Abstract: Shen Congwen is one of the few pure writers on Local Literature? in the histony of modern Chinese literature. In his literary creation, he applies the meta-discourse of Authentic Being to the reflection of the Subject-I-Think on self. His works of art are universally acknowledged as the classics by the society. Whereas he himself stands on the opposite side of the society from the very beginning to the end. In the paradox that the literary works of art are of social significance and the author himself or herself stands on the opposite side of the society, Shen Congwen?s existence mode of ?authentic? dissolves the independence of the latter, retains the subject’s reflection in social life of th
e former and safeguards the independent Being of the subject on subject, which is the right embodiment of the authentic existence mode of the reflective subject in literary creation practice and thinking paradigm, representing Shen Congwen dilatation and tension in this literary creation.

Key words: authentic, Being, aesthetic refection, Shen Congwen
