Third, illustrate the influence of China's traditional Confucianism and Taoism on China's ancient literature.

1, the article says, serving politics and religion.

Zhang Zi, The Analects of Confucius: "Xia Zi said:' To be an official is to learn, and learning is to be an official. Confucius attached great importance to the relationship between study and politics, and thought that after study, he should care about state affairs. It can be seen that Confucianism pays attention to applying what it has learned and is a positive idea of "joining the WTO". "Poetry can be numerous, impressive, numerous, resentful, the father of what you do, the gentleman who is far away, and learned in the name of birds, animals and plants" is the literary standard put forward by Confucius. After careful analysis, we can see that Confucius advocated the social practice function of literature very much, not just the product of people expressing their feelings in poetry and expressing their feelings through poetry. This kind of social and political literature is an important magic weapon for rulers to maintain their position and govern the country, and it is also one of the most remarkable and essential features of China literature.

2. The golden mean.

The Analects of Confucius Advanced Chapter records: "Zi Gong asked,' Which is better, a teacher or a businessman?' Confucius said:' The teacher has passed, but the business is not as good as it is. "said,' but the teacher is better?' Confucius said, "Too much is too late." Confucius is a great advocate of the golden mean. He believes that "the doctrine of the mean is also a virtue", and the "middle" of "the doctrine of the mean" is not the doctrine of the mean, not the middle between the two extremes, but the most suitable one. The meaning of the golden mean is actually not to go to extremes when dealing with problems, but to find the most suitable way to deal with them. It can be said that the golden mean has penetrated into the blood of the vast majority of people in China. People in China pay attention to the golden mean, which has prompted many literary works to show an implicit and restrained tendency since ancient times. Writers seem to be able to control their strong feelings well and not express them thousands of miles away.

3. The concept of "harmony between man and nature".

The essence of Confucianism is embodied in literary works, which makes China's traditional culture endless. The Confucian concept of "harmony between man and nature" has made great contributions to the comparison of literary works. The Analects of Confucius records that Confucius said, "I don't know my life, but I don't think I am a gentleman;" Don't understand the ceremony, can't stand it; You can't know people if you don't know what to say. "Confucius believes that destiny cannot be violated, so people should' do their best and listen to destiny', so China's literary works pay attention to the artistic conception of sages and have a strong sense of hardship.
