Two themes: 1, loss of object; 2, the schizophrenia of post-revolutionary time. The significance of language survival lies in its ability to be used continuously in a larger public space, that is, sociality. Value becomes incomprehensible, stable and social if it is independent of use value. In the process of rising from object to signifier, some people stubbornly believe that only original object is meaningful, and any semantic escalation is rootless duckweed, that is, refusing to recognize the role of history on object. In essence, existence itself is a process of accumulating wind and frost in the tempering of history. Therefore, the inheritance and writing of any meaningful history needs to recognize that 1. History is social and developing, not private and static; 2. Language with use value should be continuously tempered in social reality. The heroine's writing of her husband's history has stalled because of the upheaval. Her husband disappeared, and her loss turned the record itself into a ritualistic worship. After being dumped in the torrent of history, she only remembers the original appearance. The real husband loses its meaning. In fact, what really lost its meaning was her language, her time, and her relationship with society. But it was her husband's last companionship that gave all this meaning back.
