After that, the development of literary theory itself requires to re-emphasize the general links and relation value among things. The dissertation believes that the nature of literature should be understood from the following three basic dimensions:literary reception, literary form and ideology. The dissertation by a comprehensive perspective and systems theory point of view, systematically discussed the five complex relations which exist in literary reception, literary form and ideology with the intention of reflection of relation and theory construction. These five relations are interpretations are:interpretation relationship, representation relationship, aesthetic relationship, objective relationship and relationship of self-confrontation. The discussion has been made in the following basic fields:imitation theory, practical theory, performance theory, object theory and reception theory which are five literary concepts in the history from three levels: concept of forms, relational forms and interpretation of the causes.The whole dissertation consists of six chapters besides introduction and conclusion.The first chapter discusses three core areas:literary form, ideology and literary reception, and related theoretical understanding.

At first, what the interpretation form of overall formal concept is in the imitation theory will be introduced in the level of literary form. What are the forms of interpretation form? What are the possible links between interpretation form and its forms? Then, three main manifestations of interpretation form will be analyzed from the level of relationship. They are interpretation relation of rationality of natural society, interpretation relation of belief in religious theology and interpretation relation of human rationality. What the main mechanisms which form the interpretation are will be analyzed from the underlying causes for the formation of interpretation relation. The analysis involves with the following questions:What is it that helps interpretation relation become the absolute discourse authority? How does oral mode of transmission make interpretation relation effectively carry out? Why does the reading horizon of expectation for world view with peer thinking become the subjective conditions for the formation of interpretation relation?The third chapter discusses the relationships among literary reception, representation forms and ideology with the practice theory. Firstly, what the interpretation form of overall formal concept is with the practice theory from the level of literary form? How many manifestations are there? What is the relationship in them? Secondly, three main morphologies of representation relation have been introduced from the level of relationship. Finally, what the main mechanisms which help form the representative relation are will be discussed from the level of underlying causes of relation. How does politics of kingship construct social discourse authority which forms representation relations? How do natural humanity and secular view affect representation ways of representation relation? Why does the reading psychology of expectation for fun in the directed thinking become subjective condition of interpretation relation?The fourth chapter discusses the relationships among literary reception, aesthetic forms and ideology in the performance theory.

Secondly, from the angle of their relationships, three manifestations of object relation will be introduced. They are:opaque object relation, transparency object relation, translucent object relation. Thirdly, what the main mechanisms are will be explained from the underlying causes of relation formation? These mechanisms form the object relation. How does instrumental rationality in modern society set up discourse authority of unconscious structure help object relation form? Literature subjects independently how to affect the object way of "object relations"? Why does the reading psychology of connotation expectation for deep text in the level of formal thinking become the subjective condition for formation of object relation? The sixth chapter discusses the relationships among literary reception, form of self-confrontation and ideology in the reception theory. In the introduction, it tries to discuss whether there is a new literary concept or not after the object theory. How to understand reception theory? Then, what the form of self-confrontation of overall formal concept in reception theory is will be discusses from the aspect of literary form. What are the manifestations of relation of self-confrontation? What are the relationships in them? Furthermore, on the basis of their relationships, three manifestations will be introduced:deconstructive form of self-confrontation, communicative form of self-confrontation and productive form of self-confrontation. At last, what the mechanisms help relation form of self-confrontation will be explained from the angle of underlying causes of relation formation. How does culture-led define the conversational discourse authority? How does transmission of new paradigm greatly affect affect the self-confrontation way of "relation of self-confrontation "? Why does the reading psychology of expectation for discourse communication in the level of reversal thinking become the subjective condition for the formation of relation of self-confrontation?In conclusion, The author believes that five types of literary concept don not separate with each other, while there must be a progressive procedure of understanding on the nature of literature. The author also believes theoretical advocate of the tendency of relational poetics has been put forth in this dissertation.
