Features: The author points out in this book that spiritualized criticism is a special feature of literary criticism thinking. The author first examines the differences between traditional Chinese literary criticism and traditional Western literary criticism, then analyzes the origins of spiritualized criticism from a systems theory perspective. At the same time, the author places the thinking system of literary criticism within the broader social production relations and the corresponding ideological system, focusing on analyzing the impact of evolving social trends, changes in the economic structure, and the influence of the subject of literary criticism on spiritualized criticism. The book has high academic value. Whether the topic of this series and its individualized development truly touch upon the forefront of literary studies or even effectively advance the extension of academic frontiers may ultimately not depend on the author's original intentions or the editor's statements, but rather on the discerning judgment of the readers.
