In"The Hidden God", Lucien Goldmann put forward the dialectical sociology of literature, renamed it to the Genetic structuralism literature sociology later in the"Towards a Sociology of the Novel", and carried on the specific exposition."The Hidden God"is generally considered to be a book about the literature review, but also be defined as" General philosophical works"by Goldmann. In the book he chose three research objects belong to different subjects, Pascal'pensees belonging to the philosophical category; 17th century French wear-robe noble and Jansen sectarian movement understanding social from history view ; Racine's tragedy works belonging to the literature field. This paper tried to see Goldmann and his theory from literary perspective, and strive for the existence meaning of Genetic structuralism theory of Goldmann in modern time.This thesis is divided into four chapters besides the preface and epilogue part.The first chapter simply explained Goldmann's Genetic structuralism and its characteristics. As the humanities theory system, Genetic structuralism draw nutrients from Kant, Hegel, Marx, Lukacs, Piaget's thought, and set up its own system features of integrity, dialectics and practicality.The second chapter makes a review of Genetic structuralism literature sociology, which is one important branch of Genetic structuralism. One of the characteristics of Goldmann literary sociology is the reading of"structure". He thought there is a common point between the literature and society, which makes the structure of the two existing simultaneously, to form a "cognate" or "isomorphism" situation. This connection point is tragic view. Tragic view is characterized in embodying the integrity of dialectical and practicality, showing the structure and trends of cultural and social.The third chapter reveals the transcendence connotation of Genetic structuralism literature sociology. Through the discourse of "structure" on last chapter, we obtain the process of text and mental structures from understanding to explaining, which is also the motor process of the world from construction to deconstruction. The similarities of the two processes is to seek coordination from the imbalances segments, to create constant cross-reference in cyclical process of adaption, and finally reach a transcendence of the previous stage state.The fourth chapter is the value judgment of Genetic structuralism literature sociology. With the continually expansion of "literature" extension, literary theory and literary criticism are gradually extended to the culture research area.There seems to be more theory display space for Genetic structuralism literature sociology, which connect literature with the world society closely. However, due to the characteristics of theory generated process and the limitation of existing, there's some difference in Genetic structuralism literature sociology elucidated by today and that of 1950's. Using the development view to make theoretical research, starting from the literature and return, to get a transcendence of theory and literary is what we called the existence value of Goldmann's theory in present day.
