Abstract: Some new features of lyricism grew out from Shen Congwen’s novels in 1940s. As a typical example, the lyricism of A Fine Day after Snow got more plentiful meanings than those of his novels before. The narrative course became more complicated and the life form entered a deeper and wider historical view. These changes not only showed the anxiety of mordentity he tried to integrate the exterior world with his subjective experience, but also proved Shen’s great efforts at exploring the limit of literary lyricism in 1940s.
