What is the difference between online literature and traditional literature?

1. The mode and scope of the existence of the argument are not identical;

2. The ideological content of the works is different;

3. Different language expressions;

4. Different forms of expression;

5. Different value orientations and evaluation criteria;

6. The creative subject and the reader's participation are different.

Internet literature: Literary works published on the Internet do not have a clear boundary in themselves.

Traditional literature: In the narrow sense and in the broad sense, it refers to the literary genre and style that are different from the square of online literature. Broadly speaking, it refers to the traditional literature that was popular in the past in relation to the new literary popular mode within a certain historical period.

First, the theme is different. Traditional literature has a strong purpose, to critique reality (or humanistic care). The goal of traditional literature is clear.

The online text is pure storytelling, although there are some humanistic feelings in some places, but the theme is mainly a wonderful story, and the others are just incidental. Affection is also the love of children.

Of course, because some traditions** are written very esoteric, and the creative skills are superb (the creative intention is not obvious, I don't know what to express), so we feel that they are all storytelling, why some are online articles, and some are traditional**.

Works with obvious creative intentions (that is, obvious objects of criticism), such as "Beautiful Friends", the recent "Slap" of "People's Literature", and so on, are criticizing reality at first glance. Some intentions are not so obvious, such as "Border City", "Siege", etc.

2. Linguistic depth. The language of the network is also very good, and there are highlights of the network on Zhihu. For example, when writing about a certain dynasty, it is generally written about the Jiajing period, etc., and a certain online article is written, and the other party gives him a coin, and Jiajing is written on the money.

In this way, there is no need to deliberately write about the dynasty, and in the plot of the storytelling, the background is introduced.

3. Tradition**, there are many factions, what magical realism, irony, absurdism, stream of consciousness, etc.

Social Characteristics of Online Literature:

1. The new exploration and liberation of time and space cognition brought about by Internet technology. Zhou Zhixiong proposed: "Compared with traditional martial arts**, gods and demons**, the world territory of online fairy** and fantasy** is much larger.

He listed the development of story space and time in genres such as fantasy, Xianxia, overhead, time-traveling, science fiction, supernatural, and two-dimensional.

This opens up greater possibilities and richness in the character's behavior. To put it simply, the characters can devote themselves to a larger, more novel world mode to live, and the novelty of these world modes is some through the superposition or connection of the world modes shown in the past, and some are completely new.

2. Virtual technology in the Internet era has shaped the public's sense of substitution and experience in these virtual worlds. The so-called virtual reality is "no longer like the present repentant science to deduce the truth through axiomatic deduction, but to use the method of model to create reality." ”

From 2D to 3D to VR, AR, and MR, these technologies continue to break through new heights of immersion experience.

First, the release channels are different.

2. Traditional literature: Traditional literature is mainly through literary periodicals or single books.

Second, the literary nature is different.

1. Online literature: Online literature emphasizes routines and strong dramatic conflicts to make the story more exciting.

2. Traditional literature: Traditional literature does not necessarily have typical bad guys, does not pay attention to the conflict between people and people, or pays more attention to the conflict of inner restraint and relaxation, and the purpose is not to make the story beautiful but to inspire and guide thinking. In addition, traditional literature often has large paragraphs of psychological descriptions in rough skin, which are used to shape characters and explain motives, making Wen Yan's poor book more complete, while online literature is rare.

Third, the purpose is different.

Online literature mainly refers to the Internet**, which is published on the Internet in electronic form for people to read, while traditional literature is more inclined to be published on paper. Of course, a lot of traditional literature has been made into electronic versions for people to read, but traditional literature is generally published first in paper form. What are the main differences between the two?

The main points are as follows.

First, the length of creation is different. The characteristics of the network are that it is updated daily, and the length is huge, generally millions of words, or even more than 10 million words, while the traditional ** is generally more than 100,000 words, hundreds of thousands of words are considered very long, and the length of millions of words is very few, and the length of the network ** is completely incomparable.

Second, the audience of reading sparrows is different, and the Internet is biased towards fast food culture. Readers who like to watch the Internet are more interested in whether the ups and downs of the story are enough, whether the protagonist's sense of substitution is strong enough, and whether they can arouse their own reading pleasure, which are what Internet readers are more concerned about. The tradition is more inclined to the analysis of human nature, the analysis of social problems, the impact of the changes of the times on people, and so on.

Readers who like to read traditional ** may not be able to accept that the online article is too empty, and may not be willing to spend so long chasing millions of words. Return to posture.

Third, the threshold of creation and the way of creation are different. The threshold for online creation is very low, and as long as you register one on the network, you can publish articles that are rent-free and absolutely unrented. Traditional literature, on the other hand, has a lot of review requirements because of the high requirements of paper publication channels.

Therefore, writing traditional literature is often demanding, and it does not mean that it can be published if it is written casually.

The network and the tradition have their own strengths and weaknesses, many networks are also of very high quality, and the paper is not necessarily a high-quality book, so there is no difference between the two, and different cultural needs will give birth to different creative methods.
