Features: This book was designated as a college textbook for liberal arts by the State Education Commission's Seventh Five-Year Plan. Grounded in the spirit of Lu Xun's approach to writing literary history with "extensive research as the starting point" and Gu Yanwu's advocacy for historical writing with "collecting evidence from the mountains," the book thoroughly reevaluated several old textbooks before the Cultural Revolution, discarding unsatisfactory chapters and focusing on historical perspectives. By summarizing the new achievements and characteristics of writers and works in the development of literary history, it explores the objective laws of literary development and change. Not only does it add new content and fill gaps and weaknesses in old textbooks, but it also breaks new ground in its writing format and provides rich new research information. It serves as an important reference book and essential reading for lovers of classical literature, researchers of ancient literary history, and faculty and students in liberal arts at higher education institutions.
