What are the differences between cultural studies and traditional literary studies

Cultural studies focus on cultural differences, such as East and West, including lifestyle, customs, etc., but also the culture of a tribal nation, including its historical literature. Traditional literary research is only the study of cultural fields, and is the traditional literature of a nation. ① Cultural research is more closely linked to the current society and changes, and can respond quickly to the current Chinese society;

② Literary research, in the "complex" situation of the last decade, has not been able to open up the concepts of the Chinese society and the important value of the production of the field. The study of literature, in the "complex" situation of the last decade, has been unable to open up the field of production of concepts and important values in Chinese society. In this sense, literary scholars have to expand their horizons. The perspective of cultural studies has its own possibilities: in the last decade or so, the "fragmentation" of literature has begun to spread, with some of the Misty poets turning to the advertising industry, for example; and the traditions and methods that have been developed in the original literary studies are important techniques for cultural studies. (However, it seems that a close reading of the text alone cannot open up this "complexity" of the present, and, to quote Mr. Wu Xian, a close reading of literature does not guarantee a "passage through the phenomenon").

3) Compared with other disciplines, cultural studies has a wider scope and stronger processing power, focusing on the inner texture of some daily life. Cultural studies in an open world, has not yet formed a discipline of discipline, just an open field, interdisciplinary is also its a necessary choice. This is precisely the weakness of traditional disciplines and the strength of cultural studies.Eg: The relationship between spiritual concepts/material practices has not been examined as a specific issue in the past. Stuart Hall's "joining", in the abstract philosophical sense of "intertextuality" thinking, but also very much emphasis on institutions, systems (Foucault).
