Abstract
The Classic of Mountains and Seas is an ancient Chinese text, which is regarded as a treasure trove of ancient Chinese fantasy literature. Modern science fiction stories, on the other hand, have gradually emerged under the progress of science and technology and have been widely used in the field of film and animation. In this paper, we compare the presentation form, narrative structure and thematic content of the Classic of Mountains and Seas and modern science fiction stories in film and animation. It is found that although the time background and cultural origins of the two are different, there are certain commonalities in the creation of the fantasy world, characterisation, and exploration of the relationship between man and nature, man and science and technology. At the same time, it also highlights the differences in cultural inheritance and innovation between the two. Through the comparative study, the value and significance of the Classic of Mountains and Seas and modern science fiction stories in film and animation can be better understood and appreciated.
