There was an event that not only created a huge wave in the Chinese literary ideology, especially in the history of the Chinese modern literature of the last century, but also caused a significant sensation around the world. It was none other than the receiving of the Nobel Prize in Literature by Gao Xingiian, which was followed by another wave a decade later of receiving of the Nobel Prize in Literature by Mo Yan. In some ways, it was the unprecedented event in the history of the Chinese literary ideology. It was truly a shocking event that Chinese people became the consecutive recipients of the world-renowned Nobel Prize in Literature. It raised a controversy that there were impure political intentions behind such receipts even though its significance should be placed on the receiving of the Nobel Prize in Literature itself. The reason was because the receiving of the Prize by the two writers, Gao Xingiian and Mo Yan, has different interpretative meanings even though the both are Chinese. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to analyze the literary significance of their receiving of the Nobel Prize in Literary, as well as their respective literary works, and analyze their literary and political significances to reexamine the significance of the Nobel Prize in Literature.
