Abstract

This essay intends to focus on pure and mere familial father-son relationship to trace traditional Chinese family patterns and discuss the new trend of father-son relationship. In accordance with the three themes “fu ci zi xiao”, “patricide” and “re-identification”, this essay explores three stages of harmony, conflict, and introspection to analyse, compare, and critique the track of father-son relationships in Bai Xianyong’s novel Crystal Boys (1983) and Li An’s film The Wedding Banquet (1993).
