Due to space limitations, except for some short stories, most works are excerpted. To facilitate readers' comprehension and help them grasp the overall outline of the works, brief introductions to the writers (or works) are provided before each selected text, along with general summaries and overviews of the selected works' content. This book can be used for foreign literature courses in Chinese departments or majors at universities, as well as for students and teachers at other liberal arts colleges, radio and television universities, part-time universities, and for learning and reference.
