The distinctions between Chinese and Western literature

Abstract

In today’s globalization, the communication between Chinese and western literature is becoming more and more frequent, and the influence between them is also deepening. However, although mixed in some aspects, Chinese and Western literature still maintains its own characteristics and charm. Through the discussion of the differences between Chinese and Western literature, we can better understand the diversity of different cultures, promote cross-cultural dialogue and understanding, and enrich the spiritual world of human beings. This paper discusses the differences between Chinese and Western literature in various aspects, including communication mode, communication medium, development time, cycle, content and core ideas. Through the combination of historical events and objective development laws, this paper explores the influence of literature on economic and political development. This paper discusses in detail the relationship between literature and national and social development and how various social factors affect literature development, both of which restrict each other and cooperate with each other.
