Definition of literary value:
Literary value refers to the attribute that literary works meet the needs of people and society. The reason why classic works can be circulated is that people can get free shock from them and enjoy the beauty.
The birth of literary value:
Literary value is created by both the author and the reader. The author's creation provides a foundation for literary value, and the reader's reading and re-creation make literary value become a reality. Readers' reading is an active process. Different readers have different life experiences and social experiences, which to some extent recreates and sublimates the literary value of the works themselves.
The relationship between literary value and literary works;
Literary value itself is the product of the unity of subject and object. Literary works are based on a certain social environment and the author's own understanding and spiritual creation of the social environment. The isomorphism between real life and artistic creation has become the creative source of writers.
Different literary works have different structures and elements and different values. For example, novels are more of cognitive value, while the aesthetic value of poetry is more prominent.
