Abstract
This paper explores the dialectical relationship between the publication of anthologies and the literature ecology in the 1980s. Anthology publication is linked to editors, writers and readers, and reflects literary environment of a particular era. The significance of anthology publication to literature ecology in the 1980s lies in two aspects, the first being the reflectivity and reactions almost all the literary periods and the second being the construction of the anthologies to literature ecology in the 1980s. The roles of various anthologies such as annual literary anthology, anthologies of controversial works, and anthologies of different literary schools present different ways of literary representation in the transformation of literature ecology in the 1980s.
