Features: This book is a research outcome of the "21st Century Teaching Content and Curriculum System Reform Plan" by the Ministry of Education and is a "21st Century Curriculum Textbook." It is divided into two volumes. The first volume covers literature from Europe and America before the 19th century, while the second volume includes literature from Europe and America in the 20th century and Asian and African literature. The European and American sections are roughly divided into three parts: the pre-19th century, the 19th century, and the 20th century, each accounting for one-third. The inclusion of more contemporary and modern literature aligns with the actual state of foreign literature while also considering the update of concepts and students' interests. The Asian and African literature section is relatively shorter but is still suitable for teaching. This textbook primarily organizes writers under the framework of literary trends and schools, aiming for clarity, conciseness, and a compact structure to facilitate teaching. The textbook is divided into two volumes: the first volume covers literature from Europe and America before the 19th century, while the second volume includes literature from Europe and America in the 20th century and Asian and African literature. In terms of content, modern and contemporary literature outweigh ancient literature, with Asian and African literature occupying an appropriate proportion.
