The object of discussion in this book is the so-called "nothing writing" in classical vernacular novels, that is, the "idle writing" that seems to be "superfluous" in the narrative framework of the entire story. These "superfluous" words mainly include two parts: one part is a side narrative that can be determined to have no causal connection with the main storyline, and the other part can be generally summarized as some trivial references and the intervention of the narrator in the narrative. This book takes vernacular novels of the Ming and Qing dynasties such as "The Golden Lotus" and "A Dream of Red Mansions" as examples to illustrate how Chinese classical novels simulate the synchronicity and reality of real life by intricately juxtaposing multiple events and character activities, and connecting seemingly loose fragments of events into a complete story. This book aims to explore a resilient integration model in the narrative structure of Chinese classical novels.

As a large-scale human settlement, cities underwent major changes during the Tang and Song Dynasties. Changes in urban functions and social structures profoundly affected the lifestyles of literati in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and subtly changed their cultural and literary concepts. In this process, cities gradually lead literature toward secularization and popularization, thus triggering changes in literature at multiple levels such as subject matter, style, and genre. At the same time, literature is also actively shaping the city's image and cultural personality. In the interactive relationship between the dual construction of cities and literature, literati in the Tang and Song Dynasties keenly grasped the trends of urban social changes and reflected the images of urban transformation in the form of literary images. It is this perceptual writing method that more vividly preserves the historical reality.

To understand Qu Zi's "Chu Ci", there are two key points that must be kept in mind: First, the first sentence of "Li Sao": "The Miao descendants of Emperor Gaoyang are here, and my emperor is called Boyong." The so-called "Bo Yong" is the eldest son of King Wu of Chu, who was granted the title of Kui Zi. The pronunciation (entering tone) of the character Kui is "Qu" or "Jia". Boyong's eldest son Qu Xia got his surname from this and became the ancestor of the Qu family. Second, Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" has been completely preserved through two channels, the north and the south. The northern route was when the Qu, Jing, and Zhao tribes who migrated to Chu State and the Tian family of Qi State enriched Guanzhong in the ninth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" was introduced to Guanzhong by the Qu family as an heirloom, and was seen by Jia Yi. The route to the south was Shouchun, the capital of King Qingxiang of Chu, and his literary attendants Song Yu and Tang Le accompanied him. Therefore, Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" was also passed down as a precious heritage. For this reason, this book is divided into four parts, the inner part, the outer part, the chronicle interludes, and the poetics part, which display the complete three-dimensional style of Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" at multiple levels. The internal editor is dedicated to the notes and evidence of "Historical Records: Biography of Qu Yuan Jia Sheng", "Historical Records: Chu Family (Xuanwei Huaixiang)", as well as the ancestry and branch lineage of the Qu family, and Qu Yuan's historical and cultural awareness. The external editor is devoted to the collection and discussion of "Li Sao", "Tian Wen", "Nine Songs", "Nine Chapters", "Yuan Yu", "Divination" and "The Fisherman". The Chronicle Interlude is dedicated to the chronology of all chapters of Qu Yuan's "Chu Ci". The poetics chapter is dedicated to interpreting Qu Song's poems and poems as real poems. Such restoration research can lead people to deepen the exquisite cultural life connotation of Qu Zi's "Chu Ci".

This book is based on Chinese and Western comparative poetics as its theoretical basis, and uses the representative poetry collections of "confessional" narratives by the major American confessional poets as the main "intertext". It takes the "confessional" poetry texts of Chinese poets who were influenced by the American confessional school in the 1980s and created a group of Chinese poets who have both the characteristics of American confessional poetry and local poetics as the "current text". This book systematically examines and studies the spread and acceptance of American confessional poetry in China, the aesthetic inheritance and poetic construction of confessional poetry on Chinese soil, and the poetic innovation and transplantation of Chinese confessional poetry to American confessional poetry from the aspects of writing subject, poetic reception, text aesthetics, and cultural interference in the text, etc., In order to break through the current research status, eliminate some misunderstandings or misunderstandings, and open up space for related research.

What kind of historical figure is Chunshenjun Huang Xie (? - 238 BC), who has been widely circulated as a flood control hero in the Taihu Lake Basin since ancient times? How do his deeds, relics and inheritance relate to Shanghai's current urban construction? Through comprehensive combing and on-site investigation of oral traditions, texts and relics centered on Chun Shenjun, the author explores why the legend of Chun Shen Jun's flood control was generated, inherited and evolved in this region, how the historical Chu Prime Minister Chun Shen Jun became the leader of water control, and how the legend of Chun Shen Jun was resourced in contemporary Shanghai's urban life, revealing the space for legend inheritance, genealogy and its relationship with local identity. Through analysis and argumentation, the author points out that local residents established temples to worship Chun Shenjun as the god of "fighting away floods", which is inseparable from the local nature of frequent disasters such as floods and droughts. The belief also contributed to the spread and inheritance of Chun Shenjun's legend and became an important cultural resource for urban construction.

Based on perspective thinking and a return to common sense, it reinterprets these classics based on "aesthetic and historical" standards. The sky for women was once low; women who look up to the sky always yearn to fly freely. Paying attention to and understanding the real plight and sexual needs of women as the "other half" of the human group is a sign of the actual improvement of human wisdom and civilization.

In the more than two thousand years since Wang Shifeng's diary slips were unearthed in the early Han Dynasty, diaries have been one of the most traditional writing styles and scholarship methods in my country, which have great practical utility, but are often underestimated and the relevant theoretical research is extremely weak. During this period, my country has accumulated very rich diary literature and theoretical materials, and has made extraordinary achievements. However, it is scattered and messy, and has not attracted enough attention from the academic community. There has also been a lack of systematic compilation, collation, and organization.

Small town novels that reflect life in small towns are literary presentations of specific small towns in different regions, and are also vivid records of the life and culture of the Chinese nation. The author believes that modern Chinese small town novels are prose novels structured as a series of short stories, which are combined into "Chinese Days and Nights". The small town novels in each region, through fixed-point perspective of the region, achieve an overall overlook and rational analysis of the region and its people on the basis of expressing various life scenes and value meanings. Looking back and examining small town novels from various places from the perspectives of ecology and anthropology, we will discover the majestic life landscape of the Chinese people. The various objects, customs, disturbances, and entanglements in the novel are natural manifestations of life in different regions, and are also expressions of the personalities of different writers. Perhaps the creators have their own ambitions, but their ultimate direction is to respect and cherish ordinary life. Based on the above understanding, this book examines small towns, literary towns, and small town literature research from the perspective of traditional culture and ecological culture. Through careful interpretation and excavation of narrative texts, it conducts an in-depth and detailed investigation and exploration of the life forms, living conditions and cultural values ​​of modern Chinese small towns, in order to systematically and rationally think about the living situation, life style and life value of modern Chinese people, and at the same time explore an alternative path for the research on the unique narrative art of modern small town novels.

This monograph is the first in academic circles to use the worship of childlike innocence as a carrier to gain a glimpse of the community imagination in Dickens's 14 completed novels. The Victorians, who were in a period of civilizational transition, had stepped out of the Tönnies-style kinship community and been thrown into a society of strangers born out of industrialized division of labor. When shaping the nation-state, Dickens created a community narrative system that eliminated class exclusivity through the structural repetition of the worship of childlike innocence-the age inversion of precocious children and immature adults, fantasy landscapes, and the promotion of good and punishment of evil. The pursuit of the highest good in melodramatic aesthetics highlights the profound significance of social trust built by virtue to economic ecology.
