Abstract

Azorín is a representative writer of the Generation of 1898. His books, once translated into Chinese in the 1920s, aroused the interest and admiration of the writers of the Beijing literary school, and more or less influenced the creations of Wang Zengqi, Bian Zhilin, Lu Fen, He Qifang, Tang Tao, Li Guangtian and others. This paper consists of five sections. The first chapter gives a brief introduction to Azorín and the writers of Beijing Literary School and points out the purpose of this paper. The second chapter takes Wang Zengqi, Bian Zhilin and Lu Fen’s works as examples to expound the influence of Azorín on the writers of the Beijing Literary School from three aspects: stylistic features, image application and material selection. The third chapter then analyzes the reasons for this effect. In the fourth chapter, the author thinks about the factors that influence the international dissemination of literary works and draws great inspiration in the creation and diffusion of national literatures from this research. The fifth chapter concludes what has been stated above, and emphasizes that the open attitude of the writers of Beijing Literary School toward foreign literature can bring some enlightment to promoting the contemporary national literature creation being more eclectic and inclusive.
