城市化、乡愁与精神文化之原乡

Urbanization,nostalgia and the root of spiritual culture

乡愁的产生源于人的内心、或一种文化,是因心灵之家遭到变故、文化受到破坏而带来的一种惆怅、失落的情绪。所谓"故乡",不仅是人们的生养之地,更是指精神之家、文化之原乡。城市化带来物质文明的高度发达,但这并不意味着人的精神安顿问题可以相应得到解决。人要诗意地栖居于这个世界,不仅要靠高度的物质文明、制度文明,同样也需要高度的精神文明与文化。乡愁产生的原因之一,就在于伴随着城市化和物欲膨胀,现实离我们的本心、精神家园越来越远;人们在都巿扩张的逼仄之下,急躁盲从、遑遑不安,对如何安顿自己的心灵、乃至于对自己的人生走向无所适从,追求真正的生命存在及其价值的能力也大打折扣。因此,在城巿化的不断发展过程中,若能有意识地增进人文与价值的关怀,就能使人们的"乡愁"得到疏导、化解。

Coming from one's heart or a culture,nostalgia is a melancholy,lost mood because the homeland of soul was changed,the culture was destroyed.The so-called'hometown',not only people's birthplace,but also refers to spiritual home,the root of culture.Urbanization brings a high degree of material civilization,but this does not mean that the problem of human spiritual settlement can be resolved accordingly.People want to live in this world poetically,not only rely on a high degree of material civilization,institutional civilization,but also requires a high degree of spiritual civilization and culture.One of the reasons for the emergence of nostalgia is that with the urbanization and materialistic expansion,the reality is increasingly far away from our heart and spiritual home;People living under the force of the expansion of city,impatient,uneasy,do not know how to settle their own mind,and even lose their direction of life and the ability of pursuit of the real life of the existence;what's more,value have been greatly reduced.Therefore,in the process of continuous development of urbanization,we should promote human and value care consciously so that'nostalgia'can be resolved.
