在中西比较诗学草创之初,寻求中国古代文论的潜体系,并将其与当代西方诗学加以比较、综合,是刘若愚苦心孤诣的学术追求。《中国文学理论》作为首部以英语对中国古代文论进行系统、分类阐释的著作,诞生三十余年来,在美国、港台及大陆学界备受瞩目的同时也引发了大量争议。本文在二战以来美国汉学的发展背景及刘若愚学术著述的整体中,揭示出他建构中国古代文论体系的背景、方法、实质及意义。

This article reveals the background, method, essence and significance of his construction of Chinese ancient literary theory system in the background of the development of American Sinology and the academic writings of Liu Ruoyu since World War II.
