Facing the Problem and Reshaping the Principle

(Abstract)

 

Chen Zhongyi

 

The writing methods and concepts of literary creation practice, literary criticism, literary theory and literary history are constantly spilling over, resulting in the loss of the minimum boundaries and standards of the literary system. Literary principles are faced with unprecedented chaos, and the literary concepts as a criterion for definition, interpretation, judgment or appreciation are also diverse and varied. As a result, theories and approaches that could be compatible with each other, both in China and abroad, are often mutually exclusive and at odds with each other, forcing us to make up for the gaps in the analysis and regulation of coercion and anti-coercion in order to make a fresh start.
