As early as the 16th century,Chinese classics (such as the Confucian classic "The Analects of Confucius") were introduced abroad。The Chinese outstanding cultural thoughts and spirit contained in these classics are also recognized by foreign (including the West and Far East)、Accept。In recent years,About ecological civilization、Discussion of Confucianism and ecological linguistics, whether it is domestic or foreign,Always attracted much attention。Ecological civilization is a topic that everyone pays attention to,Because of its relationship with each of us。Today,We want to tell the Chinese story of ecological civilization,First of all, we must clarify the essence and connotation of traditional Chinese culture and ecological thoughts。

  Confucian culture"People -oriented" ecological thought

It can be said,The core of Chinese philosophy is the problem of "life",That is the problem of harmonious relationship between man and nature。Chinese philosophy cannot leave naturally and talk about problems,Not to form any humanistic tradition and spirit in the opposition between man and nature。The spirit of Chinese philosophy is the humanistic spirit developed in the harmonious unity of man and nature。The ecological thought and humanistic spirit of the Chinese have essential differences with the humanisticism of the West。

There are many statements bet365 live casino games about ecological thoughts in Confucian culture,For thousands of years, it has always affected the life of Chinese people。"The Analects of Confucius · Ready Article" is recorded in "Zi Fishing and Not Outline",Say Confucius fishing with fishing rods without fishing nets,The implicit meaning is not greedy、Take it on demand。"The Analects of Confucius · Township Party" has this record: "厩。Zi retreat,said: ‘hurting people? ‘Do n’t ask the horse。"Malaysian sheds are missing,Confucius retreats and rushed back to ask if someone was injured,instead of asking if you hurt the horse。Why is this? We can find the answer from Wang Yangming's point of view。There is such a record in "Tranquility Record · Chandhong Record": We have the same love for beasts and plants and plants,But we use grass and trees to raise beasts; we have the same love for people and beasts,But we slaughtered beasts to support loved ones、Sacrifice ancestor、Enrollment guests;,But if there is only one cricket and one bean custard,People can live alive when people eat,Destry if you don't eat it,But we can't save two people at the same time,Encountered this situation,We can only save loved ones,Give up passers -by。So,Wang Yangming thinks,The thickness mentioned in "University",It is a natural and orderly (organized) on the conscience,Inspealless,This is called meaning,Follow this order,It is called ritual; understanding that this order is called wisdom; from beginning to end, this order is called letter。Whether it is between the beasts and the plants,Still slaughtering Bet365 app download beasts to raise relatives or between relatives and passers -by,You must choose when you can't two in all time,When the choice, you have to choose from,This is the truth,It is also a natural article on conscience。Some scholars think,Wang Yangming advocates rationally use all things under the observation of the realm of all -in -one;。People are a component of nature,People to survive,It is fully understandable to maintain your own survival and development from your own environment.,It is a very reasonable requirement。So,In the history of human development,Never deny the legitimacy of the matter required for life from nature。

Confucianism emphasizes the importance of man and the important location of people in the universe,Affirm the inherent value of all things in the world,Also requires people to treat nature with a heart love、Treating the environment、Treat others,Pay attention to the humanity of heaven and humanity。Although people and other life are given by nature,But people are different from other lives,People have moral consciousness,Reception,There is a language。The essence of Confucianism is "people -centered",Pay attention to the important position of people in all things,People are the most spiritual and most valuable of all things,In terms of the relationship between man and nature,The role of a person is critical。The "people -centered" of Confucianism is said to be centered on people's "problems",instead of people's "interests" as the center。

Principles of Harmonious discourse analysis

In the process of ecological linguistics research,According bet365 live casino games to the context of China,Put forward the concept of "harmonious discourse analysis",It is believed that in the analysis of ecological discourse,To adhere to "people -oriented"。We believe in traditional Chinese ecological thoughts such,Think of animals、Plants, etc.、Protection、Cherish。But in the choice of people and animals,The first choice is people。This is "people -oriented",This is consistent with the purpose of serving the people and the people's longing for a better life as the people.。

Analysis of ecological discourse on the premise of "people -oriented",You can start with the following three principles: the principle of conscience、Principles of closeness and constraints。Principles of these principles,It is mainly based on the cultural thoughts of traditional Chinese culture and socialist characteristics of the new era。The core of Chinese Confucian ecological wisdom is virtue、benevolence,Through the mind and know the sky,The sky is connected with people,Human nature is "where the heavens are with",The nature of human be good is based on。So,Proposal "Heaven and Man Unity",Its essence is "the unity of the main and the guest",Affirm the harmony and unity of human and nature,Symbolic coexistence。This is the basis for the principle of conscience。

The core of Confucianism is not in general pursuit of natural harmony,and the unity of ordering natural harmony and difference; therefore,"Harmony" contains "difference",Various life forms in nature can be understood as a from near and far、series from kiss to sparse。This is the basis for the principle of closeness。

bet365 best casino games The restriction exists at three levels,First, the constraints of personal conscience and self -cultivation to personal behavior,Second is the restriction of the "township regulations" of the community (community),Three is society、The legal system of the organization。One person、A community、A society、Is a country sufficient civilization、Whether there is ecological consciousness,It can be measured from the formulation and implementation of the rules。This is the basis for restricting principles。

In the "Lawrtic Ecological Linguistics Manual" published in 2018,Editor's proposal,Chinese scholars explore ecological linguistics from the perspective of philosophy,Ecological Linguistics and Confucianism and Taoism have the same thing,All are the issues that focus on the harmonious coexistence of people and nature; in the next decades,More research in this area。The first editor -in -chief of the book Professor Alwin Fill is the founder of international ecological linguistics,In the main report of the conference of the 4th International Ecological Linguistics Symposium,Further explaining Confucian and Taoist culture、The relationship between ecological civilization and ecological linguistics。Professor Arran Stibbe, Chairman of the International Ecological Linguistics Society, in "Ecological Linguistics: Language、The Story of Ecology and our Belief and Practice "also talks about the internal connection between Confucian and Taoist ecological thoughts and" harmonious discourse analysis "。I am in the bet365 Play online games main report of this international seminar,Title of "Analysis from Ecological Criticism to Harmony Dialogue" as the title,Discussing why "Harmony Dialogue Analysis" in Chinese context,Goal of analysis from harmonious discourse、Philosophy foundation、Theoretical guidance、Principles、Method、Example display and other aspects of the analysis framework。

Entering China in the new era,The national strategic position of the construction of ecological civilization is even more prominent。Digging the essence of traditional Chinese culture,Stand at the forefront of the new era,From the perspective of China, look at the ecological problems faced by humans,Use our subject's theory and method,Participate in the construction of ecological civilization,This is an important task in front of us。For ecological linguistics researchers,As long as we "think,Based on ecological linguistics; line,Tao of ecological linguistics ",Our research will definitely contribute to the construction of ecological civilization。At the same time,It can also better tell the Chinese story of ecological civilization internationally。
