A Review of the Study of"Chivalrous Culture"Since Modern Times
"Chivalrous culture"is a specific manifestation of the ancient Chinese martial spirit.Research on ancient Chinese"chivalrous culture"has long been centered in the field of literature,which is compatible with the characteristics of the subject itself and the habitual discourse of literary studies.Since the beginning of modern academic attention to"chivalrous culture",image analysis has been the core entry point.When discussing the evolution of the"chivalrous"image,the"chivalrous"figures in literary works throughout the ages naturally become the material used to provide arguments.This is particularly true for the study of martial arts novels,whether it is an analysis of a particular writer(and their series of works)or a comprehensive discussion on the origins and evolution of martial arts fiction;it cannot be separated from the historical description of"chivalrous culture".However,there is currently a lack of systematic research that starts from"chivalrous culture"itself.
