Reconstruction and Prospect:The Logical Basis and Development Direction of Chinese Children's Literature Criticism
Since the start of the new century,Chinese children's literature criticism has made significant progress in con-structing a theoretical system,absorbing theoretical resources,expanding methodological approaches,perfecting award mechanisms,and generating critical works.However,there are still the problems of weak entity construction and inap-propriate criticism.In response,a re-examination of the meta-concepts of Chinese children's literature criticism,using"Chineseness","childness",and"literary criticism"as logical supports for constructing critical discourse,helps to clari-fy critical stances,define disciplinary foundations,and broaden research perspectives,thereby enhancing its content con-struction.In the future,literary criticism of Chinese children's literature should be based on a solid disciplinary founda-tion and strive to improve the ontological construction of the theoretical criticism discourse system that characterises Chinese children's literature.To achieve this,it should integrate"subjectivity"and"totality"in a vertical manner,deep-ening the integration of Chinese children's literary criticism into the historical context of new Chinese literary criticism.In adhering to the philosophy of"focusing on China"and"sinicizing Western ideas",Chinese children's literature criti-cism should demonstrate an international perspective and national orientation to promote the common prosperity of children's literature worldwide.In specific critical practices,critics should dare to"tell the truth"and"discuss the shortcomings",using literary criticism to promote the development and prosperity of the creation,publication and dis-semination of Chinese children's literature.
