Introduced the concept of spatial form novels and their importance in modern literature. Spatial form novels emphasize scene construction rather than plot narration, with character actions and thematic clues becoming layout techniques. The narrative time and story time are misaligned, and readers need to grasp the meaning units through rereading and reaction reference. Frank raised the issue of the mechanism of meaning generation in spatial form novels, comparing their meaning units to images in modern poetry, resulting from the ironic effect of image juxtaposition. Mikkelsen identified four major factors that contribute to the structural unity of spatial form novels: interconnected imagery networks, juxtaposed storylines, themes, and stylistic techniques. However, the mechanism of meaning generation in spatial form novels has not yet been systematically studied. This article will follow the principles of genetic research and draw on structural analysis methods to explore the mechanism of meaning generation in spatial form novels, including sorting out the creators' writing motivations, conceptual processes, and artistic concepts, as well as analyzing the dynamics, constituent elements, meaning units, and their interaction mechanisms of the text.

The core meaning unit and expressive function of spatial form novels

Deeply explored the core meaning units and expressive functions of spatial form novels. Spatial form novels are different from traditional linear narratives in that they weaken plot transitions and storylines, and express an individual's current life experience through the core meaning unit of the scene. The author analyzes how writers such as Proust and Woolf capture the spatial representation of the fleeting 'present' through sensory overlap, recollection, meditation, and dreams, achieving a poetic representation of the lost 'present'.

The "Correspondence Method": The Organizational Rule of Meaning Units in Spatial Form Novels

Deeply explored the organizational rules of meaning units in spatial form novels, namely the "counterpoint method". Unlike traditional narrative, spatial form novels use scene construction instead of storytelling, with character actions and thematic clues becoming layout techniques. The narrative time and story time are misaligned, with action units occupying a long time and interspersed with seemingly off topic narratives. Researchers generally believe that the principle of perceptual simultaneity and the "juxtaposition" relationship are key to maintaining the unity of spatial form in novels. Frank compared the components that are independent of the narrative time flow to images in modern poetry, and by suspending the narrative time flow, fixed the focus on the interaction of connections, produced a satirical effect. Ren é t's concept of "spatial form" also emphasizes the layout of symbols, words, and discourse in works that are independent of time and have reversibility.

The emergence of "reflection effect" and the generation of ideological connotations in spatial form novels

In depth exploration of the mechanism of meaning generation in spatial form novels, particularly the transformation from constructive relationships to symbolic relationships among literary text components, and how this transformation relies on cultural traditions and external textual elements in readers' collective memory. The chapter analyzes works such as "Lolita" and "Gentle Night" to demonstrate how spatial form novels stimulate readers' impulse to understand through the interaction of plot and artistic effects, guiding them to delve into the motivations of character actions and the cultural background of fictional worlds.
