On the Plague Writing of Chi Zijian's White Snow Crow
White Snow Crow is a novel written by Chi Zijian with a theme of disease,and it is also a representative work of plague writing since the new era.From the history of plague writing in modern and contemporary Chinese literature,plague writing has to some extent inherited the tradition of disease writing in modern and contemporary Chinese literature,but at the same time,it has presented a new quality that cannot be ignored,enriched the new writing direction of plague narrative,and completed the"magnificent turn"of plague narrative.Plague no longer bears the heavy social responsibility and cultural implication in the tradition of disease writ-ing,but returns to the disease itself,restores the subjective position of plague in the novel,and uses it as the direct driving force and narrative logic of the text narration,presents the living state of anonymous individuals in the plague,and has a profound insight into the existence of the essence behind the plague.From the therapeutic function of literature,the traumatic nature of the plague makes Chi Zijian's plague writing play an important role in spiritual healing,which also provides Chinese experience for how to write contemporary plague stories.
