Eco-critical Literary Theory–Shen Dacheng's Short Stories as Examples to Illustrate Its Application
* Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.
Abstract
Eco-consciousness is abundantly reflected in Shen Dacheng's short stories, and the use of ecocriticism to interpret Shen's works is an important window for studying Shen Dacheng. The use of eco-critical theory in literary texts has achieved certain results in China and abroad. Shen Dacheng's short stories comprehensively reflect the thinking on the relationship between humans and nature, animal studies, spiritual ecological issues, and thinking on the way out, and creatively show the view that nature also needs human beings.
