Please tell me in detail about the characteristics of Chinese detective mystery novels, because I read mostly foreign detective mystery novels and rarely read domestic ones. 1. In terms of the function of novels, Chinese detective novels emphasize the educational function. Cheng Xiaoqing: Detective novels are "scientific textbooks with makeup." Western detective novels highlight their recreational and entertainment functions. Chinese modern detective novels play a role in recreational and entertainment functions. At the same time, it also pays more attention to the social function of "enlightenment" and "textbook" for citizen readers. Sun Liaohong's "Blood Paper Man" promotes the idea of ??karma. The protagonist Wang Junxi 2. In terms of the basis for handling cases, Chinese detective novels pay more attention to emotion. Chinese detective novels generally have two standards, one is to use legal standards to judge right and wrong, and the other is to use moral standards Standards judge good and evil. In Chinese detective novels, moral judgment is always higher than legal judgment. Cheng Xiaoqing's "White Veil from the Hawthorne Series" "Within the scope of justice, we are not bound by rigid laws. Sometimes when we encounter those who commit crimes out of justice, we often deal with them freely. Because this gradually tends to In a society where materialism is the focus, the spirit of the rule of law cannot be universally implemented, and weak civilians are often unprotected by the law, so we have to act expediently based on conscience." 3. In terms of novel themes, Chinese detective writers pay attention to the various strange phenomena manifested in the conflicts between the old and the new under the gradually enlightened atmosphere of the times, criticize the injustice of justice, criticize the remnants of feudal thought, and criticize the educational system at that time for women. Focus on the problem Thoughts on the issue of moral aberration Cheng Xiaoqing's "The Man in Gray" Anonymous --- Injustice in the judiciary and imperfection of the law "The Fire of Youth" Zhang Xiaoqin 4. In Chinese detective novels, the dominance of private detectives and official detectives The auxiliary detective novels generally consist of three aspects of people: private detectives, official detectives and criminals, representing different interests. Detective novels are always dominated by private detectives. Therefore, detective novels actually safeguard personal interests and mock national interests. In terms of legal consciousness, the Chinese people have always been combined with the "consciousness of honest officials." "Consciousness of upright officials" is "national consciousness". Chinese detective novel writers have adopted a workaround: official detectives are not stupid, but private detectives are smarter. 5. The civilian consciousness of Chinese detective novels The civilian consciousness of Chinese detective novels vs the elite consciousness of Western detective novels Chinese detective novelists are all citizen writers, with themes such as civilian consciousness, awareness of supporting the weak and punishing the strong, blood relations, citizen life, etc. Chinese detective novels mainly show the lives of middle- and lower-class people in cities. The protagonists of the cases are often dancers, clerks, young students and other minor figures in urban prostitutes.
