Features: This book selects 14 fundamental questions commonly discussed in Chinese and Western literary theory as its chapter structure, all of which are shared by literary activities. The introduction of each chapter strives to examine the question within a specific historical context, presenting as many perspectives of predecessors and others as possible. Following each chapter introduction, several research papers discussing the question from different perspectives are selected, each preceded by a brief introductory text to provide multi-angle and multi-aspect insights into various factors of literary activities, thereby establishing a platform for Sino-Western dialogue, ancient-modern dialogue, and teacher-student dialogue. Each chapter also includes three supplementary sections related to the question: extended reading, questions for reflection, and research practice. These sections gradually delve deeper into the question, further guiding students to engage in exploratory learning and enabling them to grasp the issue with a progression from general knowledge to rational thinking, and ultimately to academic research, demonstrating a phased and hierarchical leap in understanding.
