Conflicts between academism and anti-academism in contemporary Chinese poems actually also originate in the U. S. A. The difference is that in the U. S. A. academism appeared first, and then came anti-academism, but in China, there came anti-academism first, and then academism fictitiously derived from anti-academism. In a sense, some academic spirits satisfy the needs of contemporary Chinese poems. I take it for granted that the spirits involve serious attitude towards the poetry, respect for the formality and art, and the continuous and intentional efforts to a certain classics. Of course, the spirits have nothing to do with academic identification and academism, which is not only the needs for the academism, but indispensable for the anti-academism.

Theories of “behind realism” and “ahead of realism” of the realist literature and art are tit-for-tat, but it is hard to comment which is right. The phenomenon is not recognized by all or is not “objective fact” proved by practice. Thus, all the ideas and theories about the literature and art cannot be regarded as truth and scientific “recognition” based on the objective facts, but are a kind of “advocate” of some notions originating in certain subjective standpoint. In a word, there exists no literary and artistic science which is applicable everywhere, but there does only the theory of literature and art about or for a certain group of people of a certain time.

Hubei playwright Shen Hongguang’s creation of the plays taking wars as historical subject matter is with gains and losses, different from the plays about daily life. Applying routing devices to constructing non-routine war history will weaken the acute conflict that the history is with. The sight limitation prevents Shen Hongguang from creating heroic characters from every aspect. And her plays are effective in the aspect of literature, but lack gripping stage effect in a state of ordinariness and indelicacy.

In American classical literary works, the trees’ images, such as Trees at Night written by Helene Johnson, Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening written by Robert Lee Frost, Leaves of Grass written by Whitman, The Scarlet Letter written by Hawthorne, Beloved written by Toni Morrison, have shown the rethinking and the transcending of predicament for human beings. After reading the “Dialogue Theory” written by a Russian literary theoretician, Mikhail Bakhtin, we have also sought the pluralistic concept of dialogue in different texts from the angle of intertextuality. The images of trees have given human beings infinite imagine and spiritual wishes in different works. And at the same time the writers of these texts are also elaborating the most essential anthropology proposition through the angle of philosophy.

Hubei government bank was a local banking institute in large-scale in the later Qing Dynasty, which was established in 1896 by the province governor, Zhang Zhidong. During its thirty-year existence, it made great contribution to the local economic development. But after the Revolution of 1911, it fell down and in the end went bankrupt. After its bankruptcy, the central government entered into rivalry with the local government over its property. The central government declared twice that the bank was under state control, but the province government protested twice for the returning. The dispute ended with the winning of the province government, which showed the strong attitude of the local government and the conflict between the central and local governments, at the same time also demonstrated the complicated situation of the contemporary Chinese politics.

Kang raised the “natural desire and personal reason” to contradict the “natural reason and personal desire” of Confucian in Song Dynasty., in the new historical period to identify new interpretation of the “Argument for the Rational Desire”, it showed the values change in modern period. Kang Youwei confirmed the desire which were based on value change and modernization process. For values changing, Kang Youwei confirmed the rational desire because Confucianism in Song and Ming highly suppressed human's perceptional desire. Its modern significance could not be ignored; on the other hand, in reality, the industrialization and modernization of the progress of the hedonism provided the possibility of the infinite. Kang had his limitation to pursue the desire , and the infinite expansion of person’s desire destroyed the relationship of harmony between the man and nature, man and society, man and man, which caused the tension and conflict, the tension could not be dissolved by Kang Youwei’s “benevolence”.

As a new discipline with wide background and multiplex resources, the discipline characteristics of communication are known for complexity, but under the influence of the rash, the communication field pays little attention to the basic problem of the direction for the scientific development of the discipline.
