Features: A distinctive feature of Liu Xie's literary criticism is its emphasis on studying all phenomena related to change in literature from the perspectives of genesis and chronology, revealing the universal laws of literary evolution and the hereditary nature within literature itself, as well as exploring the cultural atmosphere of the era closely linked to literary evolution and the role of individual writers' creations in the rise and fall of literature.
