Abstract
The Reflexivity of the Specialization of the Literary Theory Discipline is modern topic which marks both historical progress of disenchantment and Reflexivity from over-autonomy to narcissist re-enchantment as well as the fragmentation of literary theory production and the construction metaphysical system. Functional specialization deprives literary theory of its practical, historical and innovation characters and then be in a dilemma. The Ghost of theory haunted everywhere, so the revival of literary theory could not only depend on traditional aesthetic concept, returning back to the classic or holding elite culture. This could neither solve the contemporary cultural problems nor redeem the central position of pure literary art. Therefore, what we should do is to be adhere to the relativity, opening and practical character of literary theory on the condition of holding the esthetical and autonomy of literary theory. In this way, we could construct the discipline through more opening and wide vision, more flexible method, and more stable and scientific step.
