The Principles and Significance of a Research Paradigm for Deep Integration and Transformation in Liberal Arts and Humanities Studies

Abstract

Abstract: The paper proposes a research paradigm for the deep integration and transformation in the liberal arts and humanities. It takes as its cases the three categories of literary canons, story and methodology and their deep integration and transition. Through case studies, the paper concludes that the new issue emerged from the deep integration and transformation presents a better approach to deepen the research because a new issue raised for any category in the liberal arts and humanities implies an internal mechanism which requires for deep integration and transformation of issues so as to find a new approach and logic to the resulting issue. The significance of the research paradigm lies in its construction of a new and operational platform by which new problems can be revealed, and the category integrated shows both the original and the synchronic functional features.

Key words: the liberal arts and humanities, deep issues, integration and transformation, research paradigm, literary canons, story, methodology
