Examination of Mo Yan's novels led to a realization that psychic trauma of varying degrees is prevalent in his writings. In response to this, this paper begins by discussing historical violence as an underlying cause of psychic trauma. Historical violence here refers specifically to the discourse of violence emerged from Fascist aesthetics and manifested in the rhetorical expressions of Mao Zedong during the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. At that time, the discourse of violence rose as a prominent, if not the only, form of historical discourse. Such dominance was found to have long-lasting impacts on Mo Yan's novels as well. Then, this paper adopts a psychoanalytic approach to examine the distinguishing feminine features that characterize Mo Yan's novels. The constant association of feminine traits with consumption, excretion, and sex sheds light on the writer's unconscious fear and apprehension toward these impulses. His attempt to repress the feminine elements is also evident by the implementation of another equally powerful symbolic mechanism throughout his novels. In addition to the feminine imagery of consumption, excretion, and sex, Mo Yan's novels are filled with the rhetoric of masculinity, purity, and violence, all of which are core to Fascist Aesthetics. This phenomenon indicates that the dominant historical discourse in the past fails to fully represent the symbolic system of social order in the new period. While Mo Yan is using the above-mentioned method to repair memory, he is also triggering the historical trauma stemmed from the previous experience of violence and rejection. It actually exhibits a distinctive emotional state in the new period literature.
