Lao She's Humorous Writing Style (Examples)

Lao She once quoted Thackeray in Talking about Humor: "Humorous writers should awaken and guide your love, sympathy and goodwill-your hatred and hatred are unreal, pretend and pretend-and your sympathy is with the weak, the poor, the oppressed and the unfortunate."

Lao She also made it clear: "I lost my irony. Get humor. It is said that there is sympathy in humor. " Therefore, Lao She's humor is not only for teasing or teasing, but also includes his philosophy of doing things and compassion for others.

First of all, concern and sympathy for the fate of the poor is an important theme in Lao She's novels.

Extended data

Most of Lao She's works focus on citizen life. He is good at describing the life and fate of the urban poor, especially the conservative and backward middle and lower class citizens who are soaked by feudal patriarchal ideology under the impact of ethnic contradictions and class struggles and new historical trends. The ambivalence of confusion, hesitation and loneliness, and the ridiculous behavior of being in a dilemma and being at a loss.

He likes to reflect common social conflicts through ordinary daily scenes, and his brushwork often extends to the excavation of national spirit or the thinking of national destiny, which makes people taste the seriousness and heaviness of life from relaxed humor. Colorful natural scenery rendering and meticulous description of customs and human feelings add to the life breath and interest of the works.
