Features: The selection of this volume is entirely based on the materials compiled in the Index. This means that the 49 selected essays and nearly 600,000 words of domestic and international research on Yu Dafu are carefully chosen from nearly 10,000 research papers and works on Yu Dafu. The content covers a wide range of studies on Yu Dafu, from theory to creation, from thought to psychology. It serves as a comprehensive review of previous research on Yu Dafu and can also become a new foundation and starting point for current research. The compilation principles of this volume can be summarized as follows:
1. Balanced Representation of Genres. Given that Yu Dafu himself was a conscious stylist who practiced theoretical and creative work in various literary forms, the research on Yu Dafu's novels, essays, travelogues, letters, diaries, biographies, classical poetry, and literary theory in domestic and international studies is well-represented. This characteristic is reflected in the compilation of this volume.
2. Diverse Perspectives. Throughout history, evaluations of Yu Dafu's literary thought, personality psychology, and creative characteristics have been accompanied by various viewpoints, claims, and voices. Preserving and reproducing this chorus of diverse perspectives as authentically as possible is also one of the original intentions of this volume's selection.
3. Chronological Coexistence.
