<p>Based on the framework of language</p><p>construction and psychoanalysis, this study</p><p>analyzes love and worldly ideal, which are</p><p>presented by Tang Xianzu and Cervantes in</p><em></em><p><em>Peony Pavilion </em>and <em>Don Quixote</em>. Due to the</p><p>similar experience and life sentiment, the two</p><p>authors showed amazing consistency on creative</p><p>thinking, writing skill, creative psychology and</p><p>even marriage notion, which verified the</p><p>communicative idiomatum between eastern</p><p>and western literature in the same era</p>
