Its publication has pushed the Chinese revolutionary art movement since the May 4th Movement to a new historical period, which has brought a brand new look to the creative practice and theory of Chinese revolutionary literature and art.

This article attempts to analyze Mao Zedong’s discourse on literary criticism in his “Speech” and other works in order to illustrate Mao Zedong’s view of literary criticism and its important guiding significance to contemporary literary criticism.
