Abstract: After the ebb tide of the “Great Revolution”,Mao Dun fell into a state of confusion and disillusionment about his future.He reflected on his revolutionary process,had a new understanding of the personality emancipation thought formed in the May 4th period,and then analyzed the problems in the revolution.During his stay in Japan,the identity of a revolutionary “bystander” made him summarize the revolutionary movement he had just experienced with a rational and objective attitude,eliminate the remaining feudal thoughts among the revolutionaries,and promote class consciousness,which became the main driving force to stimulate his creation.In Wild Rose,he analyzed the resistance that prevented the revolutionaries from realizing their ideological independence with five marriage and love stories,and expressed his desire to coordinate the relationship between “group” and “oneself”.
