异域相合:“剪纸-汉字”与中华优秀传统文化的传承创新

Harmony Between Different Cultures:“Paper-cutting and Chinese Characters”and the Inheritance and Innovation of Excellent Traditional Chinese Culture

剪纸与汉字作为中华优秀传统文化的代表,历史悠久,都是重要的文化表达媒介。剪纸与汉字有着共同的文化基因,呈现了“你中有我,我中有你”的同生共进效应。这种“异域相合”表现在符号使用、静态构图、动态创作以及成品运用等方面。剪纸、汉字在中国传承不息,并已传播到其他国家和地区,但不同地域的剪纸、汉字,也呈现“异域相合”的风貌。“异域相合”的基底,是中国艺术与文字在远古发源与漫长发展中融会贯通的结果,也包含了长期民族融合中形成的中华民族思维共性。基于“剪纸-汉字”的异域相合进行中华优秀传统文化的传承创新,能够形成互相辉映的合力效应,增强中华文明的传播力和影响力,或可成为中华优秀传统文化传承、传播的一种新范式。

As representatives of the excellent traditional Chinese culture,paper cutting and Chinese characters have a long history and are important cultural mediums.Paper cutting and Chinese characters share common cultural genes,presenting a symbiotic effect of“mutual inclusion”.This“harmony between different cultures”is manifested in symbol usage,static composition,dynamic creation,and application of finished products.Paper cutting and Chinese characters have been inherited continuously in China and have spread to other countries and regions.However,paper cutting and Chinese characters from different regions also exhibit the charm of“harmony between different cultures”.The foundation of this“harmony between different cultures”is the result of the integration of ancient Chinese art with writing during its long development process,which also includes the shared thinking patterns formed through long-term ethnic integration within the Chinese nation.Based on the harmonious coexistence between paper cutting and Chinese characters,inheriting and innovating excellent traditional Chinese culture can create a synergistic effect that enhances the dissemination power and influence of Chinese civilization.It may become a new paradigm for inheriting and disseminating excellent traditional Chinese culture.
