In the practice of participating in and leading the revolution, Yun Daiying formed his individual theory of “revolutionary literature”, which was just the chief implication of his ideology of art. He sketched the initial framework of neodemocratic theory of art by expounding the means of creation of literature and art from the perspective of the artist’s emotive attainment, elaberating the stage implications of artistic functions from the angle of antiimperialism and antiinactivedemand, and clarifying such empirical recognitions as ideological orientation of artistic development in terms of the objective of artistic popularization. All these ideas are of important reference to constructing the cause of Chinacharacteristic socialist literature and art.
