Parallel prose is a special literary genre in Chinese literature, characteristic of the specialness of Chinese culture from its emergence to its development. For one thing, the particularity of Chinese characters provides the basic material and physical means; for another, the notion of traditional Chinese culture, such as the symmetry of Yin and Yang, cherishing classics and worshipping ancestry, etc. has greatly influenced the formation and development of parallel prose. Its stylistic language fully reflects the unique trait of the language used by the nationality and its cultural connotations.
