濯于始终:古丝绸之路始终点的“池浴文化”——以古罗马卡拉卡拉浴场和唐代华清宫为例

Bathing in Rome and Chang'an:The"Pool Bath Culture"of the Starting and Ending Cities of the Ancient Silk Road--Take Thermae of Caracalla in Ancient Rome and Huaqing Palace in Tang Dynasty as Examples

卡拉卡拉浴场和华清池分别代表了古罗马和大唐这两个曾经叱咤东西方的强大帝国的"池浴文化",不但影响了两大地区人民的价值取向与文化发展,更影响了两大古老帝国的政治发展走向。然而它们虽然都代表着"池浴文化",但它们所反映的文化内涵并不是完全一致的,掌握两者的异同点,是掌握丝绸之路上东西方两大文明中心社会文化的重要方法。

The "Thermae of Caracalla" and the "Huaqing Palace" respectively represent the two imprints of the "pool bath culture" of the ancient Roman Empire and the Tang Empire. "pool bath culture" not only affected the value orientation and cultural development of the people in the two regions, but also affected the political development of the two ancient empires. However, although they all represent the "pool bath culture", the cultural connotations they reflect are not completely consistent. Mastering the similarities and differences between the two is an important method for mastering the social culture of the two major civilization centers on the Silk Road.
