Abstract: “Xing” and “Imitation” are two core categories in Chinese and western literary narratives. Although Xing of Chinese literature and Imitation of western literature are closely related to the occurrence and development of literature， they have no intersection or influence with each other. At its root， Xing of Chinese literature mainly appears in literary narration as a means of expression and a lyric mode， while Imitation of western literature is mainly related to the origin and the essence of art. This explanation emphasizes the heterogeneity between the two， but ignores the common characteristics between the two， that is， Xing and Imitation as literary narrative strategies run through the development of Chinese and western literature from the beginning to the end， and are formed in literary narratives. They have a kind of “discourse hegemony”， and the two have a certain family similarity in embodying emotions， understanding the world， and interpreting the world. It can be seen that comparing and studying Xing and Imitation in the same context has undeniable theoretical value and practical significance.
