Compared with the discussion of "Rewriting the history of literature", the discussion of "Rewriting the history of drama" has not caused such an upsurge and response. On the one hand, it may be because the subject of drama history has been incorporated into the discussion framework of literary history since Wang Guowei founded it. The construction of the subject of drama history in China also has a literary tendency, and the concept that drama history writing is independent and different from literary history writing has not been fully established. On the other hand, this may also reflect the difficulties and difficulties in the field of drama research and drama history research. The so-called "repeat" is not repetition, but rethinking and new creation, which is a new understanding and interpretation of the history. And development of drama on the basis of the development of theater, a new structure, which of course includes specific results and contents, but first of all, it is carried out under a clear academic concept and guiding ideology. Since the 1980s is indeed an era of ideological pluralism, throughout the development of contemporary literature and art we have experienced several stages of political discourse, artistic discourse, cultural discourse, the latter is the reflection, subversion and development of the former. The road is getting wider and wider, the vision is getting wider and wider, from the negation, beyond the non-academic return to art to the pursuit of a cultural understanding and causes, not only to make the discipline move towards the "broadband" era, but also to make the research understanding of the subject close to nature, close to the essence.
