对欧洲文化的认识

L.Kroeber A?克鲁伯和C?克拉克霍恩撰写的《评文化的概念和定义》 (1952年) and C. Kluckhohn: Culture: A Critical Review of Concepts and Definitions, Cambridge, Papers of the Peabody Museum of American Archeology and Ethnology, Harvard University, Vol., XLVII - No. 1, 1952, pp. 41-79. )一书中看到,1871~1951年期间出现了164种关于文化的定义。我还在I?贾米森撰写的《资本主义与文化:英、美制造业企业的比较分析》(1980年)(Ian Jamieson:Capitalism and Culture: A Comparative Analysis of British and American Manufacturing Organizations, Gower, 1980, p. 9. )一书中看到,被人类学家、社会学家、心理学家和其他领域的学者使用的定义,也有160种之多。你们在研究欧洲文化时,究竟是如何定义文化的? 邝杨:文化的概念应从两个角度看。从一般的学科角度看,特别是社会学,文化主要体现为价值观、规范、认同以及符号体系。从历史的角度看,应特别注意到文化是一个被使用的概念,含义有变化。从英语词源学上看,文化起初有“培育、培养”之意,后来,在浪漫主义时期,又着重指精神层面的发展,再到后来,文化概念又包含了传统、生活方式的含义。因此,文化概念从历史角度来说不

欧洲文化之哥特式建筑 欧洲文化博大精深历史悠久,无论是其人文艺术方面的发展还是其自然科学的严谨都吸引了广大的研究者和历史文化爱好者,经过本学期老师对欧州文化的讲解,我对本来就很感兴趣的欧洲建筑有了更深的了解和认识,下面我从其起源、建筑特点以及对现代建筑的影响简述下我眼中的欧洲建筑的代表——哥特式建筑。 哥特式建筑是中世纪下半叶起源于法国13——15世纪流行于欧洲的一种建筑风格。主要见于天主教堂也影响到世俗建筑。哥特式建筑以其超高的技术和艺术成就,在建筑史上占有重要是地位。 其特点主要是尖塔高耸,尖形拱门,大窗户及绘有圣经故事的花窗玻璃.营造出轻盈修长的飞天的感觉.以及新的框架结构以增加支撑顶部的力量.使整个建筑以直线线条,宏伟的外观和教堂内空阔的空间, 再结合镶着彩色玻璃的长窗,使教堂里产生一种浓厚的宗教气氛.教堂的平面仍是基本的拉丁十字型,但是其西端门的两侧增加一对高塔。 哥特式建筑结构也十分多样,主要有尖肋拱顶,飞扶壁,花窗玻璃等,下面就各国建筑代表为例来介绍哥特式结构在建筑上的体现。 意大利的哥特式建筑于十二世纪由国外传入,主要影响于北部地区.意大利没有真正接受哥特式建筑的结构体系和造型原型,只是把它当做是一种装饰风格,所以在意大利很难找到纯粹的哥特式建筑.威尼斯的世俗建筑有很多的杰作,圣马可广场上的总督宫被认为是中世纪的世俗建筑中最美丽的作品之一,成为广场的标志.城市里一般

建有许多高塔,总体轮廓线很美. 德国最早的哥特式教堂之一的科隆主教堂于1248年兴工,由建造过亚眠主教堂的法国人设计,有法国盛行的哥特式建筑的风格. 德国的教堂很早就形成了自己的形制和风格,如德国的马尔堡的圣伊莉莎白教堂的建筑结构体现了德国教堂建筑的最早特点:屋顶平缓,陡坡屋面罩在拱顶上,高度相等的教堂中厅和侧厅,教堂内部采光是依靠端体墙上高窄普通的窗户,全然去除尖顶、高侧窗、飞扶壁等等之类的样式,可谓一大创新。 以挺拔、动感、飞扬而著称的哥特式建筑艺术,在欧洲各地流行了近四个世纪之久,虽然走向了落寞,并曾经一度被文艺复兴时期的的艺术家们评为是野蛮的象征,但哥特式建筑艺术给欧洲各国带来的巨大影响却是不容忽视的,那一座座哥特式教堂以及具有哥特式风格的绘画和雕塑便是最好的证明。 综上所述,探讨哥特式建筑建筑艺术不仅仅是对建筑,建筑艺术的研究,更有助于我们了解其背后的宗教,历史,人文背景。对于我们更好的解读中世纪那段特殊的历史进程有着极其深远的意义。 由于哥特式建筑艺术本身就是西方文明的产物,存在语言方面的差距,再加上所学知识有限使得本文得出的结论具有局限性对于所取得的成就认识也较肤浅。更深层次的探讨和论证还有待继续深入的研究,我会在今后的学习中继续关注哥特式建筑艺术。

端午节的简介 端午节为每年农历五月初五,又称端阳节、午日节、五月节、五日节、艾节、端五、重午、午日、夏节,本来是夏季的一个驱除瘟疫的节日。端午节是我国汉族人民的传统节日,这一天必不可少的活动逐渐演变为吃粽子,赛龙舟,挂菖蒲`蒿草、艾叶,薰苍术、白芷,喝雄黄酒。据说,吃粽子和赛龙舟,是为了纪念屈原,所以解放后曾把端午节定名为“诗人节”,以纪念屈原。至于挂菖蒲、艾叶,薰苍术、白芷,喝雄黄酒,则据说是为了避邪。“中国端午节”为国家法定节假日之一,并列入世界非物质文化遗产名录。历代有大量诗、词、歌、赋等文学作品传世。 端午节的来历: 邹平县端午,每人早起均需饮酒一杯,传说可以避邪。日照端午给儿童缠七色线,一直要戴到节后第一次下雨才解下来扔在雨水里。临清县端午,七岁以下的男孩带符(麦稓做的项链),女孩带石榴花,还要穿上母亲亲手做的黄布鞋,鞋面上用毛笔画上五种毒虫。意思是借着屈原的墨迹来杀死五种毒虫。即墨在端午节早晨用露水洗脸。 节日习俗; 吃粽子 “粽子香,香厨房。艾叶香,香满堂。桃枝插在大门上,出门一望麦儿黄。这儿端阳,那儿端阳,处处都端阳。”这是旧时流行甚广的一首描写过端午节的民谣。总体上说,各地人民过端午节的习俗大同小异,而端午节吃粽子,古往今来,中国各地都一样。 如今的粽子更是多种多样,璀璨纷呈。现今各地的粽子,一般都用箬壳包糯米,但内含的花色则根据各地特产和风俗而定,著名的有桂圆粽、肉粽、水晶粽、莲蓉粽、蜜饯粽、板栗粽、辣粽、酸菜粽、火腿粽、咸蛋粽等等 据记载,早在春秋时期,用菰叶(茭白叶)包黍米成牛角状,称“角黍”;用竹筒装米密封烤熟,称“筒粽”。东汉末年,以草木灰水浸泡黍米,因水中含碱,用菰叶包黍米成四角形,煮熟,成为广东碱水粽。 晋代,粽子被正式定为端午节食品。这时,包粽子的原料除糯米外,还添加中药益智仁,煮熟的粽子称“益智粽”。时人周处《岳阳风土记》记载:“俗以菰叶裹黍米,……煮之,合烂熟,于五月五日至夏至啖之,一名粽,一名黍。”南北朝时期,出现杂粽。米中掺杂禽兽肉、板栗、红枣、赤豆等,品种增多。粽子还用作交往的礼品。 到了唐代,粽子的用米,已“白莹如玉”,其形状出现锥形、菱形。日本文献中就记载有“大唐粽子”。宋朝时,已有“蜜饯粽”,即果品入粽。诗人苏东坡有“时于粽里见杨梅”的诗句。这时还出现用粽子堆成楼台亭阁、木车牛马作的广告,说明宋代吃粽子已很时尚。元、明时期,粽子的包裹料已从菰叶变革为箬叶,后来又出现用芦苇叶包的粽子,附加料已出现豆沙、猪肉、松子仁、枣子、胡桃等等,品种更加丰富多彩。

古希腊是欧洲文化的发源地

古希腊是欧洲文化的发源地。古代希腊人在科学、哲学、文学、艺术上都创造了辉煌的成就,对欧洲文化的发展产生了深远的影响。 古希腊艺术的形成、发展与其社会历史、民族特点、自然条件有着密切的关系。城邦国家的奴隶主民主政体为文化艺术的发展提供了有利的条件,城邦国家要求公民具有健壮的体格和完美的心灵,这也成为艺术创造的理想形象。贸易和航海业的发展造就了希腊人的坚强意志、机智灵活以及勇于追求理想的积极性格,也使希腊人得到接触两河、埃及等地区文化的机会。希腊神话是希腊艺术的土壤,希腊神话包含着人们对自然奥秘的理性思索,它蕴育着历史和哲学观念的萌芽。希腊神话中“神人同形同性”的特点使神祇具有人的面貌和情感,成为促使艺术与生活息息相通的有利因素。温和的希腊气候使希腊人有广阔的露天活动和运动的场所。四年一度的奥林匹克运动会上,运动员裸体竞技为艺术家提供了塑造健美人体的条件,使他们对于人体美有较早的领悟和表现。希腊艺术家正是在这种环境下创造出古代世界最杰出的艺术,给人类宝库留下了最珍贵的遗产。 古代希腊文化是现代欧美文化的重要渊源,它不仅反映在建筑、雕塑等有形迹可循的那些领域,尤其深刻地反映在宗教、哲学、诗歌、戏剧等意识形态领域。爱琴文明是希腊文明的发祥期,其总体特征(或曰类型)近似于同时期的古西亚、埃及的宫殿文化。希腊语文化勃兴于古风时代。随着城邦的繁荣、大殖民运动的拓展,进入公元前7—前6世纪,各种文化门类、职业逐渐形成,到公元前5—前4世纪古典时代达到鼎盛。 古希腊美术的地理范围以爱琴海为中心,因此也被视为爱琴美术的延续。雪莱曾在诗中吟道:“我们都是希腊人。”希腊是欧洲文明的发源地和摇篮,没有希腊,无法想像欧洲文明会是什么样子,今日西方世界无处不遗存着希腊文明的传统。可是除了居住在希腊半岛上的公民自认为希腊人外,很少有人像雪莱那样以哲理的想像认为自己是希腊人。那么究竟谁是希腊人呢?历史表明,克里特的征服者、特洛伊城的毁灭者——迈锡尼人,是希腊最早的居民之一。后来沦为北方蛮族的奴隶,并逐渐分流为多立克人和爱奥尼亚人,他们都有共同的信仰和语言,所以称他们为希腊人。“希腊”一词意为典雅、优美。后来创造出许多雕刻艺术杰作的希腊人正与这典雅、优美之名相称,可谓名副其实。 希腊三面临海,北面连接欧洲大陆。境内多天然良港,可以经过地中海通向世界各地,为航海和对外贸易提供了极为有利的自然环境,内陆多山,土地贫瘠,但是盛产大理石,为雕刻艺术提供了极方便的物质材料。到了公元前12世纪,爱琴海文明受到北方蛮族入侵的严重破坏。但不屈的希腊人在这块曾经有过丰厚文明的废墟上重新建立了灿烂的希腊文明,成为欧洲文明的真正始祖。进入奴隶社会的希腊半岛,建立了200多个奴隶制城邦国家,每一城邦以城市为中心连同城郊农村组成大小不等的国家,各自为政。其中最强大的是雅典和斯巴达。由于国穷民贫,为了生存和发展,各城邦国家之间不断发生战争,弱肉强食,为了保存自己,掠夺财富,城邦国家实行强国强兵政策,在城邦内部实行民主政治,自由民直接参与城邦治理,十分重视民族体格素质的锻炼,所以管理国家、锻炼身体是每个公民的神圣职责。 希腊本土气候宜人,阳光充足,温度适中,在这样的自然条件下适宜于户外裸体锻炼和比赛。由于裸体运动,改变了人们的观念,不以露体为耻,反以健美身体为荣光,这引起美学家们的关注和艺术家的表现,美学家们发现人体美,艺术家们创造美的人体。大政治家伯里克利斯说:“我们是爱美的人。”希腊民族是爱美、创造美的民族。希腊人在民主自由和激烈竞争的环境中不仅发现、孕育和创造了美,而且也创造了神,在希腊人的心目中最完美的人就是神,因此希腊人尊重人,把人提高到神的高度加以肯定,神和人是同形同性,希腊人把强健的身体看成是一切善与美的本原,而把希腊神话视为艺术的精神本源,正如马克斯所指出的:“希腊神话不仅是希腊艺术的武库,而且是它的土壤”。所以希腊艺术主要成就表现在神与人合一的雕刻和神庙建筑。希腊美术的主要特点是无所不包的和谐与规律性,还有庄严与静穆。它的主要标志是人体美,希腊人为人类贡献了高不可及的艺术典范之作。
