A comparative Study of novels written by American Writer Jack London and Chinese Writer Jiang Rong

The Call of the Wild has been the most widely read American novel in the world,while the Wolf Totem has made a hit since its publication. This paper attempts to conduct text analysis on these two works about wolves from the perspective of Ecocriticism and make a parallel study between them according to the theory of Comparative Literature. By comparison, this thesis aims to find the similar and different points between the two works, trying to find a more reasonable answer to the question of human's relation with the nature.
