解读“人及其社会是文化的产物”

The Interpretation of That "Persons and Their Society Are the Products of Culture"

广义的文化分三个层面:心理层面、体制层面和器物层面。文化的核心是哲学,因为哲学是一个民族思维方式、思想观念、信仰体系和价值观的集中体现。文化是由人创造的,但人又反过来受文化模式的强烈影响和制约,从而成为文化的"产物"。这就意味着,不同的文化模式或文化背景决定了个人做什么或不做什么,用什么方法去做以及信仰什么或不信仰什么,从而最终决定人及其由这些人组成的社会的性质和状况。

Generalized culture has three strata： psychology , system and implements stratum . The nucleus of culture is philosophy because philosophy embodies a concentrated reflection of mode of thinking , ideology , system of faith and outlook of value of a nation . Culture is created by persons, but persons contrariwise are strongly influenced and restricted by the cultural pattern , and thus become＂ products ＂of the culture . This means that different cultural patterns or backgrounds determine what persons do or don＇ t do , what way persons do with and what persons believe or don＇ t believe ,thereby finally determine the quality and condition of the persons and the society composed by these persons.
