Abstract

This paper focused on two key words, namely literary mind and general change, tried to discuss Qian Zhongshu’ early literary criticism from two parts: the view of Classical Chinese and the critique of Chinese Classical Literature. First of all, Qian Zhongshu concentrated on research poetly mind and literary mind to the common humanity in his literary researches, it is reflected in the literature across the ages and in all countries of the world. More specifically, the poetly mind means poetic inspiration, it is in the realm of subjectivity, while the literary mind means that it is the workings of the human mind. In other words, it reaches forward to the criticism for the subject of the creation and the critical subject. In addition to literary mind, Qian Zhongshu inherited the tradition of Chinese literature, including traditional literature type, tradition of the history of Spanish literature. At the same time, he used dialectical thinking and tried to discuss the possibility of criticism. According to this point, I think that two key words will be useful to study Qian Zhongshu’s early literary criticism. Because it provide much more information about Qian Zhongshu’s the view of Classical Chinese and the critique of Chinese Classical Literature. Furthermore, it can help us to understand Qian Zhongshu’s passion for Chinese classical literature as well as his academic interest in Western literature, philosophy, psychology, and rhetoric, etc. I think it is provided new methodology and insight into Qian Zhongshu’s Qian’s literary criticism.
