Even a rapid comparison indicates Marx says different things at different times.The emphasis shifts from,say,an initial view of freedom based on a quasi-Hegelian view of radical equality and even love to freedom beyond the division of labor,then later a very different view of freedom based on a shorter working day,and so on.展开更多

However, there is something noteworthy in ancient Chinese intellectuals' thoughts for that they were also concerned with language phenomena while dealing with philosophy issues. As an outstanding representative of Confucian school, Xunzi had discussed the social essence of language, the relationship between language, world and people, and the development of language, etc. in his Zhengming, which possesses an enlightening significance on nowadays study of linguistics among Chinese scholars. Based on an overview of this classic works, this paper was intended to explore the linguistic view of Xunzi from two perspectives: the relationship between "ming" and "shi" (name and nature), and that between language and human thought. His awareness of language cognition was touched upon as well.展开更多

In 1820, Cooper publishes his first novel, from then on he publishes over 50 novels altogether. The characters we are talking about are from one of his best known novels"The Last of the Mohicans",the second part of The Leatherstocking Tales which is his most famous and influencing novel. Through the novel, the author believes that the process of the early American movement towards the west is actually a process of massacre of American Indians.The article points out that James Fenimore Cooper has sympathy with American Indians, but at the same time showing his ambiguities on many issues.展开更多

She is called the"human bridge"for the communication between China and the world outside. She won the Nobel Prize for her rich and genuine description of Chinese peasant life and masterpiece of biography. Being a woman writer, she expressed her great concern to women's life, which could be seen from her famous works. Owing to the special experience in bilingual culture and the assertion of the equality of any cultures in the world, she was a woman with double cultural view: both of Western and Chinese, which must have decided the formation of her feminist views with the Western and Chinese culture basis. In this thesis, her unique feminist views will be illustrated in detail.展开更多
