Abstract:

LI Zhi's attitude to the comments about Water Margin is serious and solemn. It is not just a common appreciation, the more
is to express his inner impression and anger through the affirmation and praise on the thinking and characters in the novel, for showing
his own social and political thoughts based on the comments on the novel. Meanwhile, the comments are just the expansion and
application of literary theory and philosophy which are from LI Zhi's "Childlike Innocence Theory".

Key words: LI Zhi, Water Margin, literary criticism
