本文主張：宏觀的文學史，需要宏觀的文學研究：宏觀的文學研究，需要宏觀的文學義界。從而指出宏觀文學義界，既要就各時代各族群的文學現象作爬梳整理；也要就文學的內因外緣作分析評判，始能獲獲致。宏觀的文學研究，一方面應尊此學門權威學者的意見；另方面亦應就此學門實際現象作分析歸納；並須對文學研究各部門間的相互關係有所認識。宏觀的中國文學史，應包括四種層面；現象之呈現；現象的詮釋與批判；現象本質與發展規律之抽繹；現象及研究成果之全面比較。結語則指出；文學史應與文學理論、文學批評、暨比較文學相結合。並希望一部全面的、綜合的、宏觀的中國文學史，在分工合作的集體計劃研究下，能在 2001 年之後不久，燦然出現在學術的呈空中。
