摘要
through different culture systems, literature has to face the varied culture molds, an unavoidable phenomenon in comparative literature study which triggers the variation. The culture filter, the most prominent one in all phenomena, means that in the process during which literature travels from sending side to recieving side, the recipient has done a series of behaviors including selecting, bowdlerizing and innovating. It is easy to confuse culture filter with literature reception. The key point of distinguishing them depends on our realization that culture filter is caused not by simply subjective reception but by different culture molds. At the same time, culture filter brings about a more obvious phenomenon: misreading of literature, which forms in the process when literature goes across heterogenous culture circles and culture filter. What is the relationship between culture filter and literature misreading? How do they happen? What are the internal laws of the variation? All of these major problems of culture filter and literature misreading will be under discussion.
