Mo Yan's Reception and Variation of Márquez——The Example of One Hundred Years of Solitude and Red Sorghum
Abstract
Mo Yan had accepted Márquez's works, and through cross-cultural transmission and Mo Yan's personalized creation, this acceptance has emerged as a type of variation in Mo Yan's works, showing the characteristics of Chinese national culture and civil society. This paper intends to apply the Variation theory of comparative literary, taking One Hundred Years of Solitude and Red Sorghum as examples, to study Mo Yan's acceptance and variations of Márquez from three aspects: narrative, characterization and use of imageries, and to explore the cultural reasons and significance behind the variations.
