Abstract
To investigate the knowledge innovation of contemporary literary theory from the angle of thought production may bring about profound academic implications. The production of thought creates value and meaning and is fundamental in creating knowledge. It also responds to the intrinsic qualities and rules of the literary theory as a discipline of humanities. As literary theory takes on more modern characteristics, the dominant presence and the production of intellectual thoughts in literary theory are being increasingly recognized and are even taken as the reason and aims for knowledge innovation. As a discipline that makes value interpretation and aesthetic judgment on literary phenomena and experience, cultural poetics is a unique mode in the production of literary theoretical thought, which requires further research and exploration. One important issue for the knowledge innovation in contemporary Chinese literary theory is to improve the quality of the produced intellectual thoughts by tackling the long-standing problems in contemporary literary theory.
