“形而上”是构成哲学体系的一个非常重要的概念。哲学讲求概念,讲求逻辑推理方法。而“形而上”是逻辑体系中必不可少的推理假设的起点。本论文试图从哲学中“形而上”的概念来阐释形而上对于文学的重要意义。以及探讨文学如何通过对“形而上”问题的追问来探讨人类自身本体存在的意义。 Metaphysics is a very important concept that forms the philosophical system. Philosophy stress concepts, emphasis on logical reasoning methods. And metaphysics is the starting point for the necessary assumptions in the logic. This thesis attempts to explain the significance of metaphysics to literature from the concept of metaphysics in philosophy. As well as to explore how literature explores the meaning of the existence of human self through the questioning of metaphysics.
