中國當(dāng)代文學(xué)研究著名學(xué)者、福建師大孫紹振教授5日在廈門表示，中國作家莫言獲得諾貝爾文學(xué)獎，表明諾獎需要中國，中國文學(xué)的發(fā)展，促使其改變了100多年無視中國文學(xué)發(fā)展成就的態(tài)度。

Xiamen(CNS)-- Mo Yan's winning of the Nobel Literature Prize shows that Chinese literature is no longer being overlooked, according to an expert at a symposium held in Xiamen, Fujian province, on Saturday.

Mo's works are world-class masterpieces that build a bridge between China and world literature, said Sun Shaozhen, a professor at Fujian Normal University.

The growth of Chinese literature needed recognition from the Nobel committee, and Mo's winning demonstrates that the international award also needs Chinese literature, he said.

Mo's winning of the prize will promote the publication and sale of books by other Chinese writers in overseas markets, he also said.
