Protection measures of traditional culture
The protection measures of China's traditional culture mainly include:
(1) Distinguishing the advantages and disadvantages of China's traditional culture is conducive to the pace of social progress.
Excellence: people-oriented thinking. There is a saying in Shang and Zhou Dynasties that "the people only care about the country, and the country is better". Xunzi said, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. In the spiritual realm, Mencius said, "I am good at cultivating my lofty spirit", and Du Fu said, "I will be in the extreme, and all other mountains will look short under the sky. There are also "humble people refuse to forget to care about their country", the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and the friendship between villains is as good as ever, "Worry about the world first, and enjoy it later", "Who has never died in life since ancient times, who has left a heart to shine on history" and so on.
Inferiority: advocating conservatism, "the sky is changeable, the earth is changeable, and the laws of our ancestors remain unchanged." The pedantry of "turning a deaf ear to the things outside the window and reading only the books of sages", the oppression of the people by bureaucrats and nobles, and the oppression of the people seeking more material benefits through business or other means by "gentlemen care about Tao but not poverty". Suppress individuality, suppress free thought, hinder development, etc.
(2) Look at the problem with the eyes of the times and comparative viewpoints and methods.
"Being in a foreign land, I miss my relatives twice every festive season" and "thread in the hands of a loving mother, making clothes for wayward children" are lofty family ties. "Heaven is powerful, and gentlemen are constantly striving for self-improvement", and they are indomitable. The noble morality of "the benevolent loves others" Ma Yuan's Ma Ge wrapped his body, Huo Qubing's "Why should the Huns be at home before they are broken", Cao Cao's "Drinking is a song, life is geometric" and Wang Changling's "The bright moon of Qin Dynasty, the custom of Han Dynasty" all have great ambitions. "Where the petals have flowed like tears, the lonely birds sang their sorrows", "When people are idle, sweet-scented osmanthus falls, the moon is quiet and the mountains are empty", and the singing of harmony between man and nature is beyond the reach of western culture. These advantages of China's traditional culture will surely become an extremely valuable part of the world culture.
The traditional culture of China was formed in the long ancient history, and its background was feudal social civilization. Strictly speaking, western culture was gradually formed before the Renaissance, with capitalist civilization as the background. One is a civilization with a strong feudal color, and the other is a civilization with a strong capitalist color, which determines that China's traditional culture is bound to be backward and has weaknesses in many aspects, but it cannot be blindly excluded, depending on whether it can take its essence.
(3) Inheritance, reference and innovation, and active integration into the world culture are the only way for China's future cultural development.
Cultural construction must adhere to inheritance, absorption and innovation.
Mainly valuable things, reflecting the nature and laws of things, some noble qualities. But opposed to unlimited promotion. China's traditional culture was formed in a specific period, which inevitably has its limitations. Any exaggeration is wrong.
Over the years, some people have seen the value of Zhouyi, Analects of Confucius and Zen, which is a good thing. However, blind worship and flattering words have gone astray. Even some people, after seeing some setbacks in western civilization, in turn strongly advocated that western civilization has gone bankrupt and the revival of Confucian civilization is the general trend! Chinese civilization is to be revived, but it is not to revive Confucian culture, but to establish a scientific, democratic and lofty Chinese new culture with human dignity and value.
From the perspective of the whole world culture, the cultures of all nationalities in the world have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they should learn from each other in order to make common progress.
For individuals, we need to do:
1. has a certain cultural accumulation. 2. Clear the direction. That is, it conforms to the social development trend and the people-oriented and people-oriented values. Third, there must be a relaxed environment. To allow the existence and development of friction things, we should not treat new things as a scourge, but encourage different ideas and cultures to confront each other freely. Four. Courage and will. This requires the courage and will of the whole nation. The old culture is the driving force of social progress in the past, and the new society also needs the unremitting efforts of the new culture, respects the law of development of things, and will eventually win.
The traditional culture of China has a history of more than 360 years. Because we can't understand capitalism with an open mind for a long time, we have always been on the alert of capitalist civilization, and we can't take the initiative to learn those advanced achievements of western culture, thus damaging the modernization process of our national traditional culture. In recent ten years, there has been an upsurge of Chinese studies and some masters of Chinese studies have emerged. But the author found that some people just talk about Chinese studies, and they have gone astray. Today, when we talk about Chinese studies, we should study them from the cultural background of the whole world. To learn Chinese studies, we must understand the development trend of modern society. Only in this way can he really draw a more comprehensive, mature and pertinent conclusion by studying Chinese studies.
Both internal and external cultivation of traditional culture
Traditional culture is the fruit of national culture and wisdom handed down by the Chinese nation for more than 5,000 years. It has been handed down from generation to generation with distinctive features, a long history and profound knowledge. Carrying out traditional culture education is not only conducive to the cultivation of national spirit, but also can promote the inheritance and development of Chinese civilization from generation to generation.
But as far as the present situation of traditional culture and education is concerned, the prospect is worrying. First, the content of traditional culture in students' teaching is decreasing, including classical Chinese reading and appreciation of ancient poems, which account for a smaller and smaller proportion in teaching materials. It is really shocking that there is a passage that comes out and says that ancient poems in textbooks should be deleted. Second, the traditional cultural education courses offered by social education and training institutions, although large in number, are mostly more in form than in content, and some of them have a strong religious color, which has little effect on the promotion and popularization of traditional cultural education; Third, people pay less and less attention to traditional culture education. Many parents have to give English lessons to their children in preschool, but they turn a blind eye to traditional culture. Many of our children can speak many English words and even have daily conversations in English. However, China's Chinese characters are getting worse and worse, and the shadow of traditional culture is getting weaker and weaker. Some children can't even be called "Four Great Classical Novels". A few years ago, when the singer CoCo Lee was very popular, she was a guest in Art Life. She told an interesting joke. When she saw the word "Manjianghong", she was deeply shocked, so she asked who wrote it. She was told that it was Yue Fei and cried excitedly, I also want Yue Fei to write lyrics for me. Regardless of her western education background, this innocent and fearless remark really makes us China people feel ashamed. How many of us are deeply studying traditional culture, and how many of us are trying to spread traditional culture? We are faced with a series of embarrassing figures.
Chinese civilization has a long history, with a history of 5,000 years shining like a star. We have such precious wealth, why not make full use of it? When children are full of Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving and ABCD foreign languages, do we feel that traditional culture is drifting away from us? Do we feel that the cultural symbols that have penetrated into our blood have been cruelly stripped off, and the once familiar famous sayings and philosophical stories have become strange? The cultural isolation of a country and a nation is the greatest destruction. Many foreign invasions in history, the first thing to do is to change the language and cultural background here. I remember when I was studying "The Last Lesson of Dude" a long time ago, what impressed me the most was that Mr. Hamel gave little France the last lesson and wrote a big "Long live France" in French on the blackboard. His image in little Franz's heart suddenly became much taller. I think this is the confidence and courage that the power of culture conveys to children. This kind of power is precious and hard to buy, so we should cherish it more. Therefore, we have such good cultural resources and so much ideological wealth, so there is no reason not to study and pass it on. If the traditional power of Chinese civilization is weakened or lost in our hands, we will always be nailed to the shame column of history.
So, how to strengthen the education of traditional culture? I think we should study both inside and outside. Self-cultivation means improving ideological understanding, truly understanding and understanding the significance and value of traditional culture, and fundamentally strengthening the confidence in learning and inheriting traditional culture. At the same time, to put our thoughts into action, we should not only learn from our thoughts, but also learn from our actions, speak with words and walk with our legs, so that the rich cultural nourishment of traditional culture can penetrate into our hearts. Repair is to improve the system and strengthen measures. First of all, we must ensure the proportion of teaching materials and courses, put traditional culture teaching in a certain position, incorporate it into compulsory subjects, and do not change it easily, so that children can feel the pressure of learning and have the motivation to learn. Secondly, we should use methods flexibly, and enhance the attraction, appeal and identity of traditional culture through colorful teaching methods and propaganda carriers, so that people can learn through enjoyment and improve through encouragement. Thirdly, we should strengthen social propaganda and training, so that traditional culture often appears in our field of vision and haunts our minds. Through effective communication and edification, more people will have profound literacy of traditional culture.
"If you don't learn, you won't learn." Traditional cultural education needs more people to pay attention to it and practice it seriously. Only by being so firm can we really open up a new world. I hope everyone will take action, learn from others, interrogate them well, think hard, distinguish right from wrong and stick to it, so as to effectively inherit and carry forward traditional culture.
