On Funeral and Burial Cultures and the Interpretation of Chapter Titles in Wen Xin Diao Long

中国文化重视生养死葬,在丧葬礼仪一系列繁文缛节背后,渗透着中国人沟通人神、穿越生死两界的诗性观念,彰显出中国文化注重人文关怀和人伦温情的文化品格,同时也体现出中国人生荣死贵、生卑死贱的伦常等级观念。刘勰的《文心雕龙》秉承了中国传统文化的基本精神,其中《诔碑篇》、《哀吊篇》就体现了刘勰对传统中国丧葬文化基本精神的理解,以及对悼念类文章语言形式的基本要求。

Support of the alive and burial of the dead are great concerns for Chinese people. Underlying the rituals of funeral and burials are Chinese poetic ideas of connecting the human and the immortal, the alive and the dead. They signify emphasis of humanist concerns and ethical warmth in Chinese culture as well as Chinese people＇s idea of hierarchy consistency in life and in burial . As Liu Xie＇s Wen Xin Diao Long is based traditional Chinese culture, its ＂ Lei Bei Plan＂ （essays on tombstone remarks） and ＂ Ai Diao Pian＂ （eulogy） display the author＇s understanding of traditional funeral and burial culture and basic requirements of the languages in essays for lament, eulogy or memorial.
