The choice of the author's name depended on the theme and emotional expression of the novel. Under normal circumstances, the first person could better show the inner world and emotional changes of the characters, allowing the readers to experience the plot of the novel more immersively. However, if the main plot of the novel was about historical events and historical figures, then using the third person would be more objective and fair, and it would maintain the authority and credibility of history. Therefore, the choice of person to use depended on the specific situation of the novel.
