Appreciation of works:
The tragedy of legend of 19 is reflected in the absurdity of his life, so it is a typical absurd play influenced by existentialist literature. Existentialism was born in France in 193s, and reached its peak after World War II. Existentialism literature is produced on the basis of existentialism philosophy, which publicizes existentialism philosophy in the form of literature.
It is characterized by more reason than image, the core of which is "existence precedes essence", "the world is absurd" and "life is painful and free to choose". Therefore, "absurdity" and "pain" are the basic themes of existential literature. On the one hand, it describes the absurdity of the capitalist world, on the other hand, it shows human misfortune and destruction, as well as all kinds of negative thoughts and emotions of loneliness, disappointment, fear and world-weariness.
The life of 19 in legend of 19 is like a mirror, which extremely reflects the darkest and most private part of negative thoughts and emotions in modern psychology.
