Nowadays, the literary practice of some writers has presented a “Fusion of elegance and vulgarity” writing style. “Elegance” and “Vulgarity” have been important angles of view for scholars to understand Chinese literature and art since ancient times. Therefore, based on collecting relevant authoritative literature, this paper analyzes some academic research results and explores the literary creation style of “Suit all taste” in Zhao Shuli’s works. This paper shows that the relationship between “Elegance” and “Vulgarity” is dynamic and the boundary between them is fuzzy. There are also several limitations when defining both of them. As a typical feature of Zhao Shuli’s novels, “Suit all taste” is embodied in artistic form, characterization, and ideology. This kind of creation idea not only affects the local literature but also has a profound influence on modern and contemporary literature, providing the theory support for the literature creation. From this, “Elegance” and “Vulgarity” mutual integration, is an important element of modern literary creation.References
