Yang, Zhouhan. Guan yu ti gao wai guo wen xue shi bian xie zhi liang de ji ge wen ti [ID D26474].
Yang schreibt : "We often treat writers and literary schools as if they are sharply divided and share nothing in common, as if they belong to different classes. This is simply not true in reality. Take 'active' and 'passive' Romanticism as an exemple : the two have something in common both in class status and ideology and in cultural background. Wordsworth, for instance... it is true, dropped out of the struggle for fear of the Jacobin dictatorship, but Napoleon's war of invasion was also one of the causes for his disappointment. On the other hand, even the 'active' Romantic poets differed. Some literary histories describe Byron's motive force as pride and Shelley's as love. Perhaps that was what was meant by Marx's alleged remark, that Shelley would have become a revolutionary, Byron a reactionary. Byron is a complicated character. That is why literary histories have always given him both praise and censure. Starting from the Soviet literary histories, there has been a tendendy [in China] to cover up Byron's faults and publicize his merits. Generally speaking, Byron should be considered progressive, but we have not done enough research into his motive for joining the progressive trend."
