History of Contemporary Chinese Literary Criticism
by Editor-in-chief Chen Xiaoming
About This Novel
China's modern cultural transformation may have been like the development of Western modern culture, with a romantic cultural movement accompanying it. However, in China, the transforming modern culture has always been dominated by the urgent needs of social reality, and social reality has not given it a little room to breathe. As a result, such a cultural movement that was originally romanticism has turned into a high-profile realism movement. "History of Contemporary Chinese Literary Criticism" takes the theoretical criticism of realism as a main line, reveals its entire process of construction and movement, radicalization and transition, variation and diversity, and examines the difficult path that Chinese contemporary literary criticism has taken. Because of realism, Chinese literary criticism strictly limits itself and can only dance within the boundaries given by realism; also because of realism, Chinese literary criticism is deeply imprinted with its own history. All realistic desires, burdens, and escapes are related to this. Literary criticism and literary creation seem to bear and atone for reality. The history of literary criticism is not simply about political affirmation or negation. It is intense and pathos, crude and complex, direct yet changeable.
