Study Of Chinese Literature In The First Half Of The 20th Century On Writing Situation Of “Classical Prose Movement” In Tang And Song Dynasties

The first half of the 20 th century is a period of rapid development of the history of Chinese literature,but also a process of rebuilding the history of literature in the modern perspective.With the change of literature and the view of literature history,the writing of literature history presents the characteristics of stages.This thesis takes several Chinese literary histories published between 1900 and 1949 as examples to study the writing situation of “classical prose movement” in Tang and Song dynasties in different literary histories.The first chapter is about the description of the “classical prose movement” from the perspective of the traditional academy in the history of literature.In the early literary history,the view of mixed literature and the changing view of literary history were reflected.At that time,the concept of “classical prose movement” hasn’t emerged.Therefore,the cognition of literary historians on the reform of Tang and Song articles basically came from the traditional academic system.So this chapter takes the literary history of Dou Jingfan,Lin Chuanjia,Wang Mengzeng,Zhu Xizu and Xie Wuliang as examples to deeply analyze the writing characteristics of the “classical prose movement” in the starting period of literary history.The second chapter is the “classical prose movement” and the movement narration of literary history.Firstly,the article discusses the evolvement of the word“movement” since modern times.Then discusses Hu Shih’s concept of “classical prose movement” through his literary history.Then it analyzes the inheritance and reverse of Hu Shih’s “classical prose movement” in Ling Dujian’s literary history.The third chapter is about “classical prose movement” under the control of“evolutionary history view” and “pure literature view”.In 1920 s and 1930 s,there was a rapid development of Chinese literary history,and Hu Shih’s view of “classical prose movement” was gradually accepted by more literary historians.Therefore,in this chapter,through the study of “classical prose movement” under the description of Hu Yunyi,Zheng Zhenduo and Liu Linsheng,the development of the view of “classical prose movement” during this period is studied and explored.The fourth chapter is about the description of “classical prose movement” and the change of the concept of literary history.After the 1930 s,the view of literary history was more complicated.So this chapter takes the literary history of Tan Pimo,Qian Jibo and Lin Geng as examples to explore the description of “classical prose movement” under the views of historical materialism,scientific history and “vibrant” history.Besides,the view of Liu Dajie’s on “classical prose movement” is also noteworthy,especially his influential literature book-The Development of the History of Chinese Literary.
