Ruling the country by law is first of all ruling the country according to the Constitution. The base of the rule of law is sound laws, its pretext is constitutional governance and its core is the restriction public powers. The CPC’s leadership in the rule of law means that the Party leads the people to formulate the Constitution and laws, and takes the lead to believe in and abide by them. The construction of lawruled country starts from constitutional bases and principles. The ways and measures of realizing the rule of law include perfecting the socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics and with the Constitution at the core so as to establish China’s “Sunshine Law”, fortifying the implementation of the Constitution, enhancing and improving the constitutional supervision over public powers, further weakening the administrative intervention in judicial system and ensuring the independence of the collegial panel. It is essential to enhance the checking system of the National People’s Congress against any constitutional violations, to establish and perfect the investigation and punishing system against constitutional violations and to increase the supervision over organs of public powers. All of this is an important part of the reform of legislation, law enforcement and judicial system, and necessary requirements for achieving ruling the country according to the Constitution, upholding the constitutional authority and adhering to the paramountcy of the Constitution.

Oil and gas resources, as the core of world energy consumption, possess both economic and political value and profoundly influence the development of contemporary international political and economic relations. China and Russia are major world energy import and export country respectively, and their game in the area of energy cooperation not only exerts great influence on bilateral political and economic relations, but also on geopolitical and economic patterns in Northeast Asia, Middle Asia, Europe and other related areas. “Shale gas revolution” will promote the adjustment of world energy pattern and geopolitical and economic pattern on one hand, and affect to some degree SinoRussian energy cooperation process on the other hand. In order to achieve its own energy security, China must draft scientific international energy strategies while fully understanding current energy supply and demand relations and the development of international political and economic relations.

 During the process of contemporary Chinese film creation and production, the number of films with themes of significant revolutions and historical events is considerable and their influence is enormous. As a paradigm of reconstructing history, creations of films featuring significant revolutions and historical events emerge and boom in response to the new period, which have been closely related to and of great importance in China’s realistic politics, historical memories and national recognition over the past 30 years. Those films, through excavation and presentation of an important page in Chinese national history, at times appear as the carrier of shared imagination of Chinese nation, and at other times enhance the mainstream ideology. However，in the current audiencedominated era featuring media integration and rising marketization, it is far from enough to take account of such factors as correct political stand, mainstream ideology and commercial value to prevent revolutionary language from elapsing or vanishing from the public view. To tackle the transitional problem confronted by significant historical themes and their revolutionary language, we must add modernity construction and introspection while absorbing confidence and belief conducive to historical rationality and universal applicability.

 The key to understanding Deleuze’s film classification theory is to comprehend his philosophy of differentiation. In the light of this philosophy, Deleuze classifies film images into two categories: motion images and time images. As the two set of images are placed in differentiated thinking, images appear to be realistic and objective on one hand, and potential and subjective on the other. Rightly in the sense of attending to the two conflicting sides Deleuze develops his unique film image classification system, according to which images are basically classified on the principles of time and space. Nevertheless, the highly abstract philosophical propositions are hard to be integrated into reallife film images, not to say conduct effect “management”. It is evident that Deleuze establishes his own film theory system by taking account of documentary aesthetics while considering philosophical images. In view of this, the relations of classification is in some sense the relation between documentary aesthetics and philosophy, and the transition between the two is the result of subtle coordination between observation (or interpretive description) and philosophical thinking.

 The poetry since Song Dynasty has been characterized with the trend of routinization, localization and privatization to some degree. Zhuzhici of Qing Dynasty, poetry expressing longing for friends and loved ones, the compilation of collections like Nostalgic Collection, poetry in memory of the past and so on made the trend all the more obvious. Among them, enormous concomitant nonclassical poems have unique value hard to be explained by classical poetics. “Situational Poetics” in particular, which has been refined during the birth and development of poetry since the Song Dynasty, emphasizes psychic and livelihood levels, thus entrusting modern poetry with new meaning in terms of routinization, localization and privatization in concrete life situations. “Situational Poetics” not only points to modern poetry, but also works as an effective route to understanding nonclassical poetry through the ages.

 “Poetic imagery theory” can by no means account for all features in poetry. This is particularly true when the tradition of onthespot recording and narration is emphasized in classical poetry, thus calling for a different interpretive tool. “Circumstanceoriented theory” gained gradual prominence after the brewing of poetics in Ming and Qing Dynasties and especially after the employment by figures like Weng Fanggang and Fang Dongshu. “Circumstanceoriented theory” reflects an important train of thought in classical poetics which highlights and reflects on “circumstance”, and address “circumstance” head on. Therefore, it is worthwhile to construct contemporary academic system of “circumstanceoriented theory” based on its development in classical poetics.

The paper elaborates on Yishan’s sevencharacter quatrains in narrative perspective in terms of time and space relations, narrative behavior, narrative style, poetic context, syntax and grammar, aiming at artistic evaluation. In Yishan’s sevencharacter quatrains, the narrative time and space features the intertwining of remoteness and closeness, the reflection of emptiness and concreteness, the contention of reality and imagination; The narrative style is characterized with subtleness, implicitness and intricacy; The narrative techniques include entangling plots, gradual mapping of structures and extricate suspense. All of this makes Yishan’s quatrains rich in contents and ideas with logic and deep feelings at extremely short length. By applying narrative analysis to Yishan’s quatrains which are praised as “flowing treasures with silk netlike constructions”, we can not only understand their poetic context, but also grasp the subtleness and development of poetic heart and poetic connotations. The introduction of narrative analysis of Chinese classical poetry is conducive to the return of its research to original literature studies and possibly in an indepth manner.
