In this paper, the difficulties and problems of research on Chinese classical literature are analyzed, and ways to deal with the difficulties are shown. One way is to take part in literature creation and reflect on the current literature carefully. The second way is to reconstruct an independent and explicit classical literature research field, which should be a steady and exoteric system. The third approach is to find the key problem of the research to create variable scientific research methods and to advance the communication between Chinese and western culture. The last is to exert the research individuality and rebuild the research characteristics. These ways are put out to seek the living conditions, the development and the perfection of the ancient literature.
