汉外文化关键概念对比研究刍议

Humble opinions on comparative studies of foreign and Chinese cultures' key concepts

文化研究的跨学科性质,导致了文化研究方法的多元化;文化自身的丰富性,也导致了文化特征的难以界定性。在文化批评研究、人类学研究、社会学研究之外,我们还需要用更细小更精确的方法来进行文化研究,即关键概念研究。本研究对概念、概念分析方法进行了界定,并建构了汉外文化关键概念分类框架,筛选了部分关键概念,从而确立了研究特定文化关键概念的理论基础,最后以"人"的概念为例进行了实践探索,探讨了在跨文化视域下通过语言学维度、哲学语境、文学语境和社会生活语境分析进行概念对比研究的理论框架和研究范式,得出理论框架和研究范式可行有效的结论。

Interdisciplinary nature of cultural study leads to diversity of research methods on culture; and richness of culture results in difficulty to define cultural characteristics. Other than study on cultural criticism, anthropology and sociology, we need more defined and accurate method to carry out cultural study, which is called study on key concept. This study defines concept and analytical method on concept, constructs the framework to categorize key concept of Chinese language culture and screens some key con- cepts before entrenching theoretical foundation to study key concepts of specific culture. It concludes by u- tilizing the concept of ＂people＂ to conduct pragmatic explorations, probing into theoretical framework and research model of comparative study on concepts via analysis of linguistic dimension, philosophical con- text, literature context and social context before drawing the conclusion on viability of theoretical frame- work and research model.
