Features: This book was first published in English in 1990, reflecting the progress and many themes and issues in international studies that have been brought about by the presence of Chinese scholars. The foremost issue is unavoidable: What are the ideas about the nature of literature in various cultures? Or, to put it another way, how do the major literary cultural communities construct their systematic literary perspectives? The usual answer is obvious: that is, through responding to the literary practices that exist in their social, philosophical, and intellectual contexts.
