前言

  Literature, in a strict sense, refers to "the art of beauty" or "the art of language", including poetry, prose, drama, fiction, etc. However, the concept "literature" has gone through a complicated process of evolution in the course of history before it develops the meaning we usually refer to today.  In China, the word"文学"(literature) first appeared in The Analects of Confucius. The Analects of Confucius, Part-11 quotes the master as saying:  德行:颜渊,闵子骞,冉伯牛,仲弓。  言语:宰我,子贡。  政事:冉有,季路。  文学:子游,子夏。  The translation reads:the students of Confucius had various abilities.The ones virtuous in principles and conduct were Yan-Yuan,Min Ziqian,Ran Boniu and Zhonggong.The ones who were good in rhetoric were ZaiWo and Zigong.The ones who had administrative talents were Ranyou and Jilu.The ones familiar with the ancient literature were Ziyou and Zixia.Here."literature"refers generally to ancient classic literature,not including language and art works that have special aesthetic features involving the manifold factors of emotion,imagination and fabrication.The special aesthetic nature of literature at the time was the function of poetry.Confucius says.“The poetry serve to stimulate the mind.

章节摘录

  Poetry is the expression of gallant and free or delicate and subtle feelings with very concise words. Some poems record the development of major events in the history of mankind, while some verse may be the lighthearted singing of an individuals passion. Since ancient times, poetry has appeared when it is needed, whether in the 5,000 years of splendid Chinese civilization, or in the long history of the West. The origins of human civilization are intimately related to mankinds struggle to gain sustenance. In the course of such activities, people would freely express their views without having to rely on written records, making poetry one of the oldest of all literary genres. Lu Xun once said in his work "The Outsider Talks" that the laborers chant of "haij you, haij you" was the earliest known poetry and humorously called it the "haij you, haij you" style. The origin of poetry was also closely related to religion and entertainment.
