Abstract

This paper focuses on the historical background and cultural context of Yu Dafu’s travel essays. It analyzes the characteristics of cultural heritage in his essays and their pedagogical applications from the perspectives of cultural memory transmission, reconstruction of teaching cognition, and the three - dimensional ability - cultivation path of heuristic teaching. By integrating Yu Dafu’s creative process and classic works as a modern Chinese writer, this study explores the regional cultural heritage in his travel essays and their contributions to teaching applications, providing insights for the cultivation of applied liberal arts talents in the new era.
