  Macroscopically speaking,Guangdong’s traditional culture,In China’s traditional bet365 offer pattern,Belongs to the upper-middle level;Modern culture in Guangdong,In China’s modern bet365 offer pattern,belongs to the advanced ranks。About Guangdong is a“bet365 offer Desert”’s statement,Whether it is judged from the perspective of modern culture,Let’s judge from the perspective of traditional culture,All of them cannot be established。

Since spring 2010,With the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China、The provincial government proposed“Building a culturally strong province”,The once silent“Guangdong bet365 offer Desert Theory”Coming up again。Some officials、Scholars answering questions from the media and netizens,Although we do not admit that Guangdong is now ";bet365 offer Desert”,But admitted“In terms of traditional culture,Guangdong does have a tendency of desertification”。I think,This is due to the lack of understanding of Guangdong’s traditional culture。According to my inspection and research,Guangdong is not only not "" in terms of traditional culture;Desert”,Even in some fields, it is still a rare“Oasis”。

Examine and evaluate the bet365 offer achievements and status of a place,Can have different angles。This article is from the perspective of bet365 offer geography,By ancient writers、Ancient Academy、National Key bet365 offer Relics Protection Unit、National historical and bet365 offer city (famous village)、Geographic distribution of the five bet365 offer elements of national intangible bet365 offer heritage,To examine and evaluate Guangdong’s achievements in traditional culture and its status in the country,In response to the so-called“Guangdong bet365 offer Desert Theory”。

  From the geographical distribution of ancient writers

There are great differences between ancient Chinese writers and contemporary writers。In a nutshell,Ancient writers,None of them specialize in literature,They are all versatile people,They are all well-educated people,That is, the most cultured people in ancient times。

The number of writers distributed in a place,Reflects the quality of a place’s natural and bet365 offer environment,It is also one of the important indicators to measure the level of bet365 offer development of a place。

Compiled by Tan Zhengbi、Statistics of the "Dictionary of Chinese Writers" published by Guangming Book Company in 1934,Influential in ancient China、Among the 6375 writers whose place of origin can be tested,114 people from Guangdong。Although this number is not much,But in 32 provinces across the country、City、Autonomous Region (including Taiwan,Excluding Hong Kong and Macau) ranked 15th。

We don’t want to simply think,Beijing ranked behind Guangdong、Gansu and other 17 provinces (cities)、District) is not as good as that of Guangdong,But it is impossible for us to conclude that Guangdong is a ";bet365 offer Desert”’s conclusion!If Guangdong is a“bet365 offer Desert”,Then Beijing is ranked behind Guangdong、Gansu and other 17 provinces (cities)、District) What is it?

  From the geographical distribution of ancient academies

The academy is an institution of higher learning in ancient China,More than half are privately run,Nearly half of the government-run ones。From the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty,Academies have existed in China for more than a thousand years。Contents taught and researched in the academy,Mainly Confucian classics and works of Neo-Confucianists。In ancient times,Is there an academy in a place,How many academies are there,Not only reflects the school-running capabilities of the place,It also reflects the development level of academic culture in the place。

According to Wang Bingzhao's "Ancient Chinese Academy" (Commercial Press,1998 edition) book statistics,Among the 6385 academies in ancient China,Guangdong accounts for 446,In 31 provinces across the country、City、In autonomous regions and special administrative regions (including Taiwan、Hong Kong,Excluding Macau,Chongqing (included in Sichuan Province) ranks fifth,Second only to Jiangxi、Zhejiang、4 provinces of Sichuan and Hunan。If we admit that the academy is a high-level educational and academic bet365 offer institution,Then,Can we say,In higher education and academic culture,After the Song Dynasty,Especially in the Ming and Qing dynasties,Guangdong has entered the advanced ranks of the country?If Guangdong is a“bet365 offer Desert”,Then,Henan ranks behind Guangdong、Fujian、Beijing、Shanghai and other 26 provinces (cities)、District) What is it?

  From the geographical distribution of national key bet365 offer relics protection units

Human bet365 offer heritage includes tangible bet365 offer heritage and intangible bet365 offer heritage,Among them, material bet365 offer heritage (that is, those with history、bet365 offer relics of artistic and scientific value) also include three components: First, ";Immovable bet365 offer relics”,Including ancient ruins、Ancient Tombs、Ancient Building、Cave Temple、Stone carving、Mural、Important historical sites and representative buildings in modern times, etc.;The second is“Mobile bet365 offer relics”,Important objects from various eras in history、Artwork、Documentation、Manuscript、Books and materials, etc.;The third is“Historical and bet365 offer cities and neighborhoods、Village”,That is, those“In architectural style、Evenly distributed or with outstanding universal value in combination with environmental scenery”Historical and bet365 offer city、Neighborhoods and villages (see the "Notice of the State Council on Strengthening the Protection of bet365 offer Heritage",Promulgated on December 22, 2005)。

Just“Immovable bet365 offer relics”Let’s talk,In our country,Everything that matters,Or the highest level,Those listed as "ldquo by the State Council;National Key bet365 offer Relics Protection Unit”'s bet365 offer relics。According to statistics,1961—2006,The State Council has announced 6 batches of 2348“National Key bet365 offer Relics Protection Unit”,Guangdong has 66 of them,In 31 provinces across the country、City、Autonomous Region (excluding Hong Kong、Macau、Taiwan) ranked 14th。Although we cannot simply think,at“National Key bet365 offer Relics Protection Unit”’s ownership,Hunan after Guangdong、Anhui、Jiangxi、17 provinces including Shanghai、City、The culture of the autonomous region is not as developed as Guangdong,But anyway,It is impossible for us to conclude that Guangdong is a ";bet365 offer Desert”’s conclusion。If in “National Key bet365 offer Relics Protection Unit”, is actually still a“bet365 offer Desert”,Then the 17 provinces ranked behind Guangdong、City、What is an autonomous region?

  From the geographical distribution of national historical and bet365 offer cities and famous villages

According to statistics,1982—1994,The State Council has announced three batches of 99“National Historical and bet365 offer City”;2003 and 2005,The Ministry of Construction and the State Administration of bet365 offer Heritage announced two batches of 36“National Historical and bet365 offer Village”。Among them,In 31 provinces across the country、City、Autonomous Region (excluding Hong Kong、Macau、Taiwan);National Historical and bet365 offer City”中,Guangdong has 6,i.e. Guangzhou、Chaozhou、Zhaoqing、Foshan、Meizhou、Haikang (Leizhou),With Shandong、Shaanxi tied for second place,Second only to Henan、Jiangsu、Sichuan 3 provinces。In 18 provinces across the country、City、36&ldquo owned by the autonomous region;National Historical and bet365 offer Village”中,Guangdong actually has 5,Ranked first。

One in“National Historical and bet365 offer City”ranks second in the country in terms of ownership,at“National Historical and bet365 offer Village”The province that ranks first in the country in terms of possessions,He was actually called a“bet365 offer Desert”!If such a province is still a“bet365 offer Desert”,So the nationwide“bet365 offer Desert”That’s too many!

  From the geographical distribution of national intangible bet365 offer heritage

So-called intangible bet365 offer heritage,“Refers to various non-material forms that are closely related to people’s lives、Traditional bet365 offer expressions passed down from generation to generation,includes oral tradition、Traditional performing arts、Folklore activities, etiquette and festivals、Traditional folk knowledge and practices about nature and the universe、Traditional handicraft skills, etc.,And bet365 offer spaces related to the above traditional bet365 offer expressions。”(See the "Notice of the State Council on Strengthening the Protection of bet365 offer Heritage",Promulgated on December 22, 2005) Specifically,Intangible bet365 offer heritage mainly includes folk literature、Music、Dance、Traditional drama、Quyi、Acrobatics and Athletics、Folk Art、Traditional handicrafts、Traditional Medicine、10 categories including folklore。2006,The State Council announced the first batch of“National Intangible bet365 offer Heritage List”,Covering a total of 527 items in the above 10 categories,Guangdong has 22 items,In 31 provinces、City、Autonomous Region (excluding Hong Kong、Macau、Taiwan) ranked 6th。It can be seen that Guangdong is in“National Intangible bet365 offer Heritage”’s ownership is also very impressive。If you have this amount、Guangdong, which ranks so high, is still a “bet365 offer Desert“,Then the 25 provinces ranked behind Guangdong、City、What is an autonomous region?

The above is the geographical distribution of five bet365 offer elements,Inspected Guangdong’s position in the country,From this we can judge,Guangdong’s contribution to Chinese traditional culture,And its position in the pattern of traditional Chinese culture。

The growth of bet365 offer people cannot be separated from the influence of education and bet365 offer academic institutions (including academies),After a bet365 offer person grows up,will create various material bet365 offer achievements (including immovable bet365 offer relics and historical and bet365 offer cities、Famous villages) and intangible bet365 offer achievements,So the above five bet365 offer elements,Originally selected following the internal development logic of the culture,Not a random choice,It’s not about having anything”;shine”What。Anyone can pass their own perspective,Come to Guangdong’s traditional culture or modern culture,Make a specific investigation。I firmly believe,No matter what angle you look at the culture of Guangdong,It is impossible to conclude that Guangdong is a ";bet365 offer Desert“’s conclusion。

About Guangdong’s modern culture and its leading position in the country,People have talked about it a lot,I won’t repeat it。I will only talk about the traditional culture of Guangdong here。Macroscopically speaking,Guangdong’s traditional culture,In China’s traditional bet365 offer pattern,Belongs to the upper-middle level;Modern culture in Guangdong,In China’s modern bet365 offer pattern,belongs to the advanced ranks。About Guangdong is a“bet365 offer Desert“’s statement,Whether it is judged from the perspective of modern culture,Let’s judge from the perspective of traditional culture,All of them cannot be established。
