本文就美国19世纪诗人埃德加·爱伦·坡与中国现代诗人海子的具体诗歌作品来比较,意图发现他们的共性与差异性,并借鉴其差异性,强调其民族特色。借此来论证只有当中国文学和西方文学互为背景时,中国文学和西方文学才各自具有世界文学的品性,从而构成世界文学。 This article compares the nineteenth-century American poet Edgar Allan Poe with the concrete poetry of the modern Chinese poet Haizi in an attempt to find out their similarities and differences and draw lessons from their differences and emphasize their national characteristics. To prove that only when the Chinese literature and Western literature each other background, Chinese literature and Western literature each have the character of world literature, thus constituting the world literature.
