Since the new era，The concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind has achieved all-round progress、Pioneering and fruitful results，Joining the Belt and Road Initiative、Global Development Initiative、Global Security Initiative、Global civilization initiative takes root，Contributed bet365 free bets wisdom to cope with global challenges，At the same time, it attracted widespread attention and research from experts and scholars at home and abroad。Revolving around these initiatives and the bet365 free bets concepts contained in them，Our reporter interviewed Agshin Aliyev, director of the Azerbaijani Language Teaching and Research Section, School of Asia, Beijing Foreign Studies University。

As the founder of the Azerbaijani language major at Beijing Foreign Studies University，Aliyev is committed to directly translating bet365 free bets classics into Azerbaijani，Such as "The Analects" and "Tao Te Ching"，Let Azerbaijani readers no longer have to rely on Russian、English and other third-party languages，You can intuitively and comprehensively understand the true Confucianism and bet365 free bets culture。Translated through ancient bet365 free bets books，Aliyev also built a bridge for cultural exchanges and mutual learning between Azerbaijan and China。

　　“Harmony” and the bet365 free bets

"While reading "The Analects of Confucius"，What impressed me most was the concept of ‘Harmony in diversity’。" Aliyev told reporters。“Harmony without difference” pursues a harmonious and harmonious relationship with the people around you。In most books，“Harmony without difference” is explained as “achieving overall harmonious coexistence on the basis of respecting the differences and diversity of things”。In other words，Don’t discriminate against other cultures just because they are different from ours。In addition，Confucius’ “harmony” emphasizes the harmony between heaven and man、The sum bet365 free bets group and ourselves、The sum of oneself and others。Confucius is known as one bet365 free bets most respected figures in the world，No coincidence。

Aliyev said: “When I saw President Xi Jinping’s global civilization initiative in news reports，I immediately thought of Confucius’ thought of “harmony without uniformity”。”The Global Civilization Initiative is to provide exchanges and cooperation to the international community、A platform to build peace。Currently，There are still conflicts in some regions and countries，The main reason is that they don’t understand each other、Mutual distrust。Global Civilization Initiative emphasizes inclusive coexistence of different civilizations、Exchange and mutual learning，Promoting the modernization process of human society、It plays an irreplaceable role in the prosperity of world civilization and the blooming of a hundred flowers。The future and destiny of all countries today are closely linked，Building a community with a shared future for mankind is the requirement bet365 free bets times，Responding to the voices bet365 free bets people bet365 free bets world，It is also the basic purpose of China’s foreign policy。

Aliyev continued，Global Civilization Initiative advocates respect for the diversity of world civilizations、Peaceful coexistence，It is the "China Plan" designed for the great unity of the people of the world。What happened during the COVID-19 epidemic is the best proof，During the epidemic，Although I am also in trouble，But China still provides assistance to more than 160 countries，Including the implementation of thousands of complete aid and material assistance projects，Carried out tens of thousands of technical cooperation and human resources development projects，Trained more than 400,000 personnel of various types in developing countries。I still remember that a bet365 free bets expert team also went to Azerbaijan to participate in treatment、Epidemic prevention and training work。During the epidemic，China’s global contribution to the fight against the epidemic demonstrates its exchanges with world civilizations、The beautiful vision of peaceful development and building a healthy society。

　“I believe that the global civilization initiative and the building of a community with a shared future for mankind will bring cultural exchanges to the international community、Cultural blend、A new situation of people-to-people bonds。We must study these initiatives in depth and implement them unremittingly。" bet365 free bets appealed。

　　Comparison bet365 free bets "Tao" and the cultures of various countries

In the process of translating "The Analects" and "Tao Te Ching"，bet365 free bets tried his best to compare the two，Find similarities and differences，Find commonalities from Azerbaijani culture。

"I am particularly interested in the two kinds of "virtue" proposed by Confucius and Laozi respectively, and the central concept of Laozi's philosophy, "Tao"。" bet365 free bets pointed out，In many languages，There are some difficulties in translating "Tao" and "De"。One reason is，Although the word "Tao" has the same symbolic form throughout the "Tao Te Ching"，But in different sentences，The meanings expressed are different。Before translation，The translator must first collect and refer to discussions about the Tao Te Ching and the opinions of scholars，Then use the accurate translation form in different text contexts。Some people think，In "Tao Te Ching"，“Tao” appears in both the form of noun and verb，This also increases the difficulty of translation。So "Tao" is very interesting as a philosophical concept，More interesting as a translation object。"Tao" has roads in different chapters、Guidelines、Rule、Method etc.。I said it cannot be named，It means it has many meanings，So it cannot be described in one word。Because "Tao" is invisible，So we can’t see or touch，This also shows that "Tao" exists forever。

What’s interesting，In Azerbaijani，The original meaning of "道" (road) is "yol"。The Azerbaijani word "yol" with multiple meanings sometimes also means "method" and "law"。Aliev thinks，From this point of view，The literal translation "道" is the most appropriate。"I think，China’s ‘Tao’ can be compared with related factors in cultures around the world。‘Tao’ not only represents Laozi，It is also the core concept of bet365 free bets traditional culture。I hope to further study the relationship between ‘Tao’ and bet365 free bets folk customs and beliefs、Issues such as the relationship between ‘Tao’ and ancient Zoroastrian beliefs and customs in Azerbaijan。”

　　The Silk Road witnesses exchanges and mutual learning between bet365 free bets and Arab civilizations

After the “One Belt, One Road” initiative was proposed in 2013，Azerbaijan is the first Central Asian country to sign a cooperation agreement with China on jointly building the “Belt and Road”。Aliyev pointed out，The friendship between Azerbaijan and China has a long history。Since the opening bet365 free bets Silk Road，The two countries have established trade and cultural exchange relations。The friendship between Azerbaijan and China has never been blocked by time or distance，Always a "confidant in the sea"，The relationship of "the world is as close as our neighbor"。The ancient exchanges between the two countries are reflected in literature、Art、Language、Daily life, etc.。

Aliyev mentioned，"As everyone knows，The ancient Silk Road was the most dazzling stage for the exchange and integration of civilizations in human history，It condenses the economy bet365 free bets long historical period bet365 free bets Eurasian continent、Politics、Culture、The evolution of society，Witnessed the exchange and integration of material civilization and spiritual civilization between the East and the West。On the ancient Silk Road，Product exchange、Cultural intersection、Civilized and inclusive、Humanities Exchange、Technology Interaction，People from all countries along the route have jointly created mutual economic benefits、A great epic movement of mutual enlightenment between humanities。As the hub bet365 free bets ancient Silk Road，Azerbaijan has made an important contribution to the development of this global transportation network”。

According to Aliyev，Azerbaijan as the radiating point of East-West trade，Transporting oil from the West and the Caucasus to the East、Carpet、raw silk、Silk fabric、Cotton、Weapons、Dried fruits、Salt、Gem、Jewelry、Alum、Saffron、Natural dyes、Painted pottery、Wooden utensils、Nonferrous metals、Caviar, etc.；Meanwhile，Sending pottery from China and Central Asian countries to the West、Spice、Silk、Jade、Exotic fruits, etc.。Until now，Azerbaijani pottery vessels are still called "?Zhiini qab” (bet365 free bets utensils)，The frequent and prosperous commercial exchanges on the China-Arab ancient Silk Road can be seen。

Aliyev said，For Eastern and Western merchants，Azerbaijan is a trade hub on the Silk Road，More like today's "logistics distribution center"。But behind the frequent exchanges between businessmen，Intellectuals in Azerbaijan also took this opportunity to learn about the splendid bet365 free bets culture。bet365 free bets Philosophy、Medicine、Literature、Various advanced technologies、Science、Traditional literature and art、Sports and other movements have left a deep impression on the Azerbaijani people in different eras。So，Since the opening of the Silk Road，The “image of China” appears in Azerbaijani literature。This is also the initial exchange of literature between Azerbaijan and China on the Silk Road。The image of the East "with bet365 free bets origin" appeared in the writings of Azerbaijani poets and writers，Gradually，Metaphors related to China also appear in oral folk literature and the works of some famous writers，For example, "bet365 free bets Musk", "bet365 free bets Beauty", "bet365 free bets White", "bet365 free bets Utensils", etc.。Words related to the image of "China" generally have a positive character、Praise。

The history of language exchanges between China and Azerbaijan is also very long。Aliyev gave an interesting example: This year is the Year of the Dragon in the bet365 free bets Lunar Calendar，In bet365 free bets mythology, dragons are creatures with mysterious powers，It is a totem complex with snake as the main body。Snake is "ilan" in Azerbaijani (and languages ​​related to Azerbaijani)，The second syllable "lan" of this word is probably related to the bet365 free bets "龙 (lonɡ)"。In addition，Azerbaijani folk oral literature and written literature have created a large number of bet365 free bets images，These all show that the exchanges between the two ancient civilizations have a long history。

　　Looking for commonalities among bet365 free bets

Aliyev thinks，“When comparing cultures around the world, we need to look for commonalities”。Although Azerbaijani and bet365 free bets cultures each have their own uniqueness，But the cultures of the two countries, which have been passed down from generation to generation, have many things in common。From a macro perspective，Both cultures are inclusive、Sustainability、Diversity、Integration、Cohesion、Inheritance、Conservatism, etc.；From a micro perspective，The people of the two countries have more in common in traditional culture。Both countries belong to the Eastern Cultural Circle，From the perspective of traditional family concept，People of both countries attach great importance to filial piety to their elders、Respect family members、Raising children, etc.。

"The two countries also have many things in common in traditional festivals，I like to compare the bet365 free bets Spring Festival with Azerbaijan’s Nowruz (Spring Festival)。The analysis of specific festival customs can be found in New Year Greetings、Sweeping dust、The two cultures have many common characteristics in terms of New Year’s Eve dinner and other aspects。Recently discovered，In some places in China, bonfires are lit during the Spring Festival，People jumping from above。This is an indispensable part of the Nowruz customs in Azerbaijan。" Aliyev introduced。In addition，The Azerbaijani people also value folk medical methods as much as the bet365 free bets，Folk remedies and herbal medicines passed down from generation to generation are still widely used。Respect guests、The two countries also have a lot in common in terms of traditional wedding customs。

Aliyev mentioned，Contemporary Azerbaijan and China have more common goals，Joining the Belt and Road Initiative、Promote the construction bet365 free bets “middle corridor”、Prosperous Silk Road Culture、Deepening exchanges and mutual learning between civilizations are important aspects bet365 free bets joint efforts bet365 free bets two countries。
