expresses "the secret of a nation's settlement and reproduction to this day;" It is a survival law related to the world, human beings, nature, life, soul and belief. "Aladin" is no longer satisfied with describing the superficial life of Yugur people, but she extends her tentacles to the historical and spiritual depths of her nation.

works

Aladin Naoer believes in Buddhism and firmly believes that this is an integral part of grassland culture. The religion she believes in provides us with a window to see the religious culture of western nomads. The Rainbow Sheep in Mani Dui describes positively the process of Aladin's religious belief-it was her mother's words and deeds that made her believe in Buddhism: "Mani Dui is the place where my grandmother often carried me to worship since I was born, and it left sacredness and admiration in my life and memory when I was very young." "Gradually, when I was able to stand and walk, I completely learned to pray like my grandmother, and then I prayed every time I got there." Sacrificing to Manidui is a unique way of praying for blessings in Tibetan Buddhism. In the article "Rainbow Sheep in Mani Pile", Aladin introduced the ritual of offering sacrifices to Mani Pile through a series of activities, such as grandma choosing stones, washing stones, carving scriptures, opening the hall of light, and then stacking stones on Mani Pile. It was from attending this ceremony that Aladin developed a strong religious complex.

Mother taught Aladin to pray and passed her agate beads to Aladin. More importantly, the mother cultivated Aladin's broad-minded compassion of being grateful, being kind to others and living in harmony with all beings in the world, and inspired her firm and simple outlook on life, which is the ideological basis of Aladin's religious complex. In the essay "A Skin Bulging in the Wind", we can clearly see the power of this mother's words and deeds. "When grandma is around, I often give dried meat to my friends." Grandma not only does not object to this, but also teaches children to treat others with an open and generous attitude. Her poetic language confirms her broadness: "The world of birds is the sky, the world of people is the earth, and the sky where birds fly is the land where people live."

Aladin also expressed her sister, grandfather, father, neighbors and partners in her prose, as well as her sheep, horses and sheepdogs, which not only gave her warmth, but also gave her a sense of life. Sister Salang "made me understand that there is a beautiful thing between people." This kind of beauty is like a sunflower, which grows brilliantly in the sun (Sarilang). The death of 96-year-old Qu Dan (Qu Dan Sr) taught Aladin a lesson. He is generous, but he is hard on himself. He wore leather shoes for decades, and patched them up 12. When he died, he told his son that everything was left to others except old boots and robes. Qu Dan's old man made her understand, "People should think when they are alive. You should understand the love of the earth and the suffering of mankind. "When people are alive, they should, like Qu Dan,' love the land, the grasslands and the mountains and rivers'.

Growing up in a friendly and sincere interpersonal environment, Aladin's heart is full of love. Her eyes can see the sheep wearing rainbows, and she thinks that "the sheep beside the pile are also wise and spiritual". Her ears can hear the sounds of nature on the grassland: "Qingyun flows, the earth roars, and the white clouds in the sky flow out music like mountains and running water." Her mind can swim in the ocean of life-"from high mountains, Yuan Ye, snow peaks and canyons, all the way to the grassland, covering an inch of land and a forest, and swimming to the sea where everything was born" (grassland). Therefore, she is upright and broad-minded, and her religious complex has a solid cultural foundation and full philosophical implications.

In the article "Rainbow Sheep in Mani Dui", Aladin wrote down the contents of her prayers, which provided a direct annotation for us to understand her religious complex: "Like Maya, I looked at my grassland with tears, looked at it and sang with tears, as if my life would end at this moment, as if I would never see the sunset again. As the sun sets and night falls, with my tears and prayers, my scripture is read as the earth's prayer to mankind and all beings: I am willing to bear all the sufferings of mankind, and I am willing to exchange my life as long as mankind is peaceful and healthy! " "I raised my white Hada with both hands and offered my blessing to the pile. I told it to bless my land, protect mankind from disasters and protect the health and safety of all people in the world! Aladin's religious complex is open and altruistic. Instead of praying for her own happiness, she would rather sacrifice herself for the peace and health of mankind. She not only hopes that everyone will be safe and happy, but also hopes that the Buddha will bless this land and all creatures on it. This shows that Aladin's religious consciousness fully conforms to our ideal of protecting the environment and building a harmonious society today. This shows the artistic charm and cultural connotation of Aladin's prose.

trait

Aladin's simple expression of emotion and the particularity of language constitute the unique beauty of his prose, which shows the musical characteristics of grassland culture and has been highly praised by many critics. Han Xiaohui said that she "must be a satellite chosen by generations of Yugur people to express their national aspirations." Her way of thinking is very different from ours and all the works we have seen. Words express not words, but the sound of nature. " Li Jianjun said that her prose is good at expressing emotions, which "definitely strengthened the intensity and intensity of expressing the Sui Dynasty, thus returning her writing to the most authentic state". Ma Busheng also emphasized the grassland culture matrix of her literary language: "Yugur people are good at singing and dancing. If Aladin's prose is broken down into fragments, each paragraph and sentence can be sung as Yugur folk songs. " These comments all talk about the emotional expression and the particularity of language in Aladin's prose.

Aladin's prose really reached an indescribable position. Its unique charm is that it seems simple and casual, but it can make readers have emotional resonance and even shock. In addition to the sanctity and health of her emotions, real emotional expression and special rhetorical devices, such as poetic language rhythm, may be her uniqueness. So, how to express emotions is the real state? It should be said that, like Aladin, it is truly lyrical to treat the reader as a loved one and reveal his true feelings to him, without exaggeration or disguise or embellishment. For example, a girl's shyness and fear at menarche, misunderstanding of the affair between men and women, the beauty of first love and the sadness of lovelorn are all the author's mentality and emotions when he was ignorant, frustrated, embarrassed and embarrassed in the past. As a woman, it really takes courage and sincerity to tell these inner secrets frankly, especially to truthfully reveal the feelings of a unrequited girl. This is naturally fresh and valuable at a time when artificial beautification of oneself has become an extremely common phenomenon in prose creation.

What attracts Aladin's attention is not only the lyrical way of the real state, but also her rhetorical way of language is very special. As a writer of grassland culture, Aladin is familiar with various lyric techniques of grassland singers: metaphor, symbol, parallelism and personification. However, as a case, Aladin is unique. Her use of some rhetorical devices is powerful, the most prominent is the use of personification, which has been discussed by many commentators. Many of her chapters have written about her emotional communication with livestock on the grassland. She not only personifies the spirituality of livestock, but also really treats horses, sheep and sheepdogs on the grassland as companions when they are alone. Their behavior is almost the same as that of people: "When I went ashore, Mu Ke looked at my body covered with water droplets and was almost shocked. His eyes were full of colorful light and he gasped. I sat on the grass covered with clothes and wrung the water out of my hair. At this time, Mu Ke is like a mature man with gentle eyes like water. It hesitated for a while, then came up gently and stuck out its long tongue to lick the water drops on my body (Maki Ka Shepherd). "I looked around and looked at the sheep in the glow, as if they could understand my scriptures. I opened my eyes. Many sheep didn't eat grass and looked at me. There is a sheep with tears in its eyes. " (Rainbow Sheep in Manidui) These not only apply personification to the extreme, but also describe the real situation and show the unique discourse mode of Aladin's prose.

Aladin's frequent use of parallelism and poetic rhythm is another obvious feature of her prose art; This language expression and the grassland music flowing from time to time in her heart are mutually causal, set each other off and become interesting, and glow with strong artistic charm. We can choose several small paragraphs for comparison. She compared Grandpa and his friends to two eagles: "The two old people were ground into two withered eagles by years, their bodies trembled in the bleak light and their eyes were full of tears. In that case, everyone was very sad, so sad and miserable, so sincere "(Yel River). When she grazes alone, the beautiful music flowing from her heart can always help her overcome loneliness: "After my body matches the body of the earth, there is a kind of music flowing from the grass and bringing my heart into the singing of the earth. At this time, the sky and the earth began to sing. At this time, all I felt was the existence of the soul, and this flesh-and-blood body with bones was abandoned "(Grass). The girl's lovelorn mood is also shocking, and the affectionate words are like songs. "I listened to the music on the clouds and the songs on the grass, and tears poured out of my young eyes like spring water" (Tiangeer). These languages are like poems and songs, and the pearls full of emotion are sprinkled on the green grass, which is a unique and Aladdin-style language model. Undoubtedly, it is this strong music matrix and rich language rhythm that makes readers feel the purification of the soul and the stretching of emotions, and they are influenced by grassland culture in an extremely natural state.
