The Difference between Chinese and American Core Values: from the role shaping of Animation ——Taking Kung Fu Panda and Nezha Conquers the Dragon King for example

动画,这一勾起童年记忆的艺术形式,在给人类的童年增添无数乐趣的同时直接或间接反映了一个国家的价值观取向。文章以《功夫熊猫》和《哪吒闹海》为例,通过对比中美主要动画角色的塑造差异,进而从对人与环境关系的态度、时间取向与活动取向、等级观念与平等意识、对自身与他人、社会集体关系的态度四个方面探讨分析中美核心价值观的差异。

Animation, as an art form which recalls the memory of childhood, brings about countless joys while reflecting the values orientation of a country directly or indirectly at the same time. Taking Kung Fu Panda and Nezha Conquers the Dragon King for example, this thesis analyzes the difference between Chinese and American core values through exploration into four aspects of attitude towards the relationship between human and environment, time orientation and activity orientation, hierarchical concept and consciousness of equality, and attitude towards the relationship between oneself and others as well as the society by comparison of the difference between the role shaping of the main characters respectively in Chinese and American animation films.
