基于武侠与忍者的中日文化比较分析

A Comparison of Chinese Martial Arts and Japanese Ninja Cultures

武侠与忍者分别是中国和日本具有代表意义的流行文化之一。两者都是以"武"为主题的文化并都受到了世界的广泛关注。中国广袤的自然地理、绵延千年的社会结构与蓬勃的民族宗教是形成中华独特的武侠文化的主要原因。日本在封闭的自然风土、基于共同体的社会结构、固有的山岳信仰再加之来自中国的外来文化的影响下形成了忍者文化。将武侠文化与忍者文化进行比较分析,可以发现中国武侠精神的核心在于"义",支撑"义"的基础来源于中国高度重视伦理道德的国情;日本忍者精神的核心在于"忍",支撑"忍"的基础来源于日本高度重视审美情感的国情。中日精神追求的差异产生了不同的文化,也产生了中日不同的国民性格。
