Abstract

For the literary education in the university campus, the goal is not to train writers, but to cultivate students to develop a culture of love for literature and the ability to appreciate literature. Chen Pingyuan, a professor at Peking University, once said: “The 'native mother education' is not only about reading and literacy, but also involves knowledge, thinking, aesthetics, cultural stance, etc. I have taught in universities in mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, and I am deeply impressed by mainland students. The level of Chinese is not satisfactory." In fact, all grassroots organizations in the whole society have noticed that when the Ministry of Education initiated a new round of college entrance examination reform, it has clearly announced the abolition of the liberal arts and sciences division. However, for the course offered on campus, there is no "College Chinese" in the public courses, and each university has its own idea of setting courses. By contrast, Taiwan's educational circles are still insisting on the opening of "Big Country Chinese", which has a significant influence on students and benefits them a lot. For college students in any country, they should have the ability to use their own language accurately and gracefully. The acquisition of this ability requires a good study of the culture and literature of our country. It is required to learn the knowledge of reading and writing, and learn the language and literature of our country. It should be a wonderful enjoyment. At the same time, it will also help students in Chinese knowledge, literary interest, cultural construction, morality, ideology and even "international relations". However, with the promotion and construction of applied universities, many colleges and universities consider the actual economic function of society in their professional curriculum design. Therefore, in many institutions, neither "University Language" nor "Reading and Writing" is available. Literary education is becoming less and less important, and it is necessary to always give way to professional courses. Such a guiding trend will make the whole society more impetuous in the long run. It is very important for literary educators to promote the literary education of the university. Therefore, after investigating the current situation of many school curriculums, our research team chose this topic: "Promoting Literary Education in University Campus."
