An Exploration of Traditional Chinese Cultural Programs:The Construction of Rituals,Narrative Strategies,and Experiential Insights

In the context of the cultural development of the new era and the burgeoning spiritual demands of the people,there has been a remarkable surge in the proliferation of traditional Chinese cultural programs.The“Chinese Festivals”series,produced by Henan TV,standing out as an engaging TV program that showcases traditional Chinese culture,has rapidly captivated a diverse audience across different age groups,creating a rich,multi-dimensional,and cross-media cultural communication ecosystem.The program strategically selects symbolic elements by systematically categorizing and organizing traditional Chinese cultural symbols to create a rich cultural space.It employs cutting-edge scientific and technological methods to enrich viewer immersion,crafting media rituals with both temporal significance and a profound sense of media ritual.This approach boosts the program’s popularity and sets a benchmark for industry innovation.By fostering an interactive narrative between mainstream media and the public,the program continuously broadens the scope of the“story world,”fostering a harmonious and structured national cultural community through the creative interpretation of traditional Chinese culture and the evocative crafting of the aesthetic sensibilities inherent in Chinese art.It is worth noting that the phenomenon of aesthetic fatigue besets the development of this serial program.To address this issue and further improve the appeal of the program,a comprehensive approach is required to develop a cohesive narrative mode for the“story world.”This involves harmonizing the interplay between artistic endeavors and technological advancements,synchronizing sensory experiences with the foundational ritualistic elements,and enhancing the effectiveness of the media communication matrix to construct a brand of media culture that has social significance,aesthetic value,and economic profits in the new era.

The Inheritance and Development of Chinese Narrative Medicine Practice to the Philosophical Wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Starting from the inheritance and promotion of Chinese life philosophy and traditional Chinese medicine wisdom by Chinese narrative medicine practice,this paper discusses the inheritance and echo relationship between the“close textual reading ability”in Chinese narrative medicine practice and the“four diagnoses”in traditional Chinese medicine wisdom,narrative mediation and the“mind-body holistic philosophy”in traditional Chinese medicine,and narrative wisdom and Dao Sheng in Chinese life philosophy.Meanwhile,by analyzing the stories of contemporary doctors’practice of narrative intelligence,this paper expounds that Chinese narrative medicine is a new model of medical education and clinical practice based on the absorption of Chinese traditional life wisdom and the essence of traditional Chinese medicine culture,and the integration of western narrative medicine concepts.It also advocates Chinese scholars to actively build the discipline of“narrative traditional Chinese medicine,”constantly translate the academic achievements to foreign countries,and create a good narrative ecology of traditional Chinese medicine.

Narrative Medicine Under the Guidance of Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory

This paper is an exploration into the practice of narrative medicine in the clinical setting guided by the theory and approaches of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).By adopting the theory of TCM,the author attempted to provide the patients with systematic treatment from the perspective of society-psychology-biology under the guidance of both the unity of Heaven and Man,and the unity of Xing(Body)and Shen(Mind/Spirit)through his clinical practice.Guided by yin-yang and Wu Xing(Five Elements)theory and focusing on the social relations of the patients for any possible relationships between patients’social,psychological and biological state,the author took the patients’emotion management as a point of departure and helped the patients recover both physically and psychologically by promoting positive transformation in patients’social,psychological,and biological state.A clinical case was provided at the end of this paper to demonstrate how the above theory was put into practice.Narrative medicine under the guidance of TCM theory can supplement modern medical humanity practices as well as extend the scope of modern medical treatment from the perspective of the unity of Heaven and Man,by enriching the content of narrative medicine,and promoting the medical model from biological medical model toward social-psychological-biological model.

Chinese-to-English Translation of Publicity on Chinese Minority Culture From Narrative Perspectives

Narrative is a literary notion.In narrative translation theory,narrative involves personal narrative,public narrative,disciplinary narrative,and meta-narrative.This paper adopts the notions of personal narrative,public narrative,and meta-narrative to analyze specific cases concerning the Chinese-to-English translation on Chinese minority culture publicity,proposes two narrative translation models,namely,the annotation narrative translation model and the manipulative narrative translation model,and explores the concrete translation procedures and the embodied meta-narrative,covering introduction to minority tales,minority festivals,and minority customs.Narrative translation research is part of the multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary turn in the 21st century,and this research is an organic part of cross-cultural communication translatology.

Narration and Healing of Psychological Trauma in Chinese Left-behind Children

The problem of left-behind children appears under the background of China’s industrialization,urbanization and modernization with the deepening of its reform and opening up. From 1980s,literature began to give attention to this special phenomenon.Many writers wrote about children’s psychological trauma in alienated families and social environment,and also gave suggestions on the healing of left-behind children’ psychological trauma in their works. This paper argues that the weakening of family education,the deficiency of schooling and the low social coordination are essential factors that lead to the psychological trauma of left-behind children in rural China. Joint effort from family,school and society contribute to the healing of the trauma,among which,love,writings and speeches are effective ways.

Conversation with presence:A narrative inquiry into the learning experience of Chinese students studying nursing at Australian universities

Aim：the aim of this methodological article is to reflect on and extend current understandings of the possibilities of narrative inquiry research giving voice to students, and to expand the power of story by sharing the philosophical, theoretical, and methodological considerations of narrative inquiry in an international education context.Background： there has been much discussion about the need in providing a ‘voice＇ to people across the society, who feel marginalised in many contexts, including international students. There is limited research about Chinese students studying in Australia. In particular, the learning experience of Chinese nursing students has not been fully explored nor understood.Discussion： to enhance teaching and learning in international education contexts, and to cater better to international students, it is important to understand their experiences and perspectives. There is no better way to achieve this level of understanding than to let students＇ voices be heard, to let them speak for and about themselves because reality exists within these students＇ perceptions.Conclusions： in the context of international education, narrative inquiry as a research methodology,when used with sensitivity and reflexivity, through the power of stories, offers a new dimension in the international education research.

The Outsider Perspective: Classical Chinese Philosophy in the Narrative Framework of the European Enlightenment

The purpose of this article is to enhance the understanding of how Classical Chinese Philosophy has been interpreted and transferred by Enlightenment thinkers into the narrative framework of European philosophy as a far-reaching source of ideas and inspiration with a driving force for promoting modern European social change. We examine outsider perspectives within the context of Enlightenment thinking that contributed to advances in the cross-cultural understanding of how Chinese stories could be disseminated in the framework of East-West dialogue.

Agency Fluctuations and Identity Transformations in Chinese English-Majors on Their Learning Trajectories

This paper explores agency fluctuations and identity transformations in Chinese English-majors and how they are related to the process of English learning. By tracing a group of students for four years in a Chinese university and conducting qualitative analyses to their oral narrations of learning experiences at different periods, the study has found that most participants started and ended their university life at relatively high levels of agency, with inevitable ups and downs in between. Agency fluctuations in the learners are the result of their identity positioning and repositioning within a complex and ever-changing context. Concordant or conflicting identities may co-exist within an individual learner and keep changing across different situations. Learner identities will cause increase or reduction in their investment in English learning, while their learning experience will in turn reinforce or undermine their identities. The study sheds light on the intricate relationships between agency, identity and language learning and therefore has important implications for English learning and teaching in China.

德国巴陵会传教手册的中国书写与话语范式

德国巴陵会出版的系列传教手册以传教士在华工作日志、信徒传记、通俗小说等形式摹写中国信徒故事、见闻实录、礼俗文化,是德国基督教徒认识与感知中国的重要文本。传教士笔下的“中国故事”多以“虚化他者”为目的,拘囿于“喻道功能”的皮相加工和机械的“叙事搬运”,选择性解读与歧化中国文化思想内核,使“中国故事”被征用、变异与西传的同时,沦为传教文学训喻功能下的异托邦文化幻象。

讲好民族团结进步故事在高校铸牢中华民族共同体意识教育中的叙事逻辑

民族团结进步故事是高校铸牢中华民族共同体意识教育的重要育人资源。在高校铸牢中华民族共同体意识教育中讲好“故事”,既是铸牢中华民族共同体意识的题中之义,也是高校铸牢中华民族共同体意识教育的现实所需,还是破除西方历史虚无主义话语迷雾的必要之举。要讲好中华民族自在状态下的融合故事、自觉状态下的团结故事、自为状态下的奋进故事,通过“显”与“隐”“雅”与“俗”“学”与“做”的有机结合,从而有形、有感、有效的铸牢高校学生的中华民族共同体意识,最终回答好“为何讲”“讲什么”“如何讲”的问题。

新疆民族研究与叙事中的“情”与“理”

“情感”与“理性”在民族研究与叙事中起着重要的作用。“情感”与“理性”二者之间关系把握得好,可以得出客观、科学的结论,否则就可能走向事物的反面。在“把铸牢中华民族共同体意识作为党的民族工作和民族地区各项工作的主线”的思想指导下,在新疆民族研究与叙事中,只有把握好民族形成与发展过程中的“源”与“流”、“以文证史”与“以文代史”、民族研究方法及理论继承与借鉴、中华文化与各民族文化、国家与民族等关系与跨境族群的情感表达,才能得出客观、科学的结论,才有可能解决“文化润疆”所要达到的从根本上切实解决政治认同、人心向背的“五观”认同的问题。

《武则天四大奇案》的涉医叙事与晚清公案小说的转型

《武则天四大奇案》是成书于光绪初年的公案小说。受西医重视客观的检查结果、人体解剖等思想影响,作者利用狄仁杰假扮医者访案、命仵作检验尸体、医治涉案病人等诸多涉医描写,塑造了具有较强对头特性的罪犯和重视科学断案方式与客观证据的狄仁杰,体现出西方侦探小说的创作特点及西方理性主义与英雄主义思想文化。这表明该小说在福尔摩斯系列侦探小说传入中国前,就已受到西方侦探小说的影响开始初步转型。只是在当时洋务运动“中学为体、西学为用”思想的影响下,《武则天四大奇案》并没有完全接受西医的思想观念,没有全盘西方侦探小说化,仍体现出传统公案小说的一些特点及对一些传统思想观念的坚持。

构建“活的中国”:中国故事的移情叙事与共情传达

1936年埃德加·斯诺编译的《活的中国:现代中国短篇小说选》在英国出版,通过对中国新文艺的编译,斯诺逐步理解了中国社会的深层问题,切身体会了中国人民的感情,也与中国及中国文学实现了一种共情共鸣。由此,《活的中国》便不仅仅是对早期中国现代文学的简单推介,更是斯诺自身情感对象化的结果,带有了某种移情叙事的功能。在编译过程中,斯诺用西方读者易于接受的方式二度创作了那些中国故事,并将其置放在彼时世界左翼文学的大背景中,赋予中国文学与民族话语以人类普遍的情感共识,展示了一个“活的中国”。这样的共情传达,打破了传播中的“沉默螺旋”,从而在一定程度上消解了由于文化差异而产生的海外传播障碍。

身入其境:数字超高清成像时代电视节目表意空间的敞开性——以河南卫视“中国节日”系列节目为例

讲好中国故事的叙事修辞进路

讲好中国故事是提升国家对外传播效能和增强国际话语权的重要手段。中国故事的传播,是一种融通中外的“国家对话”。根据批评话语分析理论,话语具有社会实践性,话语携带价值观念和思想意识,能够在潜移默化中影响受众。中国故事的叙事修辞策略必须重视故事叙事的交互性、主体间性、话语间性和“后真相时代”的话语特点。
