论五四运动与当代中国的文化复兴

On Relationships Between May 4th Movement and Cultural Renaissance of Contemporary China

20世纪的五四新文化运动是中国历史上具有“文艺复兴”性质的文化运动,但却是一次被中断而没有完成历史任务的文化复兴运动。当代中国经济快速崛起,社会变革转型,文化需求剧增,中华民族的伟大复兴给中国文化的伟大复兴提供了历史机遇和可能性。中国文化的复兴需汲取传统文化的营养,也需借鉴西方优秀文化的成果。为此,既要防范过度强调中国传统历史文化的主体性,也要警惕“后现代”的误区。

The May 4th New Culture Movement in the 20th century is a cultural movement with the nature of Renaissance in Chinese history, but it was not very thorough and successful. In contemporary China, the rapid economic rise, social transformation, sharp increase in cultural demand and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation provide historical opportunities and possibilities for the great rejuvenation of Chinese culture. This needs to absorb the nutrition of Chinese traditional culture, and also learn from the achievements of western excellent culture. Special attention should be paid to the phenomenon of overemphasizing the importance of Chinese traditional culture and the avoidance of being influenced by postmodernism.
