Comparative Study on Chinese and Western Life Values in the Context of Epidemic

Life values are people’s understanding and view on life.After the COVID-19 outbreak,China quickly adopted policies such as lockdown to control the epidemic,while the west could not adopt.One of the important reasons is that Chinese and western life values are different.Through the comparative analysis on Chinese and western life values,it is found that Chinese traditional life values emphasize collective consciousness,while the west pays attention to individual value.Chinese traditional life values avoid death,while the west faces death directly.China emphasizes the present world,while the west pays attention to introspection.There are also similarities between Chinese and western life values.They both emphasize the realization of life values,desire to surpass life,and regard physical life as a natural process.The main reasons for their differences are different economic bases,different cultural influences,and different religious ideas.Therefore,the comparative analysis of Chinese and western life values has theoretical and practical value.

The Comparison of Chinese and Western Cultures from the Perspective of Chinese Culture “Going Global”: With Confucius and Socrates’ Thoughts as Examples

Chinese culture “going global” is an inevitable requirement for China’s economic and social development.As an important part of Chinese traditional culture,the dissemination of Confucian thought is just the spread of Chinese culture.Therefore,the spread of Chinese Confucian thought abroad is also the key to Chinese culture “going global”.However,there are some cultural hinders between China and the West due to the differences in cultures.On the basis of summarizing Confucius and Socrates’ thoughts,this paper analyzes their essence of thoughts by contrast,which represent the eastern and Western cultures respectively.From the perspective of cross-cultural communication,the paper adopts the methods of multiculturalism,criticism and down-to-earth attitudes to deal with Chinese and Western cultures in order to make Chinese go global and share China’s wisdom with the world.

A Comparison between Chinese and Western Culture

Different countries have different cultures. Understanding the differences between Chinese and western culture will help us to communicate with each other better. From three aspects, this paper mainly compares the differences between Chinese and western culture.

A comparison of tectonic ambient shear stress value in China with that in western USA

A method is proposed to estimate average tectonic ambient shear stress value for a region. Thus the average stress values of 19 regions in western USA, and 43 regions (each region is 1010) in Chinese mainland and its surroundings have been obtained. The data of 15 993 earthquakes are from the Internet Centroid Moment Tensor solution made by Harvard University from 1997 to 1999. The results demonstrate that there are highest average stress values in the regions of south California of USA and its off coast sea, reach to 12.0 MPa and 13.7 MPa respectively, then gradually decrease toward north, south, and east. The lowest value is 8.7 MPa and 63% of highest value. The average stress values in northern Xinjiang and in the Chayu region of Tibet are 17.2 and 12.9 MPa respectively. They are highest values in China and higher than USAs. The average stress value in North China, Yunnan, Sichuan, Taiwan is similar to south California of USA. The average stress value in South-North seismic zone is about 13 MPa, a little higher than south California. The distribution of average stress value for two important regions provides basic data for geology. These results are useful to research earthquake activity background and attenuation relation of strong ground motion parameters (e.g. peak acceleration and response spectra).

Differences Between Chinese and Western Cultures Perceived in Wedding Customs

The marriage customs and rites of wedding ceremony are different from country to country. By analyzing the differences of wedding ceremony between Chinese and Westerners, a conclusion will be made: different wedding customs reflect the differences between the Chinese culture and the western culture and different attitudes towards value and marriage of the Chinese and the western people. This paper aims at making the Chinese and the western people understand each other's culture and values well.

中国式现代化的独特文明观对西方文明观的批判与超越

中国式现代化所蕴含的独特文明观及其发展实践,形成了对西方文明观的有力批判和全面超越。西方文明观基于“文明—野蛮”“传统—现代”“民主—威权”“中心—边缘”等二元对立叙事逻辑在不同时期呈现多重面相,这些面相下隐藏着二元对立服务于一元倾向、真理原则臣服于价值原则、道义主张屈从于利益诉求的实质性局限。中国式现代化坚持发展全过程人民民主,揭穿了“西方化即民主化”的假象;坚持文明多样性,以平等、互鉴、对话、包容超越“文明冲突论”和“文明优越论”;坚持贯通古今、融通中外,以系统观念超越线性思维;推动构建人类命运共同体,以“世界同心圆”超越“西方中心论”。

基于审美分析的口腔美容修复分类诊疗方案(二):中式审美的内涵与分析方案

欧美国家提出的口腔美感指标(简称欧美审美)与我国口腔美感指标(简称中式审美)存在差异,这些不同在正式修复方案的设计与修复效果评价中对医—患—技三方存在或大或小的影响,处理不当将直接弱化三方的合作效能、拉低患者的满意度,严重时甚至可导致医疗纠纷。本文从做好我国口腔美容修复出发,介绍了口腔中式审美的内涵特征,讨论了口腔审美分析的诊疗价值,并进一步详细介绍了采用改良中式牙科审美社会心理影响量表、口腔美容修复期望值评估尺等进行审美分析评估的流程和方案。

从三对概念比较王士神韵说与康德的判断力演绎

在中西比较的领域中,两者对于文艺美学的认知与哲思一直是比较的热点。当前学界对于17-18世纪中西诗学的比较研究较少,该文选取了中西两名代表人物王士禛与康德,对他们的神韵说与审美判断力进行比较研究,重点分析了兴会与情感、言不尽意与审美理念、神韵天然与像自然的艺术三对概念,展示了三对概念在艺术与情感、语言的不完善性、自然美学方面存在的共性,与其在理论基调、审美路径与审美取向三个方向存在的差异,在展现中西文论各自特色的同时,找寻人类艺术普遍的规律。

铸牢中华民族共同体意识视域下中国西部电影可持续发展的演化逻辑与路径选择

新时代以来,历经“树立”到“铸牢”的成功演化,中华民族共同体意识已成为各民族交往交流交融的重要思想路线和行动指南,尤其是中华文化认同、文化自觉与文化自信的过程性建构和自觉式提升成效显著。而作为中华文化的重要组成部分,集西部自然地理、人文风情和精神气韵于一体的中国西部电影,却在新时代被动陷入本位塑型与他位阐释的认同焦虑困境,如何打破传统认知、创作壁垒、文化限定等既有束缚,在文化认同进程中运用中华民族共同体意识拓展创作空间,并借由视听手段讲好中国故事、坚守文化立场、传递时代强音,积极探索大众接受、市场认可、民族认同的可持续发展路径,是当前西部电影亟需履行与完成的历史使命与时代重任。

深入理解价值观教育的中国特色和国际比较

价值观教育作为维系国家存续、制度运行和文化传承的重要方式,既具有鲜明的民族国家特质,也具有共通性的本质和规律。立足新时代新征程加强和改进价值观教育,应深入理解价值观教育的中国特色和国际比较,在历史和现实、中国和世界的多维视野中打开价值观教育新局面。为此,应深入研究时代变革对价值观念领域的复杂影响,自觉彰显价值观教育的中国特色及其独特优势;把价值观教育的国际比较与21世纪世界价值观教育发展相联系,洞察把握不同价值观念交流交融交锋的特点和规律;把价值观教育的中国特色、国际比较与中华文化繁荣发展、民族复兴后继有人相联系,以增强文化自觉和文化自信为根基,探索拓展富有中国特色、世界眼光、时代特征的价值观教育发展之路。

中西哲学互镜下的人性论探赜

相对于中国哲学对人性或善或恶的笼统界定,西方哲学首先对人的灵魂进行理性、欲望、情感的划分,然后对善恶进行辨析。中国哲学敏锐地觉察到道德对于人性的重要性,但却没有如西方哲学那样将道德与理性的关系予以厘清。道德与理性成为中西人性论的根本区别。就人性本身而言,人的本质是理性,而道德是理性的彰显,两者是内在统一的关系。对中西人性论的比较有助于推进中国传统文化的创造性转化和创新性发展,也有助于我们正确认识和客观评价西方文化。

日本茶道精神建构特点解析

日本茶道是在对中国茶道及西方文化价值观念本土化过程中逐渐形成的独具特色的综合性生活文化。中国不仅是茶树的原产地,也是茶道文化的发祥地。日本囿于位居文化下游的物质和精神缺憾,在其茶道文化规范和精神建构过程中,秉持着“混淆和汉边际”的方针,对中国茶道理念等进行了扬弃。20世纪以来,日本茶人又抱着一种强烈的本自具足的心态,发掘日本茶道中所具有的“民主”“平等”“自由”理念,刻意强化了与西方文化价值观念的同一性。日本茶道是时代发展的产物。日本茶道精神与时俱进的建构,既体现了日本吸收外来文化的一些规律性特点,也凸显了日本国民性的一些典型特征。

书籍设计中的中西美学比较

研究中西方设计美学的差异,分析两种美学对设计产生的影响。以书籍设计为案例分析不同文化背景和审美观念对于设计的引导作用,并从设计原则和艺术表现手法的角度,对中西方设计美学的交流与融合发展提出了创新思路。

法律价值渊源的人性审视

人性假设是关于人及其本质的基本看法。中国传统文化中的先秦诸子学说、西方基督教思想以及近现代思想家等,都对人性问题进行了阐释和论证。法律属于一种规范人之行为的规章制度,对于人性的窥探与研究,实乃法学的题中应有之义。中西法律文化传统对人性议题具有共同的理论旨趣,推导出类似的法律制度生成的理论逻辑,而中西人性预设的差异性则导致了不同的法律制度构架和法律文化特点。对人性的诸般言说,其真正的意义并非对人性之善恶有所定论,而在于发现人性作为价值维度在法律创制、实践过程中的解释力量。人性不仅是法律产生的推动力,同时也是法律得以发展、存续的价值根基。

不可译性的哲学价值及其在中西译学中的差异探究

可译性与不可译性问题是翻译学的本源性问题,也是翻译研究领域中争论不休的一个理论问题。论文对不可译性的产生历程、不可译性的正面译学价值以及不可译性在中西译学中的差异这三个问题展开探讨。首先梳理了中西译学中不可译性的产生历程,然后指出不可译性既具有实践性的一面,也具有理论性的一面,分析了不可译性在译学中形而下和形而上的价值,最后分析了不可译性在中西译学中的四点差异:来源差异、界定差异、分类差异以及认知差异。
