Some knowledge areas have clearly defined from the beginning，For example，European Economic History Experts study from the history of the industrial revolution to the First World War period。Other knowledge areas are at the intersection of multiple disciplines，Its research object、Methods and boundaries can only gradually explore formed。The religious anthropology research I engraved is this situation。I tried to cross the following two research areas: First, the ritual I followed，A group is the meaning of giving itself through the ceremony; the other is to compare the classics，Through reading various classic texts，Extract some thinking mode from it。These modes often affect how humans understand the world、The origin and fate of the world，They are also reflected in ritual activities。For example，When dancing or creating a text with special significance，Human use such as circles、square、Triangle and other graphics，The combination of these graphics actually expresses a thinking mode。I am in a study of "Huainanzi"，Discussion on the principle of "structural rhetoric"。In many aspects，Research on the intersection of "Li" and "Jing" is one of the efforts made by anthropology to interpret the mind。Current，This study shows three characteristics: distinctive Chinese characteristics、​​The rise of young scholars，and promote deeper dialogue between different civilizations。

Erving Goffman and Herbert Fingarette, etc.，and show the attention of the specific implementation method of the ceremony and how it helps us better understand the social structure and thinking structure。These scholars are aware of，The path of ritual research has a profound China root。Scholars in ancient Rome and ancient Greece also know how to reflect on the rituals of organizing collective life。For example，Syrlo's "On Divination" discusses the legality and effectiveness of the divination program。Similarly，The Bible tells about after 538 BC，The Jews after the exile of Babylon returned to Jerusalem to rebuild their homes，and provide a description of ritual specifications with reconstruction and reconstruction。

Comparison of comparison，Many texts of ancient China，Especially Confucian classic works，provided the systemic and reflection of the ceremony。One of the founders in the research field of ritual research, Catherine Bell, is a sinologist，This is not a coincidence。The thinker of the Warring States Period, Xunzi, believes，The invention of the ceremony makes humans go from barbaric to civilization，Only by obeying the correct etiquette can we ensure the normal operation of society。Xunzi attaches great importance to the form and practice of rituals，This is not a lonely example。In history，Confucianism as a ideological system and practical system，Given a very high status (ceremony)。Many thinkers emphasize，The ritual is an educational individual and collective、Important means of reflected institutional ethical care and resource sharing。It makes human society and cosmic order in harmony，At the same time, it also provides bet365 Play online games governance -based governance methods。It can be said，The understanding and attention of the "gift" varies from the author and the historical environment。

Among contemporary thinkers，It is necessary to mention Byung-Chul Han，The latest book "The Capacity of the Rites: The World" presents the ritual with the model of the family house -the home's residence helps us find our own positioning in the space，and arrange other landmarks around a center point。Similarly，The ritual introduced a cognitive distinction in the relationship between humans and time，to start a time planning。As Han Bingzhe said，"The disappearance of the ceremony" deeply destroyed the basic social phenomenon and relationship。To some extent，When the ceremony disappears，We will have no home。

　　Rise of young scholars

At present, more and more Chinese young scholars have begun to study rituals and classics to explain social models and mental models。2023，I edited a special issue in Religions，The theme is "The plot and rhetoric mode in religious narrative"。Except for me and another author，The rest of the authors are Chinese young scholars，Many of them may work or study at Fudan University today。Some authors in Shanghai's academic institutions such as Shanghai Social Sciences、Shanghai Maritime University、East China Theological Seminary for teaching or research，Another young scholar has just begun to teach at Zhejiang University。These young scholars show their vitality in the study of classic and religious anthropology，This is not a new phenomenon。In southern China，Many temples are associated with rivers and commercial exchanges to form a religious network，This model is Bet365 lotto review different from the religious network formed by village -based villages in northern China，Therefore, you need to create a new concept to understand the religious structure of southern China。and，Religious groups in southern China are in -depth and frequent。，Many Chinese young scholars are proficient in classics，This tradition has maintained to this day，They have accumulated deep professional knowledge in the classic research field，New methods to get to understand the text mode，More keen sense of religious meaning in different classic texts。

The paper in the special issue of "Religion" shows the latest research methods in this field。For example，Analysis of the structural analysis of the text，Chinese scholar Fu Boxi studied "Mencius" (and other ancient Chinese texts) how to give water elements a nearly sacred position，This status is highlighted through a narrative mode that follows the water cycle。Water cycle reveals the reality of the ground and the sky: the characteristics of water attention (humility、Soft、Hidden power under the weak appearance) allows observers to better understand their "heart"，and the close connection between the heart and the sky。，These metaphors have the ability to transform，They aim to trigger changes in subject consciousness，These changes will be reflected in one person to distinguish、Decision、Action (or inaction) method。

Korean scholar Liu Yingding's research core is also the text of "Mencius"。According to its research，Note that the Korean dynasties of "Mencius" did not make the content of "Mencius" with its rhetoric。They think，Identify the characteristics of various rhetoric，Especially Bet365 app download the mode of text composition，Almost in acceptance and absorbing the way of "Mencius"。In other words，Text mode reveals the way of operating in all real things。

Chinese scholar Liu Sha focuses on the educational book "Children's Education" written by the Italian Jesuit Vagnone in 1632。Gao Dizhi uses animals to love futures，Explain that human beings need to take the education of children seriously，and the model they need to follow up。Gao Izhi established a world from animal world to sage world、Then go to the progressive relationship of the sage world，This sublimation structure combines the relevant explanation of Confucian and Catholicism。Here，This increasingly obvious rhetoric is extended into an overall narrative，Explain the continuity between nature and supernatural world。

　　Dialogue between different civilizations

Imagine，When we put different traditional classic texts to read together，What will happen? What changes will the readers occur during reading?，Can it provide us with a new angle? How to look at each culture?，Whether to give the former a new revelation，so that we can move towards the era of global wisdom?

In the long river of history，Different ritual traditions form a hidden dialogue in mutual contact。The encounter of the ceremony created a new meaning，especially so today。The ritual is not "spoken" but "alive"，In a shared social space，Various traditional rituals do not contrary。The parallel of rituals often bring unconscious changes to each other，They are intertwined with each other。In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty，The evolution of Christian funeral in China is an excellent example: Confucian and folk elements are gradually integrated into Catholic etiquette。

More generally，The ceremony Bet365 lotto review will help shape our relationship in time and space。Some scholars believe that "Ritual Convision" can become a cross -cultural、New expression of dialogue between cross -faith and cross -communities。On the contrary，Cross -cultural dialogue can also be regarded as a special form of ritual: Dialogue needs to establish and comply with oral communication rules，Need to respect each other，You need to share。When the exchange rules are established and followed，Our social space and spiritual space gradually expand。Dialogue is basically a continuous development language game，Its rules can be continuously modified and enriched with the consent of both parties interactive。Misunderstanding in the dialogue usually occurs when a party modifys the rules of communication by itself and is too confident in understanding each other。Through strict compliance with its rules，The ritual of dialogue will gradually enrich the communication between participants。So，Following "Power of Etiquette" is not just a methodology problem，It is still an ethical and programmatic problem，Because the vitality and quality of our daily rituals expressed and determined the vitality and quality of our interpersonal and social communication。

In short，Dialogue between different cultural and text，Shouldn't it be the form of "ritual"? Could this conversation not follow the rules (cautious、polite、Follow the details)? Can't this method overcome the concept of excessive rationality and excessive utilitarian dialogue?，If there is no ceremony to promote the expansion of the dialogue，Can the dialogue really happen? So，All allow us to continue to explore between rituals bet365 Play online games and classics，New problems and new discoveries obtained in the process of gradually revealing the development of social models and mental models through research。
