From the end of 19^th century,China started learning knowledge from the west.At the same time,the Classical Chinese literary theory got a close relationship with the west,but history saw the phenomenon that many persons directly copied a lot of terms from the wester literary theories to bring up a result called "aphasia".So,we meet with a very important question that how we deal with this historical conclusion,or we say how to construct a kind of literary theory which can both express Chinese characteristics of traditional literary theory and contain modernity ,when we face with "aphasia".Maybe,the sinicization of western literary theory is an effective path to develope Chinese literary theory.Naturally,the second question is how to realize the sinicization of western literary theory though it is a nice problem and we lack of enough experience to solve it.Looking back our history ,we find out a useful history progress which we can name it "the sinicization of Buddhism".Is it a inspirational significance?
