Abstract:The powerful earthquake happened in Wenchuan has triggered incessant creation and research of disaster literature.However,when creation is concerned,lyric and documentary works are superabundant while fiction writing is insufficient,and when it comes to research,personal comments and impromptu reviews are superfluous while theoretical analysis is not enough.It is advisable to analyse systematically,wholesomely and thoroughly the literature phenomena resulted from Wenchuan Earthquake,highlighting the people-oriented moral appeal conveyed and expressed by disaster literature,the social significance of being united as one and the construction of socialist core value system.
