Fantasy novel?

Fantasy novel is a type of novel, and its ideological content is often profound, mysterious, fantastic and magnificent. Not limited by science and humanities, nor by time and space, inspirational and passionate, let the author's imagination play freely. It is closely related to sci-fi, fantasy, martial arts and other fantasy novels.

It is generally believed that the word fantasy novel was put forward by Huang Yi, a Hong Kong writer, with the original meaning of "fantasy novel based on fantasy". The so-called metaphysical factor is the explanation, description and exploration of Taoism, Yijing Shushu, folklore, the theory of ghosts and gods and spatiality.

At present, fantasy novel is mainly popular in network culture, and the largest category of fantasy novel is the novel of fixing truth, which can be almost equated with each other, while most articles of fixing truth contain heaven and monsters, which are ups and downs.

That is, it focuses on the explanation, description and exploration of Taoist thought, Yijing Shushu, folklore, supernatural state and mysticism. With the rise of online literature in the late 1990s, the number of novels published on the Internet is increasing day by day. Some Demonbane-style adventure stories were once classified as RPG (role-playing) novels. However, with the expansion and diversification of story themes, people began to use the word fantasy novel to classify these novels, which quickly spread in the online community.

After 2000, due to the loose and vague definition of genre, in principle, all fantasy novel who can't be clearly classified into traditional categories such as science fiction, martial arts and horror can be classified as fantasy novel, so its definition is obviously beyond Huang Yi's original idea of using this word.

The types covered by fantasy novel are generally close to the English word "fantasy". About the same time as the word fantasy became popular, the word fantasy was also introduced into Chinese for fantasy translation. However, because the usage of these two words does not overlap much, they have different meanings. For the community accustomed to translating fantasy into fantasy, fantasy means "a China fantasy novel with multiple elements such as fantasy, science fiction, martial arts, Xian Xia and silence".

For the communities who are used to calling fantasy novel fantasy, they sometimes call fantasy fantasy, and sometimes use the word magic to refer to fantasy novel in Europe and America, with special emphasis on its supernatural and magical characteristics.

When did the fantasy begin? I'm afraid there are different opinions. The Classic of Mountains and Seas and Search for Ji Shen may be the source, and The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan should be the originator of modern fantasy. But the term "fantasy novel" came from Huang Yi and was recorded. [1] The definition of fantasy novel is still controversial. Ye Yonglie, a science fiction writer, said that science fiction, magic and fantasy novel are three kinds of fantasy novel. This classification method is widely recognized. The so-called fantasy novel is a series of stories based on hypothetical situations. The differences are as follows: science fiction is based on science, with Frankenstein by British writer mary shelley as its first masterpiece; Magic novels are based on myths, represented by the Lord of the Rings and the Dragon Gun.

Fantasy novel is a craze in Chinese mainland, which is based on fantasy, goes further and more freely than magic novel, and is not bound by scientific basis, so it has more fantasy space. Huang Yi can be regarded as the representative of China's modern fantasy novels, and his imaginative power is more fully reflected in Zhai Yunyehe's Walking in the Ancient Days, which crosses the eternal mysterious "Hutuluo Book" of the East into the endless Milky Way and combines the concept of the starry sky with the concept of the universe.

The number and variety of China's fantasy novels have gathered all these elements. The most popular fantasy novel's "Wandering Journey" on the Internet begins by saying: "Maybe we will see the continuation of ancient China; Maybe you will see advanced civilization; Maybe you will see an attractive magic weapon; Maybe you will see the remains of the gods; Maybe you will see medieval castles in the west; Maybe you will see all kinds of strange beasts; This is the journey of wandering. "

Only from here can we see that mysterious fantasy has nothing to do with metaphysics, but an endless and unrestrained fantasy. However, Zhai Ye Yunhe, a newly popular writer, pointed out more directly in his related works, that fantasy novel's creation will always be free by burying the evil book shortage and rejecting the old and rigid online articles.

Systematization of human cultivation in novels. Systematization of nonhuman cultivation. Finally, the world of man and beast, the world of shemale and the world of Warcraft.

Fantasy: there is no such word in the dictionary, but from the word-formation structure of "fantasy", it can be analyzed that the concept of "fantasy" should be an imagination with "mystery" as the background. Then, the meaning of "Xuan" can be checked: 1, a profound and mysterious way; 2. The ontology of spiritual universe. Throughout the literary work "Fantasy" that we call "fantasy novel", the content is really "mysterious and unpredictable". A large number of "fantasy novel" contains China's martial arts and strategies, western magic, science fiction, or special functions, and even more myths, and often China, Indian and Greek myths coexist among them.

Xianxia

Xianxia novels can be understood as "chivalry+immortals", that is, martial arts novels and characters pursue self-cultivation, pay attention to traditional culture and integrate with martial arts novels through experience. Fantasy novel-style imagination is more chivalrous and has the' moral spirit' of chivalrous culture. The appearance of this word has also stimulated young people's interest in Taoist classics and their speculation about human evolution, prehistoric civilization and higher life in the classics to a certain extent.

The theme of Xian Xia's novels is relatively narrow, mainly divided into two trends: martial arts and romance, and the readers are also different. The more famous novels are Zhu Xian, The Legend of the Swordsman in Shushan, The Question of the Fairy Sword, The Legend of the Fairy Sword and the Legend of the Chivalrous Man. At the beginning of the year, under the bodhi tree of Sansheng III, the fruity Huadu became popular on the Internet.

Xiuzhen

The novel of fixing truth is the largest category in the network fantasy novel.

The theme of the novels of fixing truth comes from the development of Xianxia novels, Shenmo novels and martial arts novels, some of which are mixed with realistic online pop culture and western classical culture. However, like Xian Xia's novels, it is a new novel genre developed according to the local Taoist cultivation culture in China, so some people say that it is a pair of brothers with Xian Xia's novels, and some of Xian Xia's novels are really difficult to distinguish from Xiuzhen's novels.

Compared with Xian Xia's novels, Xiuzhen's novels pay great attention to the description of cultivation realm, and are divided into different types according to different novels. Generally speaking, the protagonist reaches a higher level through (similar to) Taoist secret cultivation.

The greatest feature of the novel of fixing truth is the description of the level of cultivation. This is the biggest difference from Xian Xia's novels. The novels of Xiuzhen are often more illusory and mysterious than Xian Xia's novels. The movement is the ancient god, the catastrophe of the Three Realms, and even the strange continent, time travel, and Star Wars. Because the subject matter is basically unconstrained, it is more easily accepted by young people.

It is not found in the dictionary, and there is no accurate definition in the Chinese concept. After checking the relevant information, most people think that fantasy can be interpreted as "legend". What is a legend? From the perspective of China's cultural history, Ci Hai said that legends are stories with bizarre plots or extraordinary behaviors of characters. From the perspective of western cultural history, it is "a long story poem in medieval European knight literature, mainly describing knight's love and ranger's adventures". When it comes to fantasy, people often associate it with elves, dwarves and vampires. In fact, this is just a narrow expansion of the concept of Nordic mythology. In Europe and America, Dungeons and Dragons (usually abbreviated as D&; D, a table TRPG game, has played an important role in promoting the development of fantasy novel.

Rich and colorful imagination.

Fantasy literature is the freest in system and the most enjoyable in theme among the three fantasy novel. Whether it is the architecture of the virtual world or the legendary experience of people, it is rich and colorful and whimsical. It emphasizes the word "Xuan", which goes further than magic in content and freer than science fiction in form, leaving more room for imagination.

Novel and unique ideas and complete system settings.

Conception is an essential step before writing. Good creativity can make people get twice the result with half the effort, writing like a god, and inspiration like a tide; How to unfold the story and how to set up the background system are two points that must be considered first.

How the story unfolds depends on the beginning. A good beginning is half the battle.

Like other novel categories, the so-called fantasy novel may be just a bookseller's strategy of putting on shelves, and there may not be a clear definition to prevent a novel from being accidentally kicked out or being classified into this category. In other words, there is a big fuzzy zone. A clear indicator can let you know that a novel may be closer or farther away from this category, which is the so-called "established element". When readers repeatedly see these elements, they tend to think that they belong to this category, no matter how critical or critical the academic school is, or the author himself hates being classified into this category.

4 basic type editing

Overhead world

It has become a common practice to take the Lord of the Rings as the novel stage and make up a world. But before that, some of these worlds seemed to communicate with the earth through mirrors or tree holes. In order to prove the author's imagination, it is not unusual to put the world on the back of a tortoise shell or an elephant. It is no longer a novel idea to arrange continuous waterfalls on the outer edge of the world to make anything that falls disappear forever. You can simply let the world sit in a huge bubble at the bottom of the sea, or let all intelligent creatures in the world above have the ability to fly or float and nest in the bottomless atmosphere. There must be more cool and cool ideas.

An inhuman intelligent creature/race

A creature or abiotic who is obviously not human tries or takes it for granted to communicate smoothly with the characters in the story. In their self-introduction, they may say that they are from Andromeda or the core cluster. In some novels, such a race may have its own specialties, society, culture and even evolutionary branches, such as goblins and dwarves; In other works, it may just be a talking playing card. In any case, they grew up in this way, or are described in this way, mostly to perform something that humans can't do in the story, such as opening their mouths to breathe fire, performing magic or playing a stud game without external props. In addition to aliens, the story also needs to carefully scrutinize some inhuman intelligent creatures, for example, they are called angels, demons or gods. But there are also many times when this story is completed from serious religious propaganda motives. For believers, these may not exist in reality, but they may just be hard to find biological or non-biological, and undoubtedly have human-like or superhuman wisdom. As long as the religion they believe in claims so.

The strange religious system of God's Word

The more famous a work is, the more trouble it may bring to the author by alluding to religion in reality will be avoided. Therefore, when he touched on issues related to faith, whether fantasy, science fiction or fantasy novel, a fabricated myth and religious system came into being. Of course, sometimes fictional gods appear not for such noble reasons, but only because a group of more powerful guys will make irreplaceable and important contributions to the dramatic development of the story.

Imagination and fiction about the origin of the world

In many fantasy novels, there are imaginations about the origin of the world. Fantasy novel involves power, even the ultimate and original power, and inevitably involves the imagination of the origin of the world. For example, the metaphysical world is an imagination, and the metaphysical "theory" thinks that a world can be opened up in the human body, which is an imagination. Even some authors, such as "Fighting Heaven and Fighting Sage" returned from a long biography, wrote the concept of "divine discipline", which is similar to the "dynasty" in history. The end of a spiritual training is the beginning of a spiritual training, as if the dynasty had changed.

Fiction and imagination of the end of the world

Creation means new life and vitality, and it is an optimistic and positive attitude, which includes creation and re-creation. Extinction means death and withering, which is a pessimistic and negative attitude, including heavy damage and extinction. Extinction means the end of the world. A strong man with mysterious power wants to destroy the world and attack a world he thinks is ideal because of his prejudice against it, or because he is dissatisfied with it, or because he hates it and wants to die with it. It may also be a super strong person, too high to be cold, who regards destroying the world as a game and as fun. These all come down to the thinking of human nature, which is the ultimate negative energy image of human beings in the novel. This kind of thinking and behavior is absolutely not allowed in this world, so a hero representing the interests of mankind was born. He is the patron saint of the world and the image of the ultimate positive energy of human beings in the novel. Protecting the world is neither conservative nor radical, but a benchmark. Finally, it proves that life is eternal and the end of the world is just a joke.

Biological evolution and imagination of the future world

In the future, human beings will no longer completely follow the laws of nature, but will increase their self-transformation. The ultimate evolutionary state of mankind will be "God", and the ultimate evolutionary state of other species will be "Man". Terran will be upgraded to protoss, with infinite life and extraordinary ability. There is a "God" because of people, and "God" can also create "people". What is God? It refers to haunters in the final state of human evolution. What is Warcraft? It refers to intelligent creatures in the final evolutionary state of animals. The future world is protoss world and World of Warcraft. If robots are not controlled, the world of robots will become the third world.
