This paper briefly describes the trajectory of the transmutation of the prose style of the pre Qin Z

The emergence of Xunzi and Han Feizi marks the maturity of the parliamentary system. Most of the essays of "Xunzi" are long essays, with many articles, clear arguments, sufficient arguments, and complete structures, and have become mature special topics. Since then, this genre has become the dominant form of Chinese speculative prose.

Han Feizi developed the expressiveness and persuasiveness of Xunzi Yi**, and raised the writing level of Yi** to a new height. He also collected, organized, and composed a large number of fables, making fables an independent literary genre.

1 In terms of ideological content, the prose of the pre-Qin princes insisted on independent thinking, expressing their own opinions, and speaking freely. For example, Confucius advocated benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and happiness, Mozi advocated loving the sage, Zhuangzi advocated natural inaction, and Han Feizi advocated divine power.

2.Stylistically, the prose of the pre-Qin princes had its own personality and style. For example, "Analects" is simple and subtle, and "Mozi" is simple and clear, and good at analogy.

Mencius is strong and eloquent, Zhuangzi is wild in writing, Xunzi is strong and meticulous, and the metaphor is rich. Han Feizi is powerful and dangerous, and his arguments are incisive.

3.In terms of language, the prose of the pre-Qin princes made good use of metaphors, and they were more profound than imagery. For example, in "Zhuangzi Fable XIX", the introduction is connected, the imagery is profound, and it is the highest among the hundred sons.

4.In terms of stylistic development, the prose of the pre-Qin Zhuzi first established a system of argumentation. From the transcript to the monograph with clear arguments, sufficient arguments, rigorous logic and complete structure, it shows the overall characteristics of the development of China's parliament.

In addition, some of the story narratives in the prose of the pre-Qin princes are quite similar to **, which provides nourishment for later narrative literature.

Pre-Qin prose is the source of Chinese prose. It is mainly preserved in the "Shangshu", "Spring and Autumn", "Zuo Chuan", "Chinese" and "Warring States Policy". It includes pre-Qin narrative essays such as "Zuo Chuan" and "Chinese" and pre-Qin speculative essays such as "Analects" and "Zhuangzi".

In the pre-Qin period, the boundary between literature and non-literature was not clear. At that time, prose could only be said to be a genre opposed to poetry, basically philosophical, political, ethical, historical prose and narrative. However, because of its strong literary nature, it had a great influence on the development of Chinese literature, so it was regarded as an important part of pre-Qin literature.

The characteristic is that this Zhuzi prose generally talks about some truths, and may use metaphors in terms of language, which is more convincing, and Zhuzi's prose is also very distinctive, very incisive, and finally uses a system of debate to say this truth.

It is characterized by the fact that the prose of scholars generally speaks of some truth. They may use metaphors in their language, which is more convincing. In addition, the prose of the scholars is also distinctive and incisive. Finally, they use a system of debate to illustrate this fact.

It has particularly distinctive characteristics, ideologically advocates expressing one's own opinions, thinking independently, making good use of metaphors in language, and has a particularly complete argument, and in terms of ideological creation, it has had a particularly far-reaching impact on China's political system, culture and art for thousands of years.

Most of the metaphors were used, and there were a lot of ideas at that time, and it also made people think independently, and the authors had their own styles, and they all had their own characteristics, and there were many philosophical truths.

Different works reflect different ideas, use different rhetorical techniques, and the ideas are more active, and the works are artistic and have a unique and brilliant characteristic.

It can be divided into historical prose and Zhuzi prose, and the system of expression is also different, the meaning of expression is also different, and the views expressed and some cultural languages are different.

The prose of the pre-Qin princes was produced in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The development of the prose of the pre-Qin Zhuzi can be divided into three stages. From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the Warring States Period, the representative works include Taoism.

Lao Tzu. , the Confucian Analects

Mozi's Mozi

Lao Tzu highly summarizes the Taoist view in the form of a short philosophical poem. The Analects are mostly short quotations, and many aphorisms and aphorisms represent the essence of Confucianism.

Mozi gradually has the basic mode of discourse, but it is simple and unwritten. In the middle of the Warring States period, it was represented as "Mencius".

and the Zhuangzi, which began to move away from the body of quotations. Mencius mostly uses dialogue to explain reason, while Zhuangzi uses more allegory and metaphor in addition to dialogue. Both books are vivid, reasonable, and turbulent, with a relatively strong literary color.

In the late Warring States period, "Xunzi" and "Han Feizi".

They are not only a collection of individual essays, but also a well-organized and systematic academic treatise. The topics are concentrated, the logic is rigorous, the reasoning is thorough, and the rhetoric is rich, which represents the highest achievement of the pre-Qin reasoning prose.

Although these prose essays are different in complexity and simplicity, different styles and styles, the process of their development is from simple to complex, from combing to dense, from miscellaneous to rigorous and systematic, and the color of literature has become more and more intense. Among them, "Zhuangzi", "Mencius", "Han Feizi" and "Xunzi" are the most literary value.

During the Spring and Autumn Period of the pre-Qin period and the Warring States Period, Zhuzi swarmed, and a hundred schools of thought contended, and they wrote books and debated with each other, thus promoting the development of Zhuzi's prose. The development of Zhuzi's prose can be divided into three periods, which are listed below:

1. The first period was from the end of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the Warring States Period. The main works of "Analects and Radicals" and "Laozi" are simple words and profound and rich meanings, while "Mozi" basically forms the form of essays.

2. The second period is the middle of the Warring States period. His main works include Mencius and Zhuangzi, and the rhetoric of this period is more complex than that of the previous period, and the arguments are more fluent and powerful.

3. The third period is the end of the Warring States period. His main works include "Xunzi", "Han Feizi" and so on. His representative articles are well-structured, in-depth analysis, fluent and logical.

The essays of the pre-Qin princes are theoretical works that expound philosophy, but they also have high literary value. From a literary point of view, among the works of the Warring States Period, Mencius and Zhuangzi have the highest literary value and a more important position in the history of literature. Xunzi and Han Feizi are known for their essays, which have had a great influence on the development of later essays.

The prose of the pre-Qin Zhuzi is the most Chinese is "Zhuangzi".

Zhuangzi, also known as the Nanhua Sutra, is a summary of Taoist doctrines written by Zhuangzi and Blind Zao in the middle and late Warring States period. The Zhuangzi also offers a profound critique of instrumental rationality. The Zhuangzi further puts forward the idea of "getting carried away".

After arriving in the Han Dynasty, Zhuangzi was respected as a real person in Nanhua, so "Zhuangzi" is also known as "Burying and Dismantling Nanhua Jing". His books, together with "Lao Tzu" and "Zhou Yi", are collectively known as "Three Xuan".

The book "Zhuangzi" mainly reflects Zhuangzi's critical philosophy, art, aesthetics, aesthetics, etc. It is rich in content, broad and profound, covering many aspects such as philosophy, life, politics, society, art, and cosmogenesis.

Zhuangzi's essays, imaginary fantasy, ingenious conception, colorful ideological world and literary artistic conception, the writing is unbridled, with a romantic artistic style, magnificent and treacherous, and the meaning is out of the dust, which is a model work of the articles of the pre-Qin Zhuzi.

Zhuangzi's words seem to be boastful and boundless, but they all have a foundation and are more important than historical data. Mr. Lu Xun said: "Its text is full of oceans, demeanor, and the works of the sons of the late Zhou Dynasty can not be the first." It is known as "the nine streams of tongs, including 100 clans".

Zhuangzi is not only a philosophical masterpiece, but also a model of literary and aesthetic allegorical masterpieces. It has an inseparable and far-reaching impact on the development of Chinese literature and aesthetics. The publication and research of Zhuangzi's fables have enabled the inheritance and development of the excellent traditions of Chinese culture and the development of the spirit of the Chinese nation.
