What books should I read first to understand China literature?

If you want to be a person who really understands China literature, you must first understand China's language art and be familiar with China's history, such as Five Thousand Years Up and Down, China Historical Expo and other historical works.

Second, we must be familiar with China's classical literature, because it is the most precious spiritual legacy left by our ancestors. If you are really not interested in the Four Books and Five Classics, you must also understand Four Great Classical Novels, an ancient vernacular novel, which is not as boring as classical Chinese. It would be great if we could study it in depth. Ool.net/tianyige/present/, classic literature website.

Fourth, at this stage, you can browse fast food sketches, such as Liu Yong.

Also, you can read Jin Yong's novels. I'm definitely not joking, because then you won't be frightened by the profoundness of China literature. The works of Jin Yong's predecessors seem simple, but in fact, their connotations are profound and rich, allowing you to appreciate the elegance of a real master in interesting and bizarre stories.

The above is my suggestion, I hope it will help you.

Let's cheer for China literature, come on!

Finally, I wish you success! Happy new year!
