Classicism draws artistic forms and themes from ancient Greece and Rome, and has a set of strict artistic norms and standards, such as "three unifications" in drama creation; Despise prose novels and other styles. Enlightenment literature gradually sublated the classical rules and regulations on the subject matter level, and widely adopted novels, poems, plays and literary and political papers on an equal footing, thus creating the prose era in the history of literature.
