What are the main types of literary styles?

Writing is an important means for human beings to communicate information through written language. In the complicated and rich social life, people's language communication has achieved different communicative functions according to different communication fields, communication objects, communication contents and communication methods. Therefore, people consciously choose and arrange language materials in language communication, so that language materials have different functions and form different language use characteristics systems and ways, which is style.

Style can be divided into oral style and written style, and the writing language mainly uses written style. Written language is a visual language formed on the basis of oral language, which has the characteristics of systematicness, standardization, rigor and stability. Functionally, genres are generally divided into four types, namely, news genre, theoretical genre, applied genre and literary genre, and each genre has its own stylistic characteristics. Among them, literary style is the one that the majority of writing enthusiasts and readers contact most, and it is also the one that changes the most and is the most difficult to master. This paper focuses on the analysis of his literary style.

First of all, what is literary style? What are the basic characteristics of style? The so-called style refers to a language that matches a certain literary genre, such as poetry, prose and drama, and can show its characteristics. This style often attaches great importance to the distinctness and harmony of language rhythm, which makes people read fluently and beautifully, that is, it has obvious musicality. Secondly, literary styles often use word changes and various rhetorical devices to enrich the connotation of works, so as to achieve the purpose of suggestion. Finally, literary style also pays attention to the use of words with dynamic sense, modal sense, color sense and three-dimensional sense to fully express the emotional thinking of the writing subject, so that readers can not only feel the artistic image depicted in the works, but also arouse readers' further imagination and thinking about the works, that is to say, literary style also has the characteristics of image and emotion.

Knowing the above two basic questions about literary style, many people who love literary writing may ask such a question: Since literary style has the characteristics of music, implication, image and emotion, how should we use and appreciate these characteristics in specific writing and reading activities? Let's analyze it from four characteristics of style.

(1) Harmonious melody and distinct rhythm make the work full of musical beauty. Liu Xie said in "Wen Xin Diao Long Cai Qing": "Therefore, there are three ways to establish a text: first, it is the shape of a text with five colors; Second, the sound text, five tones also; Three is love, and so is five. Five colors are mixed together, and five shades contrast to form a summer. Five natures are the words, and the number of gods is also. " In other words, while paying attention to "writing for love", the article should also "combine words to gather wisdom" according to the specific situation in order to achieve the ideal effect of "gentleness". Although literary style requires language to be implicit, profound and rich, it often puts the musicality of language in a very important position. Musicality here refers to the characteristics of literary language organization rich in musical effects. When organizing literary language, writers should not only pursue "meaning" but also "sound", and sometimes even reorganize the language for the sake of sound, or make meaning completely subordinate to sound.

(2) It is thought-provoking by means of metaphor and symbol.

The meaning of a word can be divided into original meaning and variant meaning. The original meaning refers to the image taken from the early writing form and the meaning it represents. The change of word meaning refers to the development and change of the usage of words in expressing meaning. There are many changes, such as figurative meaning and symbolic meaning, which are all changes to the original meaning. In "Wen Xin Diao Long Bi Xing", it is said: "It is a metaphor to look at a husband's wealth, graceful and logical, and his name is small and big", which means that rhetorical devices such as wealth and prosperity are euphemistic and orderly, and the things entrusted are small, but the explanation is of great significance. Indeed, sometimes if an article is written too solidly, it will be "not far without words". Being straightforward is a kind of calmness, while being subtle is also a kind of beauty.

(3) "When the stream lingers in Vientiane, you meditate on the audio-visual area; Writing about the appearance of things can't just take things around; It is attached to the sound, and it is also lingering with the heart. "

This passage in Wen Xin Diao Long Search means that everything in the Spring and Autumn Period affected people's mood and actions. People who are good at observing and writing will make endless associations according to their own characteristics: they will cling to 10,000 kinds of objects, meditate and sing in their eyes and ears, and write down descriptions and pictures. They will not only describe things diplomatically according to their size, but also combine words and twists according to their inner ups and downs. In short, in the process of writing, under the premise of carefully observing the object of writing, we should grasp the characteristics of things, or describe their shapes, or describe their colors, or simulate their modality, or build their space, or harmonize their colors ... In short, we should strive to create a colorful and emotional image world for readers with language, build their aesthetic palace and spiritual home with language, and fully mobilize their imagination and enthusiasm for text reconstruction. Specifically, we can start from the following aspects:

1. Use more dynamic words.

Dynamic words often fill the lines of works with an irresistible vitality and tension, which makes the images of works have dynamic appeal.

2. Make good use of words full of color sense.

Words expressing color in the article will not only make the article lively, but also make the image of the work colorful and dazzling, which will make people linger and be fascinated.

3. Use the language full of modality skillfully.

What is modality? Chinese dictionary definition: ① Jude's situation. 2 expression. ③ Human feelings and attitudes. 4 charming demeanor. From these explanations, we can sum up what kind of language has modal significance: using rhetorical devices such as metaphor and personification, the objective image has human emotions, situations and expressions, and the language is full of dynamic beauty and the emotional experience of the writing subject.

4. Reuse words with three-dimensional sense.
