What are scar literature, reflection literature and reform literature in the new period?

"Scar literature" is the first literary trend of thought in the new period. The expression of "Scar Literature" originated from the short story Scar published by 1978 in August, and the real work is The Head Teacher published by Liu Yu 1977 in June. The Red Magnolia under the Wall by Cong, The Fairy Tale in Winter by Luo Jin, The Legend of Tianyunshan by Lv Yanzhou and Xu Mao and His Daughters by Zhou Keqin are also important works. These works have exposed the disasters of the Cultural Revolution, described people's tragic experiences in the Cultural Revolution and left irreparable internal injuries in people's souls, which have strong emotional impact.

"Reflective literature" is the second literary trend of thought after "scar literature" in the new period. Representative writers' works include: Misedited Story by Ru Zhijuan, Story of Prisoner Li Tongzhong by Zhang Yigong, Building a House in Li Shun by Gao Xiaosheng, Middle Age by Chen Rong, Corner Forgotten by Love by Zhang Xian, Love Can't be Forgotten by Zhang Jie and Soul and Body by Zhang Xianliang. The works focus on the historical facts of the Cultural Revolution, seventeen years or even earlier, dig the roots of practical problems from the aspects of ideology and national character, and begin to think about the value of "people".

After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, many writers began to look at reality from history and pay attention to the reform and development in reality, forming a popular "reform literature"; Jiang Zilong's "Director Joe Takes Office" is recognized as the opening work of "reform literature"; Others such as Chen Huansheng Series, He Xiang Chang, Black Baby Photo, Jia Ping 'ao's Jiwowa Family, Ke Yunlu's New Star, and The Day of the Director of Electrical and Mechanical Services, etc. Emphasis on affirming the new atmosphere of rural and urban reform and thinking about the obstacles and hot and difficult issues in the process of reform embodies the writer's extensive thinking about society and the times.
