Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature and logical reasoning, the study reveals how cat meme, as a core element of contemporary youth subculture, circulates and accumulates social capital in online communities by virtue of its unique social values, such as its sense of humour and empathy, and thus contributes to the confirmation of individual identity and the formation of group cohesion. The study traces in detail the complete chain of cat meme from original generation to widespread dissemination, including its initial trigger point in the social network, the dynamic mechanism of user interaction in the dissemination chain, as well as how imitation and secondary creation accelerated its diffusion process. Meanwhile, it also examines in depth the law of value increase and decrease of cat meme as a social currency in the dissemination cycle, and discusses the profound impact of cat meme culture on the values, social behavioural norms, and even the mainstream ideology of the youth group, as well as its complex interactive relationship.展开更多

Due to their reproducibility, social interaction, and involvement, these rustic videos adhere to the fundamental logic of the propagation of online memes. Rustic videos are widely disseminated as online memes on TikTok (the Chinese version), are often reproduced and used by young people in social contact, and have become a unique linguistic symbol in modern internet culture. As a symbolic carrier that transports the consciousness of the video creator and viewer, it is widely employed in the communication and engagement of young people on a regular basis, progressively altering their linguistic expression. This specific semiotic interaction has deconstructed and recreated the conventional media culture spectacle. This research examines the influence of rustic videos on TikTok on the linguistic expressions of modern youth from the perspectives of meme theory and semiotics, as well as the impact of rustic videos on the media spectacle from the standpoint of media spectacle theory. It also examines in depth the effects of the popularity of rustic videos on China’s economy and culture.展开更多

Thus, some linguists are engaged in perfecting the linguistic theories from the completely new aspect based on the new interface -- meme. This paper has briefly introduced the preliminary achievements in the memetics research. In terms of the memetics it gives a new analysis on the prototype theory, one of the important theories in the cognitive linguistics, and explores that meme is the cognitive root of the prototype theory. Besides, employing the memetics the paper has explained the cognitive characteristics of the prototype theory. The authors hold the prototype is one kind of memes, while the non-prototype or peripheral member of this prototype is the memetine of this meme.展开更多

Memes, coined to disclose a strong analogy with genes, are ideas that spread through human cultures and across the generation. As cultural replicators, memes are propagated and transmitted through imitation; language, as part of culture, produces under the influence of memes. This paper discusses the relationship between language and culture and that between language and memes. In addition, the classification of linguistic memes and the survival law residing in the memes are also expounded.

At present, the theory of philosophy and psychology is to investigate the entity of abnormal behavior based on the views of memetics. METHODS： Abnormal behavior was researched in this study based on three aspects, including instinctive behavior disorder, poorly social-adapted behavior disorder and mental or body disease associated behavior disorder. Most main viewpoints of memetics were derived from ＂The Meme Machine＂, which was written by Susan Blackmore. When questions about abnormal behaviors induced by mental and psychological diseases and conduct disorder of teenagers were discussed, some researching achievements which were summarized by authors previously were added in this study, such as aggressive behaviors, pathologically aggressive behaviors, etc. RESULTS： The abnormal behaviors mainly referred to a part of people＇s substandard behaviors which were not according with the realistic social environment, culture background and the pathologic behaviors resulted from people＇s various psychological diseases. According to the theory of ＂meme＂, it demonstrated that the relevant behavioral obstacles of various psychological diseases, for example, the unusual behavior of schizophrenia, were caused, because the old meme was destroyed thoroughly but the new meme was unable to establish; psychoneurosis and personality disorder were resulted in hard establishment of meme; the behavioral obstacles which were ill-adapted to society, for example, various additional and homosexual behaviors, were because of the selfish replications and imitations of ＂additional meme＂ and ＂homosexual meme＂; various instinct behavioral and congenital intelligent obstacles were not significance for memetics. CONCLUSION： Generation of abnormal behavior is not only caused by complexly biological factors, also by philosophical and psychological entities.展开更多

The secret for the pedagogy of performing another culture to be successful lies in integrating with the theoretical knowledge in other disciplines and fields and promoting the development of the second language pedagogy to a broader space. In this process,the"meme theory"in the field of biology is a theoretical method absorbed and very outstandingly implemented by the pedagogy of performing another culture,so it is worth borrowing and introducing and also is of great significance in language acquisition.展开更多
