From the perspective of the transformation of literary principles, this book shows that the generalization of literature is a response to an ideological and cultural challenge that is rare in ancient times. How to inherit and update China's literary theory tradition? How to integrate Chinese and foreign humanities scholarship, especially the postmodern ideological resources that have been forged in the West for the past century? How to get out of the situation where comparative research on romance and analogies is incomplete? The search for universalization in literature is an in-depth attempt to resolve these problems. As a creative design of Chinese literary thought, this book aims to understand the creation of literature, apply literary theory to the world, reorganize aesthetic time and space, and create a unique academic perspective. This manuscript has a total of eighteen chapters and the full text is approximately 270,000 words. From an academic perspective, Tonghua is the basic idea that runs through the entire text. In short, we have an in-depth and simple analysis of the foundation, authenticity, and nature of literature; we have primitive and final thinking about the past, present, and future of literature; we have creative innovations in the destiny, principles, and methods of literature; and we have an understanding of literature that is for oneself, not for oneself, and beyond oneself, in line with the Tao. "The Book of Changes" talks about Tongzhuan, Liu Xie talks about "Tongbian", Zhang Xuecheng talks about "Tongyi", and we talk about "Tonghua". The biggest difference between "Tonghua" and "Tongzhuan", "Tongbian" and "Tongyi" lies in three variables. One is the "resolution of the source" of literary right and wrong, the second is the "willingness to look at the point" of the literary realm, and the third is the "openness of the whole body" of the literary spirit. The "tonghua" of literature expounds the epoch-making proposition that "literature is not literature" and reveals the new literary principle of allelopathic transmutation.

In order to facilitate students to read and use the excellent poems, the editor selected a small part of them according to the principle of positive and healthy standards and the principle of applying the past to the present, and classified them according to the theme content. The book contains more than 500 groups of poems from the Song Dynasty, classified into 19 meanings. Each set of good sentences includes "brief explanation", "source" and "appreciation" parts. The "Brief Explanation" explains the word or sentence; the "Source" indicates the author, title and the whole word; the "Appreciation" part introduces the writing background, general idea and theme, main writing features, and the position and role of the good sentences in the whole word.

This book selects 110 classic poems from Nalan Xingde's poems, briefly proofreads, annotates, and analyzes them. In addition to simple annotations of words, the annotations mainly sort out some of the words used in Nalan's Ci, looking for similar uses and representative origins of this word in previous generations. Generally, two poetry examples or word examples are cited in order to have a general understanding of the inherent poetic spread and inheritance of the wording, imagery, scenery, and romance in Nalan's Ci. In the evaluation, pay attention to the organic combination of appreciation and analysis. Appreciation generally focuses on exploring the connotation and artistic characteristics of the word text itself, focusing on the restoration and experience of the scene, and the grasp of the poet's emotions. Analysis means that in the process of appreciation, one is good at using simple language to point out the points that one likes about the structure, writing, rhythm, succession, and ending of the word, so that readers can more easily understand the structure and content of the word while appreciating it. This has a certain demonstration effect on grasping the regularity of the word, a genre that is deep, subtle, melodious, and has a large jump. The organic combination of appreciation and analysis makes this book's analysis of Nalan's Ci have some new ideas or achievements to a certain extent. In addition, the language of the commentary is concise and smooth, without wordy words, and the writing is as consistent as possible with the delicate beauty of the words themselves, which is also a major feature of this book. Moreover, during the evaluation process, the text should be closely integrated without over-explanation. I believe that this book has its own highlights in terms of non-constraints, choice of explanations, interpretation of texts, and use of language, and it surpasses Nalan Xingde's similar works.

The famous dystopian novel "1984" is a masterpiece handed down by George Orwell. However, traditional critics believe that this novel can at best be regarded as a "flawed masterpiece" because it is essentially born of despair, shows pathological pessimism, and denies the value of human struggle for freedom. This book confronts the strong offensive of these traditional arguments and proposes a new interpretation: "1984" is a complex and unified aesthetic whole that should occupy a place among the literary masterpieces of humanitarianism in the 20th century. Erica Gottlieb took a new approach and moderately expanded her critical horizons, examining the novel in three contexts: "satire," "all of Orwell's literary works," and "famous contemporary psychological theories." She read the text intensively, and innovatively proposed that the novel successfully integrates the two major genres of satire and psychological realism, and does not belong to a single genre. With her efforts, this book restores Orwell's belief in the "human spirit".

"The Scholars" not only directly influenced modern condemnation novels, but also deeply inspired modern satirical literature. This book is an appreciation and appreciation of this famous work.
