One of these aspects is a hermeneutic problem of understanding and interpretation of the text, or as one of options, --a ratio of the text and a personal context. There are both generality and distinctions in approaches of various cultures to this problem. There are many parallels that can be drawn between the directions and results of the investigation of the European and Buddhist hermeneutic traditions. The European hermeneutics on the whole is known to be based on the presumption of the unique personal authorship of a text, a multitude of historical viewpoints and meanings. Thus, the problem of understanding and interpretation acts as a problem of combining differences. The mechanism of conveying the cultural traditions under such conditions inevitably turns into a mechanism of interpreting the message conveying a definite cultural meaning. Modifying the meaning of any message is supposed to be dictated by the very fact of the temporal distance between the moments of creating and reading the text. In a number of oriental cultures, we face a somewhat different understanding of the problems of authorship, communication, ontology, and existence and on the whole, with a different understanding of the very problem of understanding. Just like we admit that it is necessary to preserve all existing natural landscapes, in the cultural life, we must consider every existing culture and their bearers--ethnic groups self-valuable and necessary.展开更多

Statements by some important Peking University intellectuals, such as University President Cai Yuanpei （蔡元培） and Professors Chen Duxiu （陈独秀）, Hu Shi （胡适）, Zhou Zuoren （周作人）, etc. are discussed in detail. Special attention is given to those comments that stand out as against ＂majority opinion＂. Neither the Communists nor the Nationalists were key leaders during the first stage of the movement. It was the clash of core Chinese cultural values with those of Christianity and the Chinese desire to industrialize a country overwhelmed by the Western powers that were instrumental in the instigation of the Anti-Christian Movement.展开更多
