Several questions about the study of Yanhuang culture

Author Du Xuanfeng

The Chinese nation is an ancient nation, and in the process of thousands of years of historical development, it has created a Chinese culture that has amazed the world and achieved a splendid and brilliant Chinese civilization. Under the new historical conditions, how to cultivate and consolidate the national spirit of one's own nation, how to improve the overall quality of the descendants of Yanhuang, how to enhance the soft power of the nation in the information age, and how to let the national spirit of "unremitting self-improvement" and "thick moral carrying" give it new connotations in the new period are important issues facing every Yanhuang cultural person. In fact, the pursuit of its distinct national characteristics, adapting to the continuous development of the times, and accepting and absorbing new cultures have always been the development trend of Yanhuang culture, and it is also the direction of the efforts of generations of Yanhuang culture researchers. On the whole, at this stage of studying Yanhuang culture, we should pay attention to the following aspects.

First, we must recognize the importance of yanhuang culture research.

Yanhuang culture is the spiritual bloodline of the sons and daughters of China, the "soul" of the nation, the essence of Chinese culture, the spiritual homeland of the descendants of Yanhuang, the source of our national cohesion, and the value pursuit of the descendants of Yanhuang. It embodies the ideological and spiritual activities carried out by the Chinese nation since ancient times in resisting foreign aggression and building a beautiful homeland, and the rational and peaceful way of thinking formed by this is a cultural achievement that has been precipitated for thousands of years.

"People must have some spirit", this spirit is the courage to be more and more courageous, the courage to persevere, the confidence to face difficulties and obstacles, and to face difficulties. In this world that advocates the law of the jungle, if a nation wants to survive and develop, it must have a high fighting spirit and an indomitable spirit of struggle, as long as it has these qualities, it will make this nation invincible. On the contrary, if a nation does not have lofty aspirations and lofty ideals, it will have no national spirit to forge ahead, it will completely lose its cohesion and combat effectiveness, and this nation will have no vitality and will not stand among the nations of the world.

Yanhuang culture is the core of Chinese culture, the origin and root of Chinese culture, which drives the development and progress of other cultures, and is the soul of Chinese culture. For the sake of the Chinese nation for thousands of generations, it is the unshirkable responsibility of every Chinese son and daughter to study and inherit the Yanhuang culture. Since the beginning of Yanhuang culture, that is, "Xianyanhuang culture", the working people of successive dynasties have conducted in-depth and extensive research on Yanhuang culture, achieved remarkable results, and influenced and promoted the development of chinese ethnic cultures. Therefore, we must inherit and carry forward the Yanhuang culture well, let the Chinese civilization illuminate the whole world, and serve the unity and progress of the people of the world.

Second, we must recognize the urgency and necessity of the study of Yanhuang culture.

Any great nation in the world has an excellent national culture as a support, and if there is no excellent national culture, this nation will have no soul, no cohesion, and no creativity. Yanhuang culture belongs to the ancestral culture and is an important source of Chinese national culture, which condenses the great national spirit of Yanhuang descendants and runs through the various historical processes of the development of the Chinese nation. It is broad and profound, rich in connotation, and is the soul of our nation.

In the course of historical development, the Chinese nation is a federation with rich connotations formed through the long-term exchanges and integration of various ethnic groups living here, and has a strong and tenacious cohesion. There are many factors that maintain this cohesion, and the Yanhuang culture, which has gradually enriched since the "xianyanhuang culture", is one of the main factors. It is the internal force that maintains the survival and development of the Chinese nation and is a powerful magnetic field for the unity and progress of the sons and daughters of China. Over the past few thousand years, in this land, although it has experienced countless dynastic changes and several political divisions, complete reunification has always been the general tone of China's historical process, which has made the Chinese nation more and more consolidated, the ties between various nationalities have become closer and closer, and it has slowly condensed into a complete and inseparable unified whole.

This cohesion is constantly developed and strengthened with the evolution and progress of the Chinese nation, and in history it is also one of the most important factors in maintaining the internal cohesion of the Chinese nation, which has enabled the Chinese nation to continue to grow and develop in its difficult and tortuous historical evolution. However, this deductive mechanism has gradually been broken with the opening of the door of modern history and the advancement of the modernization process. The main manifestations are the establishment of national identity in Chinese society since the 20th century, political and ideological choices, changes in internal cohesion, and the transformation of the economic foundation. Obviously, these changes cannot fully guarantee that the Chinese nation has such a strong cohesion. Especially in the information age, all kinds of foreign cultures are impacting our traditional culture and affecting the development of our national culture, and some people with ulterior motives have also affected the unity and progress of the nation by using some undesirable things. Therefore, the problems and deficiencies in this change require us to carefully analyze and study and take practical countermeasures. Otherwise, it will be impossible to ensure that the cohesion of the Chinese nation will be further enhanced under the new historical conditions.

Third, strengthen the systematicness of the study of Yanhuang culture, and correctly handle several problems in the research.

First of all, correctly handle the relationship between Yanhuang culture and traditional Chinese culture, and pay attention to the systematic and logical nature of research. In the past 5,000 years, China's social form has changed several times, and the Chinese nation has continued to develop in material civilization, spiritual civilization and social management. In the land of China with the Han nationality as the main body, the cultures of various nationalities and regions have integrated and developed together, forming a rich and colorful traditional Chinese culture. The Chinese Civilization Pack contains not only Yanhuang culture, but also traditional Chinese culture. The Yanhuang era is not only the beginning of Yanhuang culture and traditional Chinese culture, but also the beginning of Chinese civilization. Therefore, the origin and connotation determine that Yanhuang culture and traditional Chinese culture are both the same and different.

Yanhuang culture has a broad sense, middle sense and narrow sense of the distinction, the broad sense of Yanhuang culture refers to the Beginning of the Yanhuang Period, successively, stretching to the present; the narrow sense of Yanhuang culture refers to the yanhuang second emperor in the era of the culture that occurred, it is the foundation and source of Yanhuang culture, can be understood as "pre-Yanhuang culture"; the Yanhuang culture in the middle sense is the inheritance, promotion and expansion of Yanhuang culture, its content is relatively broad. Therefore, part of the culture we are learning and exploring now is traditional Chinese culture.

Secondly, we should dig deep into ancient documents and historical materials, enrich and improve the role of archaeology and anthropology in the study of Yanhuang culture, and actively excavate folklore and folklore materials to serve the research of Yanhuang culture. The study of Yanhuang culture includes many aspects, the most important of which is archaeology and anthropological research. Because the Yanhuang culture is an important part of the study of Ancient Chinese History and the Origin of Civilization, its research results have attracted widespread attention from people and have become one of the hot spots in the field of historiography. Since the reform and opening up, with the use of new scientific and technological means, the ability of archaeology, anthropological discovery and research has been continuously enhanced, and many new achievements have been made in the study of Yanhuang culture.

Therefore, we must be good at using scientific and technological means, using new knowledge and new abilities to treat historical documents and archaeological discoveries cautiously, and use the new evidence found to further reveal the legends of the ancient period. For example, the relevant content about the background of the "Five Emperors" activities can gradually restore the background of the era in which they live in the archaeological documents and historical materials. It is necessary to make the majority of researchers realize that only by combining the knowledge of literature and historical materials, archaeological materials and other related disciplines, as well as folklore and folklore materials, can we fully reproduce the style of the ancient era of the Yanhuang period, which is the correct way to study the Yanhuang culture.

In addition, it is necessary to encourage exploration and controversy, and create a relaxed and harmonious research atmosphere. Yanhuang culture research is a serious scientific research, and it must have a scientific method, rigorous and positive attitude towards it. Carrying out academic controversy is an important way to enliven the academic atmosphere and promote academic exchanges. Therefore, we should discuss the hot issues in the study of Yanhuang culture, allow exploration and controversy, actively exchange academic information, and combine the sacrifice activities to the Yellow Emperor and the YanDi to enliven the academic atmosphere.

This kind of academic exchange must be based on reality, and must be closely centered on the core of Yanhuang culture research. People from different disciplines and different fields who are related to the study of Yanhuang culture can be invited to participate. Learn from each other in exchanges, clarify right and wrong in exchanges, explore solutions to problems in exchanges, and collide with sparks of ideas in exchanges. Its purpose is to have a more scientific and practical understanding of Yanhuang culture and better serve the research of Yanhuang culture.

Such exchanges must be positive and open, premised on the potential of research. Starting from the disciplinary system and research concept of Yanhuang culture research, we build ways to solve problems from different angles, so as to enrich and improve the research connotation of Yanhuang culture research, continuously introduce academic research results, and improve the quality of results.

Under the new historical conditions, many new situations and new problems have emerged, and at the same time, the study of Yanhuang culture has given many new connotations. Therefore, when we study Yanhuang culture, we must stand under new historical conditions and treat it seriously with a new perspective, a vision of development, and an attitude of reform. Only in this way can we adapt ourselves to the development of the situation and better serve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
