Abstract：Over the past 40 years since the reform and opening up, the research on Chinese classical literature has been looking for direction in classics, gaining strength from tradition, accumulating experience in innovation and surpassing predecessors when going back to the tradition. In terms of its general trend, the research shows the trend of returning to classics, the concept construction of Chinese literature, the characteristics of our age in literature collation and the powerful return to theoretical researches. To return to the classics is to return to the Marxist classics and the classics of excellent traditional Chinese culture. “Chinese literature” is a relatively independent disciplinary, academic and discourse system based on the historical view of great Chinese literature. Over the past 40 years, led by Zhonghua Book Publishing House and Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House, large literature collections, reference books and resource compilations have been systematically edited and published, providing rich and full-scale resources for the study of Chinese classical literature and greatly promoting the in-depth development of the study of Chinese classical literature. It can be said that we are in an unprecedented best historical period of literature collection and researches on historical resources. Seeking truth from facts and making concrete analysis of specific materials are the basic attitudes of historical materialism and the theoretical trend of further development of Chinese classical literature research in the future.
