Study on the Epistemology Development of the Correlation between Human Beings and Nature

This study aimed to alert people that the harmony between human beings and nature has already become an urgent problem. All people are responsible for maintaining the harmony, which is the also the inexorable trend of historical development. Reviewing the evolution history of human kind, the relationship between human beings and nature from harmony to imbalance, from imbalance to a new harmony was analyzed from the macro perspective, and it was pointed out that the present society is in the transitional phase from imbalance to a new harmony and also a phase that people are consciously coordinating their relationship with nature. It was found through the study that a harmonious society relies on the harmony between human beings and nature, and the latter is a necessary condition for a real harmonious society, however, people always forget such a principle. The imbalanced relationship between human beings and nature has seriously influenced many aspects of social harmony, and become instable factors in China and international society, even threatened the development and survival of human beings. Thus, all people should make joint efforts in creating win-win conditions for the development between human beings and nature, and ensuring offspring a healthy and green earth.

Comparison and Inspiration of the Theme of Relationship between Human Beings and Nature in the Field of Literature between China and the West

Literature can spy on the nature exploration of human society and ideological values in the thinking and behavior patterns,expressing the relationship between human beings and nature. Through expressions of literature in China and the West,we draw lessons from W estern literary expressions in the developing relationship between man and nature,and get inspiration for the development of Chinese literature.

The Relationship between Nature and Human Beings in Wide Sargasso Sea

Famous for giving voice to Bertha, the marginalized mad woman in the attic in Jane Eyre, Wide Sargasso Sea is filled with vivid description of nature, which contributes to the successful characterization of main characters and shows the theme of the relationship between nature and human beings. However few attention is paid to that theme. The mythological and archetypal approach is thus adopted to analyze three major characters and fill the gap. Antoinette is viewed as the daughter of nature. Christophine functions as the incarnation of nature. Rochester plays the role of the intruder who does harm to nature. To conclude, Wide Sargasso Sea is not only a criticism of anthropocentrism but also a warning bell to the stereotyped opposition in the western culture. After the successful shaking of the fixed order, Wide Sargasso Sea also drops a hint that there exists the hope to build a new world where human beings and nature, men and women keep a harmonious and balanced relationship.

Latent Challenges in the Human-Nature Relationship for Sustainable Design and Planning

In the global context, the relationship between human beings and nature has been discussed in various fields of study. This paper introduced three of the important challenges in this relationship, which have, thus far, been only partially or implicitly acknowledged in design and planning. The aim was to elucidate the key disregarded and neglected aspects in the human-nature relationship that need to be considered in different phases of the design and planning of future projects. This paper will thus inform the designers and planners about the previously overlooked but important challenges in the human-nature relationship, which must be moved to the foreground of the design and planning processes. These challenges include the definition of the term “nature”, the reciprocal effects among scales and adhering to or going beyond environmental sustainability. As the main conclusion, the paper shows how these challenges can improve the mutually supportive interaction between human beings and nature in the field of design and planning. Specifically speaking, the paper discussed how to convert the overlooked challenges in the human-nature relationship into potentials in the design and planning process. The main applied methods for this paper were a review of the related literature and the appropriate analysis.

Between the Heaven and Human Beings: On the Idea of the Heaven and the Transformation of Poetry in the Mid-Tang Dynasty

The relationship between the Heaven and human beings is a central issue in the transformation of Confucianism in the Mid-Tang Dynasty.The discourses on the Heaven by Han Yu,Liu Zongyuan,and Liu Yuxi helped to promote the transformation and greatly influenced the transformation in literature.The differences in the poetry among the three authors may also be interpreted from the perspective of their perceptions of the Heaven—Han Yu’s discourse on the Heaven focused on the enemy-relationship between the Heaven and human beings,so his poems always showed tension and loss.Liu Zongyuan was interested in the alienation between the heaven and human beings,so his poems were more rational and placid than Han Yu’s.However,Liu Yuxi’s discourse on the Heaven paid attention to the positive influence of the Heaven on human beings,and most of his poems were filled with reason.The changes in the relationship between the Heaven and human beings lead to the broadened themes,innovated vocabulary,diversified styles,and varied fresh imageries.Likewise,the relationship between the Heaven and human beings established in the Song Dynasty led accordingly to a new type of literature different from the Tang literature.

The Mentally Offset Human and the Society

A human being is a complex type of creature whose existence depends on three components;the spirit, the soul and the body which interact in a reversible manner. I do believe that there comes a time when there is lack of a reversible interaction between the soul and the spirit in certain individuals which leads to a state of mental offset. For humans to live in sociality the world is governed by humans’ laws but the mentally offset human do not live according to these laws. Due to this, they are considered as being useless in the society but I do believe that they have complete natural human rights and are not useless for they are aware of each act they perform. It is observed that the mentally offset human hardly acquire a disease from natural origin, I do believe that due to this lack of a reversible interaction between the soul and the spirit, the immune system is reprogrammed such that there is a lack of recognition of exogenous and endogenous pathological substances and there is no means of interaction between these substances and the body cells.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MAN AND NATURE IN TRADITIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS CONCEPTS OF CHINA AND WEST

On the Marxist Ecological View and the Modern Ecological Awareness

Faced with the serious environmental crisis,the Seventeenth Congress of the CPC put forward the scientific concept of "ecological civilization",and the Eighteenth Congress of the CPC attached great importance to the construction of ecological civilization,the strategic position of which was equaled to that of the economic construction,political development,cultural development,social construction. In order to deal with the more and more serious environmental problems,enhance the harmony and unity between human beings and nature and create ideal environmental conditions for various courses and tasks,the entire allocation of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics has been changed from "four in one"to "five in one",in which the ecological civilization becomes a new component. Consequently,it is worthwhile to intensively study and grasp the Marxist ecological view and form the self-awareness of environmental protection to carry forward the ecological civilization construction of China.

基于栅格尺度的黄河流域人地关系时空耦合分析

黄河流域作为中国人口与产业集聚区,其水资源短缺、生态退化、环境污染等问题严重,研究该区域的人地关系对于推进生态保护和高质量发展国家战略具有重要意义。然而面向国土空间规划、生态环境网格化治理等现实需求,目前黄河流域人地关系还缺乏精细栅格尺度研究。使用人类足迹(HF)和生态系统质量指数(EQI)作为人地系统的代理变量,基于Sen+MK趋势检验识别了2000—2020年1km×1km栅格尺度下黄河流域人类活动和生态系统质量时空演化特征,运用四象限图解法量化了两者协调与冲突关系,基于多种回归模型解析了黄河流域人类活动对生态系统质量的影响程度和时空异质性。结果表明,2000—2020年黄河流域EQI和HF整体均呈上升趋势,其中显著上升区域前者占比64.2%,后者占比49.2%。黄河流域人地关系整体呈现协调演化态势,人地协调演化区主要分布在黄土高原、太行山西麓和宁夏沿黄等地区;人地冲突区域仅占7.7%,主要分布在城镇化快速推进地区和上游生态脆弱区。在控制了气温、降水、日照、海拔等自然因子后,HF对EQI仍有显著负向影响,整体看HF每增加1%,EQI将下降0.067%。但这种影响存在时空异质性,人类活动对黄河流域中下游EQI的负向影响更加显著,20年间整个流域的HF对EQI的负向影响呈现缓慢增加态势。为栅格尺度的人地关系研究提供了新的方法论,研究结果为黄河流域人与自然和谐共生的政策制定提供决策支持。

“贫乏于世”的深意——论海德格尔“动物之思”的起源及其意义

海德格尔的《形而上学的基本概念》并非海德格尔“动物之思”的真正起源,既有国内外研究并未深究这一问题,而且都遗漏了对一部重要作品的考察,此即《康德〈纯粹理性批判〉的现象学阐释》。通过对此书的文本分析,我们可以看清,海德格尔“动物之思”的起源、海德格尔特有的“自由”概念的启动以及海德格尔“康德阐释”的正式开端,三者共同交织于此书中。海德格尔“动物贫乏于世界”命题的深意因而在于:我们可以从这一命题重新思考海德格尔思想的一段关键历程,即海德格尔思想“转向”的开端进程。就此而论,海德格尔的“动物之思”绝非只是海德格尔思想的副产品,而应视为海德格尔思想道路上的一种至深至远的本真之思。

马克思人的本质思想及其对人的现代化的启示

马克思人的本质思想是马克思主义的重要理论基础。这一思想是马克思在欧洲无产阶级反抗资产阶级革命运动和各种共产主义思潮蓬勃兴起的背景下为科学阐释共产主义思想而逐步形成的。马克思把人的本质确立为全面性和自由性的统一,其中的全面性包括全体人的共同发展、个体人的普遍本质,以及观念的总体性和个体人的全面关系等;而自由性包括人的物质生产活动的自由、人的个性才能发挥的自由和职业生活选择的自由。从马克思人的本质思想角度看,西方资本主义现代化的核心是资本的现代化,其结果必然导致人的异化。中国式现代化的核心是人的现代化,这与马克思人的本质思想一脉相承。马克思人的本质思想对当代人的现代化发展具有重要指导意义。

“天命之性”的现代解读——兼及戴震对朱子的辩驳

天命之性是程朱理学核心概念之一。意思是,人的存在即性,与生俱来。性有二重,一曰气质之性,一曰天命之性,天命之性即理。按现代观念,人的社会存在是其一切社会关系之总和。每个人一出生即落入某些社会关系之中。说社会存在与生俱来,或许成立。但是,朱子所说的天命之性,指的是天理(仁义礼智),落在人身,实为文化存在。此学说的涵义是:人生来就是高贵的,具备尊严。这为现代人人平等的观念奠定了基础。但仁义礼智是否与生俱来,却是个要研讨的问题。本文的解决思路是:将“天命之性”之“天”解读为意义世界,即属于第三世界;而将“天命”解读为来源于意义世界,因其并非与生俱来,而是在成长过程中得其教化。于是,工夫论要作调整,由朱子的复性论改变为充实完满论。自我,即本己存在。自我建构不仅有文化存在维度,还有社会存在维度。社会存在维度可以设计;文化存在维度目的唯一,即朱子所论。戴震深刻剖析了朱子的天命之性,恢复天命之性乃是气禀(血气心知)的古代学说,否定性即理,解构理义、气质二本,破性本善,开启了现代解读之路。
