文化视域下的中国古代道路景观分析

A cultural analysis of the road landscape in ancient China

从文化的视角来看,中国古代道路立面景观形态有三大特色,即:亭、牌坊、关。"亭"是古代中国人在道路设施上的情感表达载体;"牌坊"是中国古人的人伦价值与传统道德在道路景观上的物化展示;"关"是古代中国军事设施与交通基础设施的合一建筑体,是古代中国人在军事空间意识、文化空间意识、地理生态空间意识在道路路域景观上的综合体现。中国古代道路景观的外显性特点内涵着古代中国的国家价值取向,隐喻着国家精神文化之路,彰显着古代中国意识形态控制的特殊而有效的方式。

The road landscape in ancient China is characterized by ting,paifang and guan,i.e.pavilion,memorial archway and pass.The pavilion as a road facility is the representation of the emotions of ancient Chinese;the memorial archway is a representation of their values and morals;and the pass serving both as a military and road facility is the embodiment of their understanding of military,culture,geography and ecology.Revealing the values of the ruling class in ancient China,the three characteristics were examples of how they manipulated people.
