Abstract:
Though LIU Xie’s views toward emotion and diction differ from the Susanne Langer’s toward feelings and their forms from the perspective of background and their theoretical foundations, they share the similarities in the relation between emotion and diction, and feelings and their forms: i. both emotion and diction, and feelings and their forms are compulsory elements that make up a text; ii. both views agree the priority of emotion or feelings; iii. the form has a dynamic retroaction on feelings.
