The Knowledge Generation of Theory and the Inner Logic of Chinese Literary Theory

Abstract

Abstract: The generation of the knowledge of theory refers to both the theory itself as academic knowledge and the theory as knowledge-generating academic discourse. Theory as knowledge is generated in the process of border crossing between discipline, language and culture, while knowledge-generating theory starts with literature, is established in culture and bears fruits in post-modernity. In this context, the knowledge construction of Chinese literary theory follows the trajectory from theory in Chinese to Chinese theory.

Key words: theory, knowledge generation, Chinese literary theory
