论秦汉时期屋室建筑的文化内涵

On the Cultural Connotation of House Building in the Qin and Han Dynasties

先秦时期,屋室建筑只是时人安身立命之所,除其外观可直观显现居住者的社会地位与经济实力外,并没有夹杂过多的文化内涵。而自秦汉以来,随着社会经济与文化的发展,人们开始将文化内涵赋予屋室建筑,这些文化内涵包括风俗习惯、制度规范、思维方式、价值观念、审美情趣等因素。随着汉王朝与边地族群交往的日益密切,原属于汉王朝的屋室建筑文化也逐渐地开始向外传播。一方面,边地族群因向往中原地区的屋室建筑文化从而主动向中原地区进行学习;另一方面,边地族群出于对中原地区屋室建筑文化实用性的考虑,逐步模仿并应用相关文化。中原地区在对边地族群进行历史书写时,屋室建筑文化还可以被作为判断文明发展程度的标准。

In the pre-Qin period,house building was only a living quarters,which had almost no cultural meaning except to intuitively show the social status and economic strength of residents.With the development of social economy and culture since the Qin and Han dynasties,people began to assign cultural connotations to residential buildings,including customs,institutional norms,ways of thinking,values,and aesthetic tastes and other factors.The more and more frequent contact between the great Han Empire and the ethnic groups in the border areas helps the house building culture originally belonged to the Han Dynasty to spread to the outside world.On the one hand,these nationalities take the initiative to learn from the Central Plains because they yearned for its architectural culture.On the other hand,they started to passively adopt its architecture form due to the practicality of the house building culture of the Central Plains.In the history of these ethnic groups written in the Central Plains,the architectural culture of houses can also be used as a standard to judge the degree of civilization development.
