The statement that"literature reproduces the world"has had a long history and diverse stating forms, but now it is confronted with some challenges out of post-modem contexts.The two primary responsive tactics in the new-century literary theory consist in a reinterpretation of"reproduction"and a reinterpretation of"reality(the world)".They both timely draw on certain elements of post-modem thoughts, but are somewhere ambiguous or contradictory in their meanings.The root lies in a deep break between modem and post-modem and a difficulty in reconcilability.This paper postulates to use the theory of"three worlds"to detail the implication of"the world, "and further expounds the rationality and implication of the statement that"literature reproduces the world."
